The Proud Deer Long ago in a jungle lived a young and proud deer.

He was very proud of his pair of large and beautiful antlers. Wherever he went, he would show off his antlers to the other animals. The animals agreed that the deers antlers were indeed beautiful. The deer also had four strong legs. He could run very fast with them. But he did not li e his own legs because they were thin. !ne day, some hunters were hunting for deer in the jungle. They wanted to get some antlers to hang up on the wal s of their homes. "ll the animals ran deeper into the jungle to escapee from the hunters. The deer ran the fastest. #nfortunately for the deer, its beautiful antlers got stuc between two branches. He could not free himself no matter how hard he tried. $oon the hunters came and caught him. The deer was very sad. His thin legs would have saved him if not for his beautiful antlers. We do not be too proud of oneself.
