The Great Book of Nature - THE GOAT
Episode Summary:
A young goat and his grandfather are out looking for salt that is
essential for the survival of all the inhabitants of their village. It
seems their reserves have been carried away in a landslide, and the
situation has grown desperate. When a marine turtle appears in the
village looking for the root of the wild crocus with miraculous healing
properties, in order to save his sick grandson, it seems that their
problems are over. A deal is then struck: if the goat manages to find
the root, the turtle will supply the village with all the salt it
requires. After an unfortunate misunderstanding has been cleared up, the
turtle teaches the young goat and his grandfather how to obtain a
practically everlasting supply of salt by letting seawater evaporate in
special vats.
