The Great Book of Nature - THE RACCOON

The Great Book of Nature - Episode - THE RACCOON

Episode Summary:

The bear tells a story about a raccoon. A raccoon, being kind and generous by nature, comes to the aid of a wolf that begs him to remove a fish bone from its throat. Since the wolf is so insistent, the raccoon kindly lends a hand, but as soon as the wolf is free of its bone, it that demands that the raccoon hand over the fish he is taking home for his family. A no holds barred fight ensues, and the raccoon wins. In the second part of the episode, another wolf has caught a dog, a badger, a squirrel and a pig and plans to eat them one by one. Finally, after the ingenious dog makes a periscope, the four captives free themselves. They then end up in a stadium where a boxing match is in progress. Thanks to the periscope, the gang manages to watch the match without entering the stadium. The moral of the story is that it’s right to be generous and help others, but not at the expense of one’s own safety.
