The Fox and the Mosquitoes

The Fox and the Mosquitoes

A Fox after crossing a river got its tail entangled in a bush, and could not move. A number of Mosquitoes seeing its plight settled upon it and enjoyed a good meal undisturbed by its tail. A hedgehog strolling by took pity upon the Fox and went up to him. “You are in a bad way, neighbor,” said the hedgehog, “shall I relieve you by driving off those Mosquitoes who are sucking your blood?” “Thank you, Master Hedgehog,” said the Fox, “but I would rather not.” “Why, how is that?” asked the hedgehog. “Well, you see,” was the answer, ‘these Mosquitoes have had their fill, if you drive these away, and others will come with fresh appetite and bleed me to death.”
