The Maned Wolf and the Wolf's Fruit
(Lobo Guará e a Lobeira)
In this twist on The Fox and the Grapes, a Maned Wolf is strolling through the Brazilian savanna (Cerrado) when he spots a Wolf's Plant with some tempting fruit. He spends all his energy trying to get it but just can’t reach. Frustrated and still hungry, he finally gives up, telling himself the fruit probably wasn’t ripe anyway. What he doesn’t notice, though, is a little sapling nearby, full of ripe fruit, just waiting to be picked.
