The buffalo was fed up of the monkey’s pranks, but he still was patient. The other animals of the forest saw this and wondered why the buffalo tolerated all the mischief. The elephant went to the buffalo and asked, “Why don’t you teach the monkey a lesson for his mischief?” The buffalo smiled at the elephant and replied, “I am thankful to the monkey for teaching me how to be patient.”
The monkey who was sitting on the tree top, heard this and felt ashamed. The monkey immediately came down to the buffalo and said, “Sorry, my dear friend for all the trouble that I gave you.” The buffalo and the monkey became good friends.
