The Lion's Share | A Fable About Power, Not Fairness

An aging lion, once mighty but now weakened, forms a hunting alliance with a cunning fox and a naive jackal. Together, they catch a bounty: a rooster, a lamb, and a foal. When it’s time to divide the spoils, the lion tests them. The jackal divides “fairly”—giving the foal to himself, the lamb to the fox, and the small rooster to the lion. The lion’s response is swift and fatal. Then the lion turns to the trembling fox and asks the same question. The fox, having just witnessed the jackal’s fate, replies: “Let the rooster be your breakfast, the lamb your lunch, and the foal your dinner.” The lion smiles and asks when he learned to divide so wisely. The fox’s chilling answer: “At the time of the jackal’s evening.” This is not a story about hunting. It’s a brutal lesson in understanding power, reading the room, and knowing that in the presence of a lion, there is no “fair share”—only the lion’s share. 🦁 Sometimes, wisdom isn’t about justice. It’s about survival. #Fable #Power #Wisdom #LionsShare #Survival #ShortStory #LifeLesson #AnimalTale #Justice #Caution #Folklore
