00:00The Lion and the Mouse
00:10Once upon a time, there lived a lion who ruled the forest.
00:16One day, after eating his meal, the lion fell asleep under a tree.
00:22A little mouse saw him and thought it would be fun to play on him.
00:28He began running up and down the sleeping lion.
00:32He ran up the tail and slid down the tail.
00:44The lion woke up angrily with a loud roar.
00:48He grabbed the mouse with his huge paw.
00:51The mouse struggled but could not escape.
00:54The lion opened his big jaws to swallow him.
00:57The mouse was very scared.
01:13The lion was so amused by the idea of the mouse being able to help him,
01:18that he lifted up his paw and let him go.
01:25You are lucky, my friend, that I've just eaten.
01:29Now go, but don't mess with me again, or I will make a meal of you.
01:38A few days later, the lion was roaming the jungle.
01:44Hunters set a trap to catch the lion.
01:49The hunters hid behind the tree, waiting for the lion to approach the trap.
01:52As he did, the hunters pulled the ropes and caught him in the net.
02:01The lion started to roar loudly and tried to escape.
02:05The hunters fastened the net.
02:12They went back to the village to bring a cart to transport the lion.
02:16The lion was still roaring loudly.
02:18All the animals, including the mouse, heard the roar.
02:21The king is in trouble. I must return the favor.
02:28He soon reached the lion.
02:31Don't worry, my king. I will set you free.
02:35He climbed up the trap and used his sharp little teeth to bite through the ropes.
02:49Finally, he freed the lion from the trap.
02:53The lion realized that even a little mouse can be a great help.
02:58Thank you, mouse. I will never trouble you again.
03:03Live happily in my forest. You saved a king's life.
03:07Now you are the prince of this forest.
03:11Thank you, king. Bye. See you soon.
03:15Oh, where are you going?
03:18Don't you want to play on me and slide down my tail?
03:31The mouse started jumping on his back and sliding down his tail.
03:37After a while, the hunters came back with a big cart to carry the lion.
03:42The lion and mouse saw them and started running towards them.
03:46The lion gave a big roar.
03:49The hunters were terrified and ran away back to the village.
03:59The lion and mouse became friends forever.
