Then he saw  a crane with a  long beak fishing by the river side. He went near him and requested him to bring out the bone from his throat with his beak. He also promised to give him a Delicious meal in return. The crane believed him  and  brought out the bone from his throat. Then the crane demanded a delicious meal but the wolf said that he could easily swallow him when he entered  his beak  into his  throat. He added  that he had  showed  him sympathy.
