Once a fox was walking in the jungle in search of some tasty food. He saw a bunch of ripe hanging from a vine, attached to the branches of a tree.

     The fox's mouth watered at their very sight and he decided to get the grapes in anyway.
     However, this was not an easy job. The bunch of grapes was hanging from a high branch. The fox jumped up, but he missed the grapes.

     He, then, walked back a short distance and took a running leap at the grapes. Still, he could not reach anywhere near it. The fox tried again and again, but it was of no use.

    The fox sat down, tired of his efforts and watched the grapes in anger. "What a fool i have been!" said the fox, "wasting my energy and time just for a few sour grapes."
