EP 195: South Africa- Cock and Jackal; Elephant and Tortoise; Tortoises Hunting Ostriches; The Judgement of Baboon

#SouthAfrica #folklore

In the first story, Rooster tells Jackal to pray and in doing so is set free.

In the second and third, we learn why tortoises aren't good to eat.

In the fourth story, Tortoise thinks of a clever way to eat some ostriches.

And in the fifth story, Baboon is asked to make judgement over the ripping of the tailor's clothes. In doing so, he is foolish and loses his ability to talk.
