Un jour, un renard affamé est arrivé à la ferme, cherchant sa prochaine proie. Il a remarqué le coq intelligent et a commencé à élaborer un plan pour le capturer.
Le renard s’est approché du coq et lui a dit : “Mon cher ami, j’ai entendu dire que tu étais le plus intelligent des animaux de la ferme. J’aimerais apprendre de toi et devenir plus sage”.
Le coq a immédiatement compris que le renard ne voulait rien apprendre, mais plutôt le manger. Il a donc répondu : “Bien sûr, je serais heureux de partager ma sagesse avec toi. Mais avant cela, je dois aller chercher mes lunettes”.
Le renard, qui n’avait jamais entendu parler de lunettes pour coq, était perplexe mais a accepté de l’attendre.
Le coq a alors couru vers le poulailler, a averti toutes les poules du danger et les a incitées à se cacher. Puis, il est revenu voir le renard et a dit : “Je suis désolé, mais j’ai réalisé que j’ai laissé mes lunettes quelque part dans le poulailler. Je suis sûr que tu comprends”.
Le renard, ne voulant pas paraître ignorant, a acquiescé à sa demande et a attendu patiemment que le coq revienne avec ses lunettes. Mais le coq avait déjà sauvé les poules et s’était caché en lieu sûr.
Le renard a finalement réalisé qu’il avait été dupé et s’est enfui de la ferme, affamé mais respectueux de l’intelligence du coq.
Et depuis ce jour, le coq était considéré comme le plus intelligent de tous, ayant réussi à tromper un renard avec sa ruse ingénieuse.
On a large farm lived a very diverse group of animals. There were pigs, chickens, cows and sheep. But there was one animal that stood out from all the others, it was the rooster, which was renowned for its great intelligence.
One day a hungry fox came to the farm, looking for its next prey. He noticed the clever rooster and began to devise a plan to capture him.
The fox approached the rooster and said, “My dear friend, I heard that you are the smartest animal on the farm. I would like to learn from you and become wiser”.
The rooster immediately understood that the fox did not want to learn anything, but rather eat it. So he replied, “Of course, I would be happy to share my wisdom with you. But before that, I have to go and get my glasses”.
The fox, who had never heard of rooster glasses, was puzzled but agreed to wait for him.
The rooster then ran to the chicken coop, warned all the hens of the danger and urged them to hide. Then he came back to see the fox and said, "I'm sorry, but I realized I left my glasses somewhere in the henhouse. I'm sure you understand”.
The fox, not wanting to appear ignorant, acquiesced to his request and waited patiently for the rooster to return with his glasses. But the rooster had already saved the hens and hid in a safe place.
The fox finally realized he had been tricked and ran away from the farm, hungry but respectful of the rooster's intelligence.
And from that day the rooster was considered the smartest of all, having managed to deceive a fox with his ingenious cunning.
