THE COW AND THE CARABAO

Long ago, a farmer had a carabao and a cow. The carabao was bigger but the cow worked just as hard. One day the farmer said, “I can get more from my farm if my carabao works all day and my cow works all night.” This went on for a month 'til finally, the carabao cried, “It is just too hot to work all day!” “Want to go for a swim?” asked the cow. “It will cool you off.” The carabao happily agreed. They went off without the farmer’s consent. Before swimming, they hung their skins on a tree branch. But it wasn’t long till the farmer went looking for them. Upon seeing the farmer, they rushed to put on their skins. In their rush, the carabao had worn the cow’s skin and the cow had worn the carabao’s skin. From then on, cows have sagging skin while carabaos have tight skin
