The next day, he stood on one foot. He did not try to catch fish but pretended to look very sad.
The fish were surprised that the stork was not trying to catch them.
One young fish was very bold. She asked the Stork, “What is the matter? Why are you so sad? Why aren’t you catching us today? Are you not hungry?”
The stork replied, “I am hungry but am feeling very sad. I pity you all.”
“But why?” asked the curious fish.

The stork was fed up of eating fish every day, so he readily agreed to take the crab, for he loved crab meat.
The crab was too big to stay in the stork’s mouth, so the crab said, “Let me sit on your neck.” The stork agreed.
As the stork flew, the crab looked down and saw some dead fish lying on the ground. He also saw fish bones.
The crab realised that the stork was not good and helpful, but had killed the poor fish. So he thought of a plan to punish the evil stork.
He told the stork, “It is so nice of you to save me but I feel I should save my family also. Let us go back and I will show you where they are.”
The stork was greedy and thought that he would get some more crabs to eat. So he turned around to go back to the pond which they had left behind.
The stork asked, “Tell me, where is your family, crab?”
”Near the pond where we met,” said the clever crab. Kids Story English

The crab said, “I also have a duty to do. You told the fish that you would help them. But you have been killing all the fish. I have to end the life of Such a bad stork, as you have turned out to be.”
Just as they reached the pond, the crab bit the stork’s neck hard. The head of the stork fell off.
The dead stork and the crab fell down onto the ground. The crab got a bit hurt, but he was happy that he had done a good deed. He went and told the fish how the stork had killed the other fish.
