One day, a strong lion was suffering because a bone was stuck in his throat. He was in great pain and could not eat. A small woodpecker saw the lion and bravely offered to help. Even though the lion was powerful and dangerous, the woodpecker trusted him.

The woodpecker carefully went inside the lion’s mouth and removed the bone. The lion felt much better and was saved.

Later, when the woodpecker needed help, he went to the lion. However, the lion refused to help him and said that sparing the woodpecker’s life was already a reward.
