The Jaguar and the Deer

• By Kristen and Jena

A deer went to look for a place to build himself
a house. There was also a jaguar who was out
looking for a place to set up a house . He came
to the same place the deer had chosen , and
thought he would build there also.
3
The next day the deer came and thoroughly cleared
the ground with his antlers. The tiger came later
and said It seems somebody is helping me. Then
he stuck some big poles in the ground and set up
the framework.
4
The next day the deer came back and when he saw
this, he said It seems somebody is helping me.
Then he covered the house with branches and made
two rooms, one for him and the other one for
whomever was helping him.
5
The next day the jaguar saw that the house was
finished. He went in one room and fell asleep.
The deer came later and went to sleep in the
other room.
6
One day the two came home at the same time. When
they saw each other, the jaguar asked the deer
Was it you who was helping me?The deer
answered Yes, it was me.Then the jaguar said
Lets live together.
7
The following morning the jaguar said Im going
hunting, so sweep the floor, prepare wood and
water, because Ill be hungry when I come back.
The jaguar went to the woods to hunt and got a
very large deer. He brought it home and said to
his companion Lets eat what I have caught.
But the deer didnt want to eat he was very much
afraid. He couldn't sleep all night long on
account of fear. Early the next morning he went
to the woods and met a very large jaguar. Later
he met a large bull and said to him I met a
jaguar who was bad-mouthing you. The bull went
looking for the jaguar and found him resting. The
bull came up to him slowly, leaped on top of him
and gored him. Then the deer went off dragging
the dead jaguar. When he got home, he said to his
companion Lets eat what I have caught..
8
The jaguar approached him, but he didnt eat he
was very frightened. That night he couldnt sleep
thinking about the deer killing jaguars and the
deer couldnt sleep thinking about the jaguars
killing deer. Both were very frightened.
9
At midnight as the deer moved his head, his
antlers struck the wooden walls of the house. The
jaguar and the deer were frightened by the noise,
and both of them ran out of the house without
stopping. And so the deer and the jaguar each
with his separate way.
