What is the moral of the 'Chanticleer and the Fox' full story?

The two main characters are Chanticleer, who is a rooster, and the fox.

The moral could be about the importance of keeping one's word. In the story, if the eagle breaks its promise to the fox, it leads to negative consequences. So it shows that honesty and integrity in relationships are crucial.

The moral could be that those who deceive will eventually be exposed. In the story, the fox might try to trick the monkey in some way, but the monkey may see through it in the end, teaching us about honesty and seeing through false pretenses.

The moral is that we should not be unkind or play tricks on others. Just like the fox did to the stork at first, and then the stork paid him back in the same way.

The moral is about treating others as you would like to be treated. The fox was inconsiderate when he served food in a way that was easy for him but difficult for the crane. Then, when the crane reciprocated with a meal served in a way that suited him but not the fox, the fox learned a hard lesson.

Well, in the story of the lion and the fox, the moral might be about survival. The fox, being the smaller and less powerful one, has to rely on its smarts. It shows that you don't always need to be the strongest to get by. You can use your brain to avoid danger and achieve your goals. Just like the fox does when it interacts with the lion. It doesn't directly oppose the lion's strength but finds ways around it through cleverness.

The moral could be that cunning and intelligence can help one survive. The fox uses its wits to avoid being tricked by the old lion who is trying to lure other animals to his den under false pretenses.

The moral is not to be flattered easily. The fox tricks the crow by flattering its voice to make it drop the cheese it has. So we should be cautious of false praise.

The story also shows that true understanding comes from the heart. The fox tells the Little Prince to 'see clearly' with the heart. This means that often, the most important things in life, like love and friendship, are not visible to the eyes but felt by the heart. It's a reminder that we should look beyond the surface.

We can probably expect some moral lessons as is common in stories about Chanticleer and the fox. Maybe it will teach about the danger of pride like the original fables do.
