The elephant raised his leg to scratch his foot. A rabbit quickly jumped into this space. When the
elephant went to put his foot down, he felt something. He noticed the rabbit sitting there. To avoid crushing and hurting the rabbit, he held his leg up. The fire lasted for three days. Throughout the
three days the elephant kept his leg up.
