DescriptionEvery time the women would go cut plantains or to look for firewood, the tiger would devour them. One day a Woun took his wife in a cage and this way he was able to use her as bait in order to finish off the animal.

[Note: the tape box says that Audolino is the narrator, but the voice does not seem to change from previous recordings.]
