Taxidermy Carrion Crow Perched on a Horned Skull
Photos
Description
A troublesome crow seated herself on the back of a Sheep. The Sheep, much against his will, carried her backward and forward for a long time, and at last said, "If you had treated a dog in this way, you would have had your deserts from his sharp teeth."To this the Crow replied, "I despise the weak and yield to the strong. I know whom I may bully and whom I must flatter and I thus prolong my life to a good old age.".
