As is well known the clever fox thought up the stratagem of throwing pebbles into the pot which caused the water to rise. The fox not only quenched his thirst but became a legend possibly in his own life time and for all ages to come. CROW & PANDA

This was of course long ago but there have always been foxs in subsequent generations who could claim direct descent from this illustrious fox. One particular fox (the unfortunate fox that we are talking about!) from this clan faced a similar crisis as his famous ancestor had once faced. Water had become increasingly scarce over the ages. In fact wars had been fought over water and even drinking water was being sold at a premium by corporations who, in league with ruling politicians, had managed to buy exclusive rights to water. Although a major portion of the CROW & PANDA
rain water was harvested by the corporations it could not be controlled fully because of technical difficulties. Most animals as well as humans without any means or influence (which of course puts them automatically in the category of animals!) depended on this rain water to quench their thirst. But of course it was illegal.
