Once upon a time, things looked a little different in the age of ancient animals. Dogs, friendly creatures, sported impressive horns, while goats roamed without any. Despite this difference, they coexisted harmoniously, living near humans and sharing a camaraderie.
However, the goats had a
slight practical advantage over their canine friends—they could easily access
their food without the encumbrance of horns. One day, an idea struck the dogs.
They proposed a swap: the goats could take their horns, enhancing their beauty,
while the dogs could do without. Enticed by the promise of newfound grace, the
goats agreed, taking on the horns of the dogs.
As the goats proudly
flaunted their new adornments, something shifted. Suddenly empowered, they
found themselves more capable of defending against adversaries. Meanwhile, the
dogs, now stripped of their horns, felt vulnerable, akin to hunters bereft of their
spears.
Realizing their grave
mistake, the dogs sought to reclaim their horns from the goats. But alas, the
goats, revelling in their newfound strength and protective capability, refused
to yield. The dogs' attempt at reconciliation fell on deaf ears.
Thus, the rift widened
between the dogs and the goats once friends became foes. The bitterness arising
from an ill-fated exchange overshadowed their shared past of amity and
cooperation. This resulted in the enduring enmity between these two creatures—a
tale etched in history explaining why dogs and goats are now at odds.
