The Oxen and The Butchers

Once all the oxen gathered and decided to attack the butchers, for they were the ones who slaughtered the oxen. The oxen sharpened their horns to attack the butchers. At that time, a wise old ox said, "It's not a good idea to hurt the butchers. True that the butchers slaughter us, but they do it skillfully. Even if we kill all the butchers, men will not stop killing us for beef. In that case untrained killers will kill us, which will be much more painful."

-Based on Aesop's fable
