How Raven and Wolverine Tricked Each
Other
Raven was a bird that had magical powers and
with these powers he used to trick other animals, especially those
who weren't as smart as he was. He even tricked Wolverine who is
usually thought to be as smart as Raven.
One day while Raven was flying along he spotted
Wolverine slowly dragging his big body into the nearby timber, and he
decided to play a trick on him. He swooped down towards Wolverine and
landed near him telling him that if he went out and got a caribou he
would give him twice as much as he caught. Raven also told him he had
to get his caribou by the second sundown.
Wolverine went out hunting all that day but
with no success. The next day he went out again. Each time Raven made
himself disappear and followed him. While he was following Wolverine,
he thought to himself that Wolverine wasn't going to catch a caribou
at all. So Raven decided to have a little fun with him.
So Raven turned himself into a caribou and
waited for Wolverine. When Wolverine spotted him he started chasing
him up a little hill. But Wolverine got so tired he headed back
towards Raven's nest. Raven then turned himself into a little bird
and watched Wolverine just to make sure he didn't catch a caribou.
When Wolverine was out of sight, Raven turned back into his original
form and hurriedly flew back towards his nest. When Wolverine got to
Raven's nest at sundown, Raven was waiting for him. He told him that
his time was up and the deal was now off.
Since Wolverine had not caught a caribou Raven
thought that he should go out and hunt for a caribou himself. He was
hungry and needed something to eat. Meanwhile a snowbunting met with
Wolverine and told him what Raven was up to. So Wolverine went out
searching for Raven and found him butchering a caribou he had caught.
He hid in the brush and waited until Raven was finished with his
work. Then he charged through the timber making a great noise and
ripping down everything in his way. When Raven saw him charging he
got so scared he took off and left all his food behind. Wolverine
then took Raven's food and ate it all before Raven could think of
another trick to play on him.
