One hot sunny day there were many doves flying in the forest. There was one dove who was the leader. And there was another who was hated by the rest. This dove was left alone. He never ate, because all the other doves took his food. No one gave him any food. And he was starving.

So one day the leader told the other doves to look for the poor dove. But no luck. They never found him. Because he had gone away.

A few months later when the doves were flying around one of the doves went off by himself and flew deep into the forest. When he looked down from a tall tree, he saw a little white spot lying on the ground. The dove knew what it was and he flew down as fast as he could. When he reached it he found the dove that had flown away from the flock. But he wasn't moving. He was just lying there. No other dove had ever cared about him and so he died from hunger. The one dove then carried him over to the leader and most of the other doves were shocked. They were sad and they wanted to bury him. They did this.

And so they all learned about what happens when they don't care enough for their own fellows.
