The Stag and his reflection

A stag bends down to drink from a stream, whilst doing so stops to admire his impressive antlers in the cool reflection. At the same time, he ashamedly notices how small his hind legs are in comparison to his large antlers. At that instant he sees a lion stalking him and takes off at full speed for the safety of the forest only to have his impressive antlers snag on the branches. Just before the Stag gets eaten, he muses on the irony of how his impressive antlers were the cause of his demise and if it were not for them his small but nimble hind legs would have carried him to safety.
