Suatu hari si anak sapi minta izin kepada orang tuanya untuk bermain di tepi sungai. Sapi muda itu berjalan ke tepi sungai, ia melihat berbagai hewan kecil di sekitar sungai. Hatinya merasa senang saat melihat katak berloncatan kian kemari.

            Tak terasa ia sudah sangat jauh meninggalkan tempat kedua orang tuanya. Tiba – tiba ia mendengar suara rintihan minta tolong. Ternyata ada seekor buaya sedang tertindih pohon yang patah.

            Sang buaya merintih minta tolong kepada anak sapi. Buaya itu mengaku tertindih pohon setelah terjadi gempa bumi dua hari yang lalu. Sapi tidak mau menolong buaya tersebut karena sapi teringat akan pesan ibunya bahwa bangsa buaya tidak bisa dipercaya, mereka licik sekali. Suka makan daging hewan lainnya.

            Tapi buaya merayu sambil mengeluarkan air mata. Buaya janji bahwa dia tidak akan melukai sapi setelah sapi menolongnya. Sapi muda terpengaruh, Lama – lama ia merasa kasihan juga dan menolong buaya. Lalu sapi berusaha mendorong kayu itu sekuat tenaganya, dan akhirnya buaya terlepas dari tindihan kayu.

            Tapi...... astaga! begitu terlepas dari tindihan kayu, buaya itu langsung meloncat ke punggung sapi dan menerkam punuk si api. Sapi memekik kesakitan dan mengingatkan akan janji sang buaya bahwa dia tidak akan memakannya. Namun, buaya mengelak bahwa dia sudah minta tolong pada sapi untuk membebaskannya dari rasa haus dan lapar setelah tertindih kayu selama dua hari dengan memakan sapi.

            Lalu sapi meminta keadilan pada yang lain. Kebetulan saat itu ada tikar lapuk hanyut di sungai. Sapi menceritakan kerjadian yang menimpanya dan meminta pendapat tikar lapuk. Apa jawabannya? Tikar lapuk menjawab bahwa “sapi harus menerima nasibnya karna tikar juga mengalaminya. Ketika keadaannya masih bau dipakai, jika koto di besihkan setelah lapuk dan banyak yang bolong di buang ke sungai begitu saja.”

            Buaya membenarkan pekataan tika. Sapi protes dan bertanya lagi kepada keranjang hanyut. Namun, keranjang menjawab persis seperti tikar. Lagi – lagi buaya membenarkan pendapat keranjang tersebut. Tiba – tiba ada seekor bebek betina tua berenang, sapi dan buaya meminta pendapat bebek. dan bebek membenarkan perkataan buaya.

            Saat itu kebetulan Kancil lewat di depan Buaya dan Sapi. Kali ini Buaya yang meminta pendapat kancil. Ia yakin Kancil juga akan membenarkan pendiriannya. Lalu Kancil menjadi hakim dan Kancil meminta Sapi dan Buaya untuk mengulang kejadian yang di alami tadi. Buaya dan Sapi pun tidak keberatan untuk mengulanginya.

            Maka dilakukanlah pengulangan itu. Buaya kembali ke tempatnya semula Sapi mengembalikan kayu besar ke punggung buaya. Setelah buaya kembali di posisi semula, Kancil mendekati Sapi dan berbisik lirih “Ayo kita tinggalkan buaya jahat ini.”  Sapi baru sadar inilah kesempatan baginya lolos dari bahaya maut. Tanpa basa basi lagi Sapi mengikuti lari arah Kancil yang sudah meloncat lebih dulu.

            Buaya berteriak. Tapi Sapi dan Kancil tak menghiraukannya. Buaya itu meraung – raung dan siapakah yang akan menolongnya? Sapi dan Kancil sudah tidak mempercayainya lagi, hewan – hewan lain mungkin juga tidak akan percaya pada mulut manis buaya itu.

            Makanya jangan terlalu rakus dan tak tahu balas budi akibatnya bisa celaka sendiri.
