He couldn’t calmly watch the little gray goat having fun and loving his master. So he strove for wolves somewhere with a horned one to stay and eat him, straight raw, with hooves and a tail, without a knife and fork. Here it was such an ill-mannered and selfish beast.
Only the owner was not born. He unraveled the nature of the wolf a long time ago, but he didn’t show it very much.
So they got to the river and stopped. All together they do not fit in the boat. The old man can only take one passenger with him or transport cabbage. How to be here?
And the wolf in his soul rejoices, thinks: “A man will take cabbage to the other side - here I’ll get even a goat! And if I’ll be taken away first, the goat — the brainless cattle — will reap the cabbage, it’ll get good cuffs from the owner! All is joy to me. ”

The man faced a difficult task. You can’t leave a goat with a cabbage or a wolf and a goat alone. Here is such a riddle about a goat, here both logic is needed, and creativity of thinking.

Only the man took the goat, turned back. The wolf swallowed his saliva again ... Already now, the old man is sure to take him to the goat! Indeed, the man took the ball this time. Just brought to the other side, the wolf jump-hop from the boat, and sat modestly as if he had nothing wrong with his thoughts.
But the old man cannot be fooled by the chaff! He’s a goat’s goat at the wolf from under his nose - and again into the boat. The oars were picked up and swam back. The wolf almost got his eyes out of their sockets: the old man was completely crazy, since the goat was lucky for cabbage!
The man transported the animal, landed ashore. And he took the cabbage with him. Kozlik ceased to bleat in surprise. I tried to understand everything, why did the owner take him back and forth. But where is he? Although he is with horns, he is a cousin to a ram, and therefore they are somewhat similar in mind.
