Refer to the passage from "The Wise Old Man and the Ferocious Leopard.” In the middle of the night the leopard arrived. He went first to the chief’s hut but when he saw the fire, he crept away. He went to the next hut and to the next until he had been near every hut. But at each hut the sight of the fire made him turn away. He was preparing to leave the village when his hunger drove him back.

What is the most important teaching of this passage?

Fire is a good way to scare away leopards.
Think with your head and not with your stomach.
Exploring each choice is the wisest thing to do.
It is important not to get caught when being sneaky.
