Un tigre que cuando cachorro habia sido capturado por humanos fue liberado luego de varios años de vida domestica. La vida entre los hombres no habia menguado sus fuerzas ni sus instintos; en cuanto lo liberaron, corrio a la selva. Ya en la espesura, sus hermanos teniéndolo otra vez entre ellos, le preguntaron:
-¿Que has aprendido?
El tigre medito sin prisa. Quería transmitirles algún concepto sabio, trascendente. Recordó un comentario humano: "Los tigres no son inmortales. Creen que son inmortales porque ignoran la muerte, ignoran que morirán."
Ah, pensó el tigre para sus adentros, ese es un pensamiento que los sorprenderá: no somos inmortales, la vida no es eterna. -Aprendí esto- dijo por fin-. No somos inmortales solo ignoramos que alguna vez vamos a....
Los otros tigres no lo dejaron terminar de hablar, se abalanzaron sobre el, le mordieron el cuello y lo vieron desangrarse hasta morir. Es el problema de los enfermos de muerte -dijo uno de los felinos-. Se tornan resentidos y quieren contagiar a todos.''

Respuesta:
A tiger that had been captured by humans as a cub was released after several years of domestic life. Life among men had not diminished his strength or his instincts; As soon as he was released, he ran into the jungle. Already in the thicket, his brothers having him again among them, they asked him:
-What have you learned?
The tiger meditated leisurely. I wanted to convey to them some wise, transcendent concept. He remembered a human comment: "Tigers are not immortal. They think they are immortal because they are ignorant of death, unaware that they will die."
Ah, the tiger thought to himself, that is a thought that will surprise you: we are not immortal, life is not eternal. "I learned this," he said at last. We are not immortal we just ignore that we will ever...
The other tigers didn't let him finish speaking, they pounced on him, bit his neck and watched him bleed to death. It is the problem of the terminally ill -said one of the felines-. They become resentful and want to infect everyone.''
