Abstract
This fable is new and strange to me. This boar makes a nuisance of himself, but no other animals will join the mouse in standing up against him. Then the boar happens to run into a loaded cross-bow and to discharge it into his chest! An ill life, an ill end. The story lacks the causal nexus that fable loves between cause and result.
