Manoj, the younger
son took over the hunting for wild boar, deer or buffalo.
An old jackal who loved horse meat, could not hunt large animals. The jackal flattered Manoj, and even against his father's warnings, they hunted together as friends. Stephanie

One day, the jackal
took Manoj to hunt for horse meat. His father knew there were no horses
in the forest and was afraid. It was the King of Veranasi's horse. Manoj
now liked horse meat as well and they went hunting often for horse.

The King put more
guards on his horses. One day, as Manoj got to the stables he was shot
with a poisoned arrow. The jackal did not wait to help and ran away. Manoj
dragged himself back to the cave, but it was too late.
