She asked him to bring the monkey to her, so that she could eat his heart. The crocodile, torn between his friendship with the monkey and his wife’s wishes, finally agreed. The next day, the crocodile invited the monkey to come to his home on the other side of the river. The monkey, trusting his friend, agreed and climbed onto the crocodile’s back.
