The eagle accepted the cat as his student. The cat secretly ate quail chicks
          while the eagle napped           and put the remains in his nest.


                  When  the  quails  saw  the  bones  of  their  young  ones,  they  became

          suspicious and shouted, ‘The blind eagle has eaten our kids.’ They then attacked

          and killed the innocent blind eagle.
