A horse was tired, so he decided to have a rest. He lied down like a cat, but on the grassland he was the only one to lie down for asleep. No horse liked him, because of he was weird. He told his companions that to lie down to have a rest was an amazing thing, but no horse believed him. From ancient to modern time, the horse always stood to have a sleep. It was not only the sign of a horse, but also the tradition. But the second horse was injured among them, so he needed to lie down to release his pain. So he decided to lie down too. At the second day, news was spread on the grassland: to lie down to have a rest was an amazing thing.
A strange phenomenon was born in the next few days and continued. So all the horses lied down, and they cuddled up like a cat or a dog with a nice dream. They could understand that why their ancestors chose to stand to have a sleep. And then they were pity to their ancestors who lost a lot of comfortable days. But at that day when they were attack by the lions, three lions attacked then from different directions. Although the chief of the horse lead them to defeat the lions, but there were still have six horses lost their life. It was never happened to them before, so they thought it must be the sleeping posture to make them lost their partners. Because of this posture made them too comfortable to forget the alert, and also made them to lose the good chance to escape.
All the horses hated the first horse that lied down to sleep. They expelled him out of the group and let him face the danger alone. This horse still cuddled up like a cat. His ears closed to the ground, and felt the dangerous from far and near. When the lions attacked to him again, he could escape quickly. He tried to tell his companions that the ears could tell them the dangers. But nobody believed him again. All the horses got a lesson that no matter how comfortable is, they have to stand to have a sleep.
