### [v2.c36.3208](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v2.c36.3208)

Sihakoṭṭhuka Jātaka (No. 188).—The Bodhisatta was once a lion and had a cub by a she-jackal. The cub was like his sire in appearance, but like his dam in voice. One day, after rain, when the lions were gambolling and roaring together, the cub thought to roar too, and yelped like a jackal. Thereupon all the lions at once fell silent. When the Bodhisatta was told of this by another cub he advised the jackal-cub to keep quiet.
