Synopsis
In this whimsical tale, a rude rhinoceros with smooth, tight skin steals a Parsee man's freshly baked cake. Seeking revenge, the Parsee fills the rhino's discarded skin with cake crumbs while it bathes. Upon donning the skin again, the rhino is tormented by the itching crumbs, causing it to rub and scratch until its skin becomes wrinkled and loose. This humorous story explains how the rhinoceros got its distinctive skin folds and serves as a lesson on the consequences of bad manners.
