# How Leopard Got Even with AnanseWhile hunting Mr. Man's pigs together, Leopard did all the work with his accurate shooting. Ananse, though missing every shot, still demanded half the meat for himself. Frustrated by this unfair arrangement, Leopard devised a clever trick. He suddenly warned that the pigs' owner was approaching, causing them both to hide. From their hiding place, Leopard created whip-cracking sounds and then imitated Mr. Man's voice, demanding to know who had shot his pigs. The frightened Ananse quickly betrayed his partner, shouting "Leopard shot the pigs!" When Leopard made another whip sound, the panicking Ananse further incriminated himself by adding, "Not me, Mister Man! I can't shoot! Leopard shot those pigs." This admission that he couldn't shoot contradicted his earlier claims that entitled him to half the meat. Leopard revealed the deception with laughter and took all the meat home, leaving the dishonest Ananse with nothing—a rare instance where the spider's trickery failed and justice prevailed.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​https://mythopia.io/story/102/african-folktale-the-hunter-becomes-the-hunted-west-african-trickster-tales
