Story About Acacia And Ant

by Kamila Moravcikova

Once upon a time there had been an acacia tree called Acee. She hadn't been really original when it came to her appearance. But she had been beautiful. Acee had had small flowers arranged in clusters and had been full of thorns. She'd been living in Africa in a small acacia community. There had been also a small fellow community of ants. Actually, they had not have their own community, they had been living IN acacias. But they all had been doing well. The ants had been doing their best protecting the acacias. They'd been biting the bad animals trying to eat acacias' leaves. And acacias'd provided their buddies with home and food. Acee'd had her favorite ant & Antee (aka No.1 Biter). But then the dark clouds came. Well, it was not a dark cloud. It was a MAN. The Scientist. He was interested what would happen if there were no animals trying to reach the acacias' leaves. So he divided the community into two. The one part was fenced. The other was not so the other animals were still around. The protected acacias (including poor Acee) did not what to do. The ants become lazy as there was nobody to bite. Ants (including Antee) were just having fun, using the shelter acacias used to give them times ago. Acee felt abused. She was weak and drained. It was't a good deal anymore. She did not care about Antee and stopped producing the nectar. She was done.But The Man have never realized what he did.
