The Deer and Kuloamang
The Deer and Kuloamang
Once upon a time, in a forest in the Aru Islands, Maluku, lived a group of deer who were known to have the ability to run very fast. Deer used to challenge other animals in an area to race. Who wins the running race, then he has the right to live in the area.
