The squirrel is speaking. Mummy is crying, crying: “I went for the family of small stomachs, I, the squirrel, went. I went. To carry seven cones mother once sewed me a sack. Five fingers wide, five little cones.” The woman lifted the cones and went on further. “Where did the father of my children go?” She goes to the eldest son. “Son, has father not returned yet? Father is not here at all.” Three women started to cry. Naughty children. At this time they started to speak. The children said: “The forest is big.

Their grandmother says: “Don’t go. If you go, the wolf will find you. The wolf will eat you then.” Then the elder brother says: “Why will the wolf eat us? When we go into our house in the hollow of the larch tree, the wolf will never get at us.” All at once the mother started to cry, the mother cried: “Sons, why will you go so far? When I die, father has gone, and if your mother dies you won’t find the place of her bed.” Fine. That’s how it was.

Suddenly the elder daughter said: “Why do we live on the Lokhas river? If we were to go to the Supteng river? That’s where our kinfolk live.” Then the mother said: “I don’t want to go outside. I’m here and staying.” She talked to the elder brother. The elder daughter of the squirrel said: “How shall we live in one place? I think that our nuts will soon be gone and what will we eat then?” The small children take a stand and say:” “If sister goes, we won’t stay, we’ll move to the Supteng river.” They wanted to go. All of them wanted to go.

Old man wolf was going there. The wolf put his tongue out. “These young animals,” he said and thought, “if only I had wings like they do. Squirrels move a lot and go far on the ground, they jump and leap through the whole forest.” The wolf said: “Why don’t I jump just as easily?” Then the crow came and said: “How will you jump? Because the squirrels have a downy tail, they can fly. But poor you have no fluffy tail and you can’t fly.” The crow brought the wolf to tears. The wolf wept: “Really,” he said, “in the course of my life I have earned little for myself. The squirrels eat the berries found in the forest, they eat the cones found in the forest. And poor me, I will stop like this.” That’s how he lived.

Once, while going for a long or a short time, the wolf again went about with a bad thought. With a really bad thought, he went along suffering. The squirrel came along, too. The squirrel said: “I have seven children.” Then the squirrel sat down on the top of the tree and continued to sing. It sang and then said: “When I bore the children, I bore three sons and I bore four daughters.” The squirrel spoke and sang: “Little wolf, wolf, your squirrel, if you can go, walk. My tail is fluffy, I will fly.” Then the poor wolf sat down to weep: “Not long ago, when a reindeer herd passed through,” he said: “I need to keep one calf for myself, why do I live like this, poor me?” The squirrel climbed up the tree again: “My buckets of berries prepared for the winter, my cups of nuts prepared for the winter are all full.” Her children, the squirrel children, also made a din.

The wolf sat at the bottom. Saliva flowed from the wolf’s mouth, he wanted to eat so badly. He sat below, the poor thing, and wept. And the squirrel, it jumped back and forth at the top of the tree. It brought the poor wolf to tears. When the evening star appeared, the wolf started to think: “Squirrel, this squirrel is alone, how can it live alone? While it leaves on the earth, it can’t.” There was a striped animal. A striped animal, related to the cat, a tiger. He met the cat relative. He said: “The squirrel never stops railing at me and our squirrel seems to be rich.” Then the other one said: “Where will it get to? We’ll look for it together now. I will catch it on top. You wait below, I’ll throw it to you.”

Well, fine. They went and went and went, together with the tiger. They moved and moved across the ground. The ground was already coming to an end and there was no squirrel. “Yesterday,” said the tiger to the wolf, “you deceived me. Yesterday you said there were a lot of squirrels here. She has a lot of children and we want to eat. What are we, poor things, going to eat? What shall we do not, we have to eat. We’ll have to fight. We’ll have to fight. You have deceived me.” The animals threw themselves at one another. For a long time, for a short time they threw themselves at one another. But the squirrel’s home was there on top. The children were there, too. Then they said to their mother: “The wolf and the tiger are fighting.” Then the mother said: “Father said yesterday that the wolf and the tiger live on the ground to eat people. They eat us. Don’t go outside, sit at home.” And the mother left.

Suddenly a good old man could be heard coming on broad skis. The skis could be heard knocking together. The poor squirrel wept: “Yesterday,” she said, “the Khanty man brought me and those living in the forest to tears.” The old man stopped and stroked his beard: “What happened to you?” “What happened to me? They tried to eat my children.” Then he spoke and knocked one ski on the other. He went on. Then she said: “Children, don’t be frightened. When we return home in the fall, all of our children will live well.”

This old man lived there maybe, maybe he lived somewhere. While the squirrel was crying, it thought: “In the times of the Khanty people the demons killing us or someone else will find us.” At the time she saw him, the old Russian man was an Khanty, a person with a fur coat. Then she saw that the old man came in a Russian cap and said: “Children, lie down and sleep. You mustn’t go around at all during the night. Keep quiet.” With the best efforts of these people it turned out well for all, they lived well the whole time.

And now the father came from the forest. He had wandered far, across two rivers, he came from the Supteng river, from the Kasam swamp, from Kazymys. The father came to look for the elder son. The poor mother was there. The tiger wanted to eat her and the wolf wanted to eat her. The father came home. Halfway there, when he crossed the river, another squirrel was sitting. The other squirrel was sitting and was crying, crying like this: “My home,” he said, “was carried away by the crow or was carried away by the owl. Now I have no home.” Then the husband of the squirrel coming from there, coming from the Kasam River said: “How can you not have one? You have to live, I had a wife and she had to bear a lot of children earlier. Maybe the wolf ate them, too, maybe the owl ate them.” This owl that disturbs people is still alive now and it is a bad bird. “Probably it ate them.”

Then it jumped, jumped. The old man saw that the squirrel coming from another place was running. It thought: “If the animal which ate my children comes here I would lie down on the fir tree and let him eat me. Until I reach the home nest i will not stop. That’s what I must do.” And the old squirrel crossed the Supteng river and came to the birth and maternal place, looked to both sides. Two old owls were sitting. He is looking for the children, but all were hidden, were sitting. “Mother,” they said, “went out yesterday for cones and since then we have heard nothing of her.” The mother was apparently killed by the man who killed animals. Father had come, when father was coming from Kazymys, the mother of his children had apparently been killed here by the man on two legs. While the father was growing, the old man arrived from between the two rivers to look for his children.
