以動物爲喻諷刺喻人，是伊索寓言的一大特色。下面是小編精選的幾篇伊索寓言，歡迎閱讀!
The fox and the goat
An unlucky fox fell into a well. It was quite deep, so he could not get out by himself..
A goat passed by. He asked the fox what he was doing in the well. "Oh, have you not heard?" said the fox. "There is going to be a great drought, so I jumped down to get some water. Why don’t you come down here too?"
The goat believed his words, and jumped down into the well.
But the fox immediately jumped on the goat’s back and up to the edge of the well. "Good-bye, friend," said the fox. "Remember next time don’t trust the advice of a man in difficulties."
●一隻不走運的狐狸，失足掉到了井裏。井很深，他無法跳出來。
●一隻山羊經過這裏，便問狐狸在井下做什麼。狐狸說：“哦，你沒有聽說嗎?這裏將要大旱，因此我跳進來取水，爲什麼你不下來一起喝呢?”
●山羊相信了狐狸的話，就真的跳進井裏。狐狸立即跳上山羊的背，又一跳，跳上了井沿。
●“再見，朋友，”狐狸說，“記住，不要相信一個身陷麻煩的人的建議。”
寓意: 處於困境之中的人爲了擺脫困境，往往不惜犧牲別人的`利益，所以他們的建議常常是不可信的。
The fox and the stork
Once a fox invited a stork to dinner. He put nothing on the table except some soup in a very shallow dish.
The fox could easily lap up the soup, but the stork could only wet the end of her long bill in it.
When she left the meal, she was still very hungry. "I am sorry," said the fox, "the soup is not to your taste."
"Please do not apologize," said the stork. "I hope you will come to my house, and dine with me soon."
A few days later the fox visited the stork. He found that his food was put in a long bottle, and the mouth of the bottle was very narrow.
He could not insert his big mouth into it, so he ate nothing. "I will not apologize," said the stork. "One bad turn deserves another."
●一次，狐狸請鶴來吃飯。他除了淺盤子中的一點湯以外，什麼也沒有準備。
●狐狸可以輕而易舉地喝到湯，但是鶴只夠蘸溼他長長的嘴尖。吃完飯後，鶴仍舊很飢餓。“很抱歉,”狐狸說,“這湯不合你的口味”。
●“別客氣，”鶴說，“過幾天請到我家來和我一起吃飯吧。”
●幾天後，狐狸應邀而至，他發現食物都裝在一個長長的瓶子裏，而瓶口很細，他無法將他的大嘴伸進去，什麼也吃不到。“我不想道歉，這是你應得的回報。”鶴說。
寓意: 如果我們故意去傷害別人，最終只會害了自己。
The vixen and the lioness
One morning when a vixen was taking her babies out of the lair, she saw a lioness and her cub.
"Why do you have only one child, dear dame?" asked the vixen.
"Look at my healthy and numerous children here, and imagine, if you are able, how a proud mother should feel."
The lioness said calmly, "Yes, just look at that beautiful collection. What are they? Foxes! I've only one, but remember, that one is a lion."
雌狐與母獅
●一天清早，雌狐狸帶着她的孩子走出巢穴，看見了母獅子和她的孩子。
●“爲什麼你只有一個孩子，夫人?”雌狐狸問，“看我這羣健康的孩子，如果有能力，一個驕傲的媽媽應該多養一些孩子。”
●母獅平靜地說：“是呀，看看這漂亮的一大羣，他們都是狐狸!我只有一個，可他畢竟是一頭獅子。”
寓意: 貴重的價值在於質，而不在於量。
