Description:Translation (Rita Seng Mai) The story I'm going to tell is about why a vulture makes sound "kut, kut, kut". Long time ago, there were two men who went on a journey together. While they were going on a journey, they kept walking and walking but they couldn't find a place to take a rest. There weren't any villages on the way. On their journey, they found bamboos and trees, and made a place to rest. Then they just slept there last nights. At night, the tiger came to the place where they rested and groped for something with its tail. Then they two were so scared. But the tiger disappeared the next morning. Since the tiger groped for something with its tail in that place where they took a rest, they made something like a trap to tie the tiger's tail too. They set it away from the tree trunk where they rested. Then the next morning when they woke up, they saw that there was a tiger got caught in the trap. Then they continued their journey. But then, they couldn't find a place to take a rest on their way again. May be they felt afraid to take a rest at someone's house. And there was only graveyard. There wasn't any village. Since there wasn't any house, they just slept at the graveyard. One man slept in a vacant old house. Another one slept on the grave. Unfortunately, the man slept in a vacant old house was eaten by a tiger. There was only his head left. Then that head came to the other man who was sleeping on a grave. When he saw that head, he was so scared and frightened that he ran away and climbed up the tree. He stayed atop a tall tree. The head of the man who slept in an old house told, "I will follow too, I will follow too". But his head couldn't climb up the tree. So the head just kept tapping "kut, kut, kut" on the tree trunk. It couldn't climb up till now and kept tapping on the tree trunk. That is why the vulture make sounds "kut, kut, kut".
