Información sobre este tipo cuentístico: Description: This tale exists chiefly in three different forms: (1) Left to guard the pigs (cows, horses), a farmhand sells them but sticks their severed tails in the muddy ground. His master pulls the tails out and thinks that the pigs are sunk in the mud (have escaped underground) [K404.1]. (2) A farmhand sells his master's sheep and hangs their severed tails (bells) in a tree. He thus makes the master believe that the sheep have been carried away by a strong wind (have escaped into the air, have gone to heaven) [K404.3]. (3) A farmhand (thief) kills one ox and puts its tail in the mouth of another, so that his master (the owner of the ox) thinks one ox has eaten the other [K404.2]. (Previously Type 1525P.)
