According to the plot of the cartoon “The Cockerel is a golden scallop” three loving comrades lived happily without sorrow and sorrow: the Rooster, the prudent Cat and the fast Thrush. Friends were engaged in housekeeping, cultivated fields with wheat and peas. Work went well, the days were fun, with fun songs.
The quiet life ended when the cunning Fox appeared, who wanted to hunt the Cockerel. The robber decided to catch him and take him to his hut, standing in the thick of the forest. The fox was just waiting for the right opportunity to eat the bird.
It so happened that the Cat and Drozd went to the forest thicket to harvest firewood for the winter, and the Cockerel remained on the farm. The comrades forbade the Golden Scallop to look out the windows and go out into the yard. But the crook deceived the naive Rooster with his sweet speeches, and he looked out. At that moment, the red predator grabbed him.
Three attempted captivity
Fleeing from the pursuit, Lisa had already imagined eating a brewy broth, but this was not the case. Loyal friends who were near the house rushed to the rescue. They heard cries for help and freed a naughty friend from the clutches of a cunning villain.
History soon repeated itself. Only the third time the Cockerel could not help, because the comrades were far from the hut and did not hear his lamentations.
When the friends returned home, they saw that the friend was gone, and went looking for him. In their company they took a hare, collecting mushrooms nearby. Approaching the cabin of the Fox, Kosoi began to sing songs in which he spoke badly about the crook. The crook got angry, decided to eat the Bunny, and jumped out of the house. That's when Lisa was caught by friends.
Having driven the predator out of the forest, friendly comrades returned to their home, and the Cockerel promised never to let strangers into the house.
