Adapted from a Ngäbe indigenous story in Panama.
Benny, the boa constrictor, was quick, cunning, and boastful. All the boas in the jungle knew Benny was a master at catching his prey. Benny grew six feet long
and thought it was because he liked to eat chilis! Yes, chilis! Whoever heard of a boa eating a chili?
Benny's Grandfather Boa challenged Benny to catch a certain rooster, and Benny couldn't wait to prove himself. Off he went to capture the rooster. Did Benny realize what he was getting into challenging a mere rooster? What happened between Benny and the rooster?
