Question

How did Jody look after the fawn, after he accepted the responsibility for doing this?

Short Note

Solution

After Jody accepted the responsibility for looking after the fawn, he cared for it as its own mother would. While taking it home, he shielded its face from the sharp vines. He carried it in his arms even though he was tired. On reaching home, he gave it the milk that was meant for him. When he saw that the fawn did not drink the milk kept in the gourd, he fed it with his own hands. Hence, one can say that Jody carried out his responsibility quite well.
