The Crocodile in the River by Vanarinda Jatakas https://sites.google.com/view/jatakas/crocodile?authuser=0
The story is about a man who is reincarnated as a monkey where he lived on an island where he grew fruit. The monkey would leap to a rock in the middle of the river and eat fruit from the trees until he would have to go back home. Also in that river lived a male and female crocodile who saw the monkey-eating fruit on the rock. The female crocodile was hungry for the monkey's heart and asked the male if he could go bring it to her. The crocodile one day then decided to go out and hide under the rock. The monkey came out and saw that the rock was higher than usual and decided to call out to the rock. The crocodile answered and said he came to eat the monkey. The monkey said up your mouth and I will jump in your mouth knowing the crocodile has to close his eyes to eat. The Crocodile opens his mouth and the monkey jumps on it and runs across the bank.
