The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing
(Aesop's Fables # 19)
 
      A Wolf found great difficulty in getting at the sheep owing to the vigilance 

of the shepherd and his dogs.  But one day it found the skin of a sheep that 

had been flayed and thrown aside, so it put it on over its own pelt and strolled 

down among the sheep. The Lamb that belonged to the sheep, whose skin the

Wolf was wearing, began to follow the Wolf in the Sheep's clothing; so, 

leading the Lamb a little apart, he soon made a meal off her, and for some

time he succeeded in deceiving the sheep, and enjoying hearty meals.

     Appearances are deceptive.
