Not sure about Panchatantra[edit]
The article currently states "Some variants are very old, going back at least to the Panchatantra or Fables of Bidpai..." I've slapped a {{citation needed}} on this because:
- Quickly paging through both the Edgerton and Purnabhadra versions of Panchatantra, I failed to find an analogue (of course, this could be my own failure).
- The story (here about a wolf) does appear in Jacobs' edition of North's translation of Doni, but Jacobs notes: "This form original to the Italian of Doni," which suggests that the story was added in the 1500's, therefore not a part of any early version of the Panchatantra and seemingly neither a part of the Fables of Bidpai/Pilpay (though I'm less sure about those versions).
