This folktale tells the story of a couple who are getting a divorce and trying to decide how to divide their herd of goats. They decide to divide their goats based upon which goats will go to the sunny side of the mountain and which will go to the shady side of the mountain when taken out to graze. When none of the goats go to the side that wife chose, she tries to catch the last kid but unfortunately only manages to pull off its tail. On the road, the tail calls her mother and announces that it can prepare all kinds of food for both of them. One day, however, the woman accidentally cooks the tail and is left with nothing. This kind of unusual folktale is told in many Tibetan areas.
