    We have a sinilar goat story except the wolf falls asleep after eating the goats and the mother literally cuts him open and fills his stomach with stones. The wolf then wakes up thirsty and goes for a sip from the well but because he has a stomach full of rocks he falls in and drowns.

      Huh, interesting. That’s what the huntsman does to the wolf in little red riding hood, actually. Or well, in the version I’ve heard when I was a kid.

        Alright I just checked the Grimm versions. The goats do as I said and the wolf drowns in a pond.

        Red riding hood actually has 2 wolves in the Grimm version. The first one the huntsman slices open and they fill him with rocks. When he wakes up he tries to escape but collapses to the ground dead.
        The second wolf happens later and grandma and hood figure out that after trying to eat red riding hood he hid on the roof to get her when she leaves. They fill up a big container (trough I think) with water from yesterday’s sausages (no joking). The smell makes the wolf extend too far off the roof and fall into the trough, drowning in the process.
