Read the fable: "A young fox boasted to the owl that she could catch any prey in the forest. 'I am the fastest hunter alive,' she declared. The owl blinked slowly. 'Speed is useless if you chase what you cannot catch.' That night, the fox sprinted after a rabbit and cornered it, but the rabbit dodged into a burrow too small for the fox to follow. The owl watched from above, silent." What is the central theme of this fable?

Owls are wiser than foxes. Confidence without strategy leads to failure. Rabbits are the fastest animals in the forest. Hunting should only be done at night.

Correct Answer:

Confidence without strategy leads to failure.
