Riddle Name: Crossing the River
Complexity Level: 2 of 5
The riddle goes like this. You’re in a tropical jungle exploring the great mysteries nature has to offer. You’re followed by a friendly Tiger, a Rabbit and a bag of Carrots for you to eat along the way.
The Challenge
You’ve got to a point where you must cross a river. You have found a small boat that can carry you and only one of the objects. The Tiger, the Rabbit or the Carrots. The challenge is that if you choose to take the Tiger for example (leaving the Rabbit alone with the Carrots), The Rabbit will eat the Carrots. So the Carrots can’t stay with the Rabbit and the Rabbit can’t stay with the Tiger. Note that Tiger can stay with the Carrots though.
