Muṇikajātaka untranslated
Muṇikajātaka (Ja 30). The Bodhisatta was once an ox, called Mahā Lohita, in a householder’s family, where his brother Cūḷa Lohita and he did all the work. When their master’s daughter was about to be married, a pig, named Muṇika, was brought and fattened on all kinds of luxuries. Cūḷa Lohita protested to his brother, but the latter warned him of Muṇika’s fate. And soon after Muṇika was killed and eaten.
The origin of the story is the same as that of the Cūḷa Nāradakassapajātaka. The passion-tost monk was Muṇika, and Ānanda the younger ox. Ja.i.196ff.
