The guinea fowl was the first to start her speech: she was a witness to the first forest fire that she trampled, because since then her legs have been red. And the animals were ready to admit that she was right.

WORLD But then the parrot spoke: he appeared in the world when there were no guns yet. The parrot was the first to make a blacksmith's hammer and pounded on the iron for so long that its beak became crooked. And it looked like the truth. Then the elephant spoke. He is older than a parrot and a guinea fowl: after all, the elephant was born when the heavenly god gave the animals their noses. The elephant got the most comfortable and largest nose, while the rest did not have enough material for such noses ... But the debate did not end there, for the rabbit declared that he was born when there was neither day nor night yet. However, the porcupine then said that he was born when the earth had not yet been completed; it was soft like butter, so that it was impossible to walk on it. It would seem that the porcupine turned out to be the eldest. But then Anansi himself took the floor. “We should have turned to him at once,” said the spider, then there would be nothing to argue about. After all, he was born when there was no earth at all and there was nothing to stand on. When Anansi's father died, there was nowhere to bury him: the spider had to bury his father in his own head... Here all the animals recognized the spider as the oldest. !
