Pls me think of an african proverb with a animal in it ( pls give the meaning too ) pls try to be original

Where the water controls everything the land must be obedient.

Here's one I came up with.

Proverb: "When the feeding giraffe runs, you should too."*

Meaning: Listen to people who have the better view, because they see things you cannot see yourself. (The giraffe has a long neck and has a view that most animals don’t have. When it sees a predator and starts running, even though you can’t see it you should run too.)
*Note: I am sure this is original because I did not find any that were similar, but you may want to check yourself to make sure.
