:D The last riddle was obviously far too easy...so here we go,

A farmer returns from the market, where he bought a she-goat, a cabbage and a wolf (what a crazy market :). On the way home he must cross a river. His boat is small and won't fit more than one of his purchases. He cannot leave the she-goat alone with the cabbage (because the she-goat would eat it), nor he can leave the she-goat alone with the wolf (because the she-goat would be eaten).
How can the farmer get everything on the other side
 
goat (will eat cabbage)
cabbage
a wolf (will eat goat)


take the goat over.

then go back

get the wolf.

swap the wolf for the goat, bring the goat back.

back on the 1st side again,

swap the goat for the cabbage

deliver cabbage to the other side (now with wolf)

now go back for the goat

then you're all done :)
 
WOW finally yes you did!!!!!...your prize is nothing, as usual -
The answer is Take the she-goat to the other side. Go back, take cabbage, unload it on the other side where you load the she-goat, go back and unload it. Take the wolf to the other side where you unload it. Go back for the she-goat. That's it.
Slightly different order but yes you got it
