a logic puzzle

[tardograd2]

You need to take a junglefowl, flower and chicken across a river. If you leave the fowls together, the chicken will murder the junglefowl. If you leave the junglefowl and flower together, the flower will be eaten. If you leave the other pair, the flower will poison the chicken. You can only take one thing across at a time. A magpie offers to help, with their own boat, but you don't trust them to look after your stuff. How do you get across?

Simple as that, can't see why you guys find it so hard.

Throw them all across the river and swim yourself. You don't need to worry about the chicken and the junglefowl attacking each other or eating the flower as they'll both be unconscious if you throw them hard enough.

Have the magpie carry one thing across with you whenever you cross the river, but you carry only one when going across on an odd number. Total crosses: 3.

Have the magpie carry one thing across with you whenever you cross the river, but you carry only one when going across on an odd number. Total crosses: 3.

That would leave 2 cargo pieces together.

That would leave the cargo with the magpie.

That would cause the cargo to sink to the river bed.

That would leave 2 cargo pieces together.

Did I mention that the magpie using his boat carries a different item from the other boat. No 2 pieces of cargo are even left alone.

I think I did this puzzle in Professor Layton. And I sucked at it.

 

[Toka Hebizuka]

Why do I need to bring these items across a river?
