A pourquoi story, also known as an origin story or an etiological tale, is a fictional narrative that explains why something is the way it is, for example why a snake has no legs, or why a tiger has stripes. Many legends and folk tales are pourquoi stories.

For instance, a pourquoi story might be titled, "How the Monkey's Tale was Made Long" [Because the monkey was naughty and tried to get away from Old Mother Nature, but she grabbed him by his short tail and it stretched out.] or "How the Tiger got its Stripes " [The tiger got into a fight with the Great Saber-Tooth, himself. The scratches on the tiger's coat were so deep that they appeared on every tiger born after that day, and in beautiful orange, as the tiger was so brave.] (Examples made up)
