His boat is very small, so he can only take them one by one and cross the river several times. But he faces a dilemma: If the goat and the cabbage are alone on the shore, the goat will eat the cabbage. If the wolf and the goat are alone on one shore, the wolf will eat the goat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here\u2019s the logistics dilemma:<\/strong> <strong>How can the farmer bring the wolf, the goat, and the cabbage across the river without any harm coming to them?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>First of all, the farmer leaves the wolf with the cabbage and brings the goat to the other side of the river. He returns alone, takes the cabbage and exchanges it for the goat.
