A Jungle Funny

in
A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in Africa, taking
her faithful, aged poodle named Cuddles along for the company. One day
the poodle starts chasing butterflies and before long Cuddles discovers
that she's lost. Wandering about, she notices a leopard heading rapidly
in her direction with the intention of having lunch. The old poodle
thinks, "Oh, oh! I'm in trouble now!"

Noticing some bones on the ground close by, she immediately settles
down to chew on the bones with her back to the approaching cat. Just as
the leopard is about to leap, the old poodle exclaims loudly, "Boy, that
was one delicious leopard! I wonder if there are any more around here?"

Hearing this, the young leopard halts his attack in mid-strike, a look
of terror comes over him and he slinks away into the trees. "Whew!"
says the leopard, "That was close! That old poodle nearly had me!"

Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby
tree, figures he can put this knowledge to good use and trade it for
protection from the leopard. So off he goes, but the old poodle sees him
heading after the leopard with great speed, and figures that something
must be up.

The monkey soon catches up with the leopard, spills the beans and
strikes a deal for himself with the leopard. The young leopard is furious at
being made a fool of and says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back and see
what's going to happen to that conniving canine!"

The old poodle sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back and
thinks, "What am I going to do now?", but instead of running, the dog
sits down with her back to her attackers, pretending she hasn't seen
them yet, and just when they get close enough to hear, the old poodle
says: "Where's that monkey? I sent him off an hour ago to bring me another
leopard!"
