Elephants Are So Smart


A lion woke up one morning feeling rowdy. He went out and cornered a small monkey and roared, "Who is mightiest of all jungle animals?" The trembling monkey said, "You are, mighty lion!"

Later, the lion confronted a deer and bellowed, "Who is mightiest of all jungle animals?" The terrified deer stammered, "Oh great lion, you are by far the mightiest animal in the jungle!"

On a roll, the lion swaggered up to an elephant and roared, "Who is mightiest of all jungle animals?" Fast as lightning, the elephant snatched up the lion with his trunk, slammed him against a tree half a dozen times, stomped on him until he looks like a corn tortilla, crapped on him, and ambled away.

The battered lion hollered after the elephant, "Sheesh, just because you don't know the answer, you don't have to get so upset."
