THE CAMELS
A mother and baby camel
are talking one day when the baby camel asks, "Mom why have I
got these huge three toed feet?"
The mother replies, "Well
son, when we trek across the desert your toes will help you to stay
on top of the soft sand."
"OK," said
the son. A few minutes later the son asks, "Mom, why have I got
these great long eyelashes?"
"They are there
to keep the sand out of your eyes on the trips through the desert."
"Thanks Mom,"
replies the son. After a short while, the son returns and asks, "Mom,
why have I got these great big humps on my back?"
The mother, now a little
impatient with the boy replies, "They are there to help us store
water for our long treks across the desert, so we can go without drinking
for long periods."
"That's great mom,
so we have huge feet to stop us sinking, and long eyelashes to keep
the sand from our eyes and these humps to store water, but Mom..."
"Yes son?"
"Why the heck are
we in the San Diego Zoo?"
ZZZZZ
