A wealthy old lady decided to go on a photo safari in Africa. She took her family and her Dachshund. One day,
the Dachshund starts chasing butterflies and before long the little guy is lost. So, wandering about, he notices a leopard
heading rapidly in his direction with him in mind for lunch.
The Dachshund thinks,"OK, I'm in deep trouble now!" Then he notices some leopard bones and immediately settles down to chew
on the bones with his back to the cat. Just as the leopard is in hearing distance the Dachshund exclaims loudly, "Boy, that
was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there are any more around?"
Hearing this, the leopard halts his attack in mid-stride, a look of terror comes him and he leaps into the trees. "Whew,"
says the leopard. "That was close. That Dachshund nearly had me for lunch!"
Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a nearby tree and decides to put the information to good use
and trade it for protection from the leopard. So off he goes. But the Dachshund sees the monkey chasing the leopard with
great speed, and figured that something is up.
The monkey soon catches up witht he leopard, spills the beans and strikes a deal and the leopard is furious at being
made a fool of and says, "Here monkey, hop on my back and you can watch what I'll do to that conniving canine."
Now the Dachshund sees the leopard coming with the monkey on his back, and wonders what he'll do now?" But instead of
running, the dog sits down with his back to his attacker again and tried to remain calm ...and just when they get close enough
to hear, the Dachshund says..."Where's that fool monkey, I sent him out a half an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"
