Leopard vs. Poodle

A wealthy old lady decides to go on a photo safari in
Africa, taking her poodle(a breed of dog) along for company.

One day the poodle starts chasing butterflies and
before long, discovers that he's lost. Wandering
about, he notices a hungry-looking leopard heading
rapidly in his direction.

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

Hearing this, the 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 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 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 leopard is furious at being made a fool of and
says, "Here, monkey, hop on my back so you can watch
me chew that poodle to bits!"

Now, the 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
his back to his attackers, pretending he hasn't seen
them yet, and waits until they get just close enough
to hear.

"Where's that damn monkey?" the poodle says, "I sent
him off an hour ago to bring me another leopard!"
