One day
the lion woke up feeling better than he had ever been before. He felt so fit
and healthy he could beat the world. So he rose proudly and went for a prowl in
the jungle. So he came across a snake and the lion stopped.
“Who is
the king of the jungle?” asked the lion.
“You, of
course,” replied the snake, and slithered away.
Next,
the lion came to a small pool where he found a crocodile.
“Who is
the king of the jungle?”
“Why,
you are,” replied the crocodile and slid into the murky depths of the water.
This
went on all morning, all the animals agreeing that the lion was the king of the
jungle. Then he came across an elephant.
“Who is
the king of the jungle?” asked the lion.
In
reply, the elephant picked up the lion with its trunk, hurled the lion in the
air and then dropped him on the ground.
“Alright,
alright,” groaned the battered lion.
“There
is no need to get angry just because you don’t know the answer.”
The lion
just would not admit his defeat.
