The lion, king of the jungle, was very bored.

The lion, king of the jungle, was very bored. He gathered all the animals of his kingdom and said:

“Each one of you must tell a joke. The joke must be funny enough to make everybody else laugh. Otherwise, I’ll kill the one who told the joke.”

The monkey was the first animal who had to tell a joke. He told his favorite joke, and every animal cried in laughter… except the turtle, who looked at the monkey with a bored expression.

“The turtle didn’t laugh!”, roared the lion, and then proceeded to kill the monkey.

The hippo was the next one in line. He started telling his joke, but was interrupted by the turtle, who started laughing before the punchline.

“What the hell, turtle?”, asked the lion.

“Monkey’s joke is hilarious!”
