Camel in the Zoo

The little camel asks his mother: "Mum, why do we have these big humps?"

"Because in these humps there is some water, and in the hot desert we can drink."

"And Mum, why do we have this large fur?"

"Because the desert at night is so cold, and then we don’t feel cold."

"And Mum, why do we got these big hoofs?"

"Because the desert sand is hot, and the hoofs save us from the hot sand."

"But Mum, what the fuck are we doing here in the national zoo?"

Listen here, Elizabeth, you absolute smooth brain. You really thought this was a normal question between a mother and a child? You know camels live in the desert and not in the zoo? That's what makes it funny. The little camel is pointing out the absurdity of their situation. The mother gives all these explanations for their features that relate to the desert, but they are in a zoo. It's like being dressed for the arctic while chilling on the beach. Get it now? You're welcome.
