The Great Indian Lion

In a poor zoo of India, a lion was frustrated as he was offered notmore than 1 kg meat a day.

One day the lion thought its prayers were answered when a US ZooManager visited the zoo and requested the zoo management to shift thelion to a US zoo.The lion was pleased and started thinking of acentral A/C environment, a goat or two every day and a US Green Card.

On it's first day after arrival, the lion was offered a big bag,sealed very nicely, for breakfast. It opened the bag quickly but wasshocked to see that it contained only a few bananas.Controlling its anger, the lion thought that may be they cared toomuch for him as they were worried about his stomach as he had recentlyshifted from India. The next day the same thing happened. On the thirdday again the same food bag of bananas was delivered.

Now the lion was furious. It stopped the delivery boy and blastedhim,"Don't you know, I am the lion...King of the Jungle....What' swrong with your management? What nonsense is this? Why are youdelivering bananas to me ?"

The delivery boy politely said, "Sir, I know you are the King of theJungle but....do you know that you have been brought here on amonkey's visa!!!Moral : Better to be a Lion in India than a Monkey elsewhere .....
