A man stepped over a low fence at the
zoo's wildlife preserve and walked up to two buffalo. He said, "I'm
ashamed of both of you, standing out in public looking the way you look.
You are so dirty there is no telling when you had your last bath. Your
hair is all matted together. You're overweight. You always have your
head down, which proves that you are obviously depressed. Look at your
hooves, all split, and needing a trim. And look at all that stuff under
them. How long since they have been cleaned? I'm ashamed of both of you
standing here in public looking like you look, with women and children
walking by here looking at you."
The man walked away, stepped over the fence and walked on down the path.
The two buffalo just stood there looking at each other. Finally, the
older buffalo said to the younger buffalo, "You know, it's been a long
time, . . . but I think what we just heard was a discouraging word!" |
