"... what are we doing in the Zoo?"
A mother and a baby camel were lying around, and suddenly the baby camel asked, "Mother, may I ask you some questions?" The mother said, ""Sure! Why my child, is there anything bothering you?"
Baby said, "Why do camels have humps?" The mother said, "Well child, we are desert animals, we need the humps to store water and we known to survive without water."
Baby said, "Okay, then why are our legs long and our feet rounded?" The mother said, "Baby, obviously they are meant for walking in the desert. You know with these legs we can move around the desert better than anyone does!"
Baby said, "Okay, then why are our eyelashes long? Sometimes, it bothers my sight." Mother with pride said, "My child, those long thick eyelashes are your protective cover. They help to protect your eyes from the desert sand and wind."
Baby after thinking for a while said, "I see. So the hump is to store water when we are in the desert, the legs are for walking through the desert and these eyelashes protect my eyes from the desert sand and wind." The mother camel nodded proudly and smiled.
After a long pause, baby camel burst out "Then, what in God's name are we doing in the Zoo?"
