Lion Territory
Once upon a time, long, long ago there were two unique lions in the
jungles of Africa. Both, it seems, had human-like qualities that made
them claim territory, daring the other to cross over the line. Strange
as it seems, the boundary between their turf was a well traveled trail
through the jungle.
All day every day, both lions lay in the brush staring across the
trail at their compatriot, daring him to cross into their territory.
The local natives knew of this animal feud, but all this was unbeknown
to African Jack, a well-known and must publicized guide who did not
speak Lionese and was unfamiliar with the territory.
While he was leading a safari through the jungle, walking all day and
cutting vines with their machetes, all this constant hacking brush had
them worn to a frazzle. After seeing two or three of his safari drop
from exhaustion, African Jack decided to stop on the trail between
these two lions and camp for the night.
After sitting up camp, eating, and getting his safari settled African
Jack sat on a stump and began reading. While he was busily engaged in
the printed page, the two lions, simultaneously, pounced on African
Jack and ate him on the spot.
When the 6 o'clock news heard of the tragedy, they reported, "African
Jack killed this evening. The motive is unclear, but it is reported he
was reading between the lions."
