Mommy, why are
my feet so big?
A mother and baby camel are talking one
day when the baby camel asks, "Mom, why have I got these huge three toed feet?"
The mother replies, "Well son, when we
trek across the desert your toes will
help you to stay on top of the soft sand."
"OK," said the son.
A few minutes later the son asks, "Mom,
why have I got these great long eyelashes?"
"They are there to keep the sand out of
your eyes on the trips through the desert."
"Thanks Mom," replies the son.
After a short while, the son returns and
asks, "Mom, why have I got these great big humps on my back??" The mother, now a
little impatient with the boy replies, "They
are there to help us store water for our long treks across the desert, so we can go
without drinking for long periods."
"That's great Mom, so we have huge feet
to stop us sinking, and long eyelashes
to
keep the sand from our eyes and these humps to store water, but Mom..."
"Yes, son?"
"Why the heck are we in the
Johannesburg zoo?"
