Scab
I got nothin' here...
A leopard, on his daily patrol, came upon an old Poodle chewing on a bone. And although he had never before seen a Poodle, he thought he looked like an easy meal. Just as the leopard was about to make his leap, the old Poodle, who had seen the leopard approaching but was too old to run, throws down the bone he had been chewing and says; "Ummmm, that's the best leopard I have eaten all week."
Upon hearing this, the leopard slams on the brakes and thinks maybe this guy isn't what he appears to be. He thinks he is lucky that he was able stop his attack in time. He leaves to search for an easier meal.
Now, there happened to be a monkey in a tree that witnessed the whole thing and realizes the scam. The monkey decides that he can trade this information with the leopard for protection and proceeds to go get the leopard. Shortly after, the Poodle spots the leopard returning with the monkey on his back. Still too old to make a run for it, the Poodle turns his back to the approaching leopard and monkey. As they creep closer, the Poodle says; "Now, where's my damn Monkey? I sent him over an hour ago to bring me another leopard."
