An elephant and an ant met near a river. The elephant was walking when the ant shouted:

Ant- Hey! Stop! Be careful!

Elephant- Who is this? - Said the elephant.

A- It’s me! Here! Down, at your feet. You were going to step me!

E- Oh, I’m sorry. What are you doing here?

A- I am looking for food and you are stepping my way. Can you put out your leg from here?

E- I’m bigger than you. Why should I do what you want?

A- Because I’m more intelligent than you.

E- That’s not true!

A- Yes!

E- No!

A- Yes!

Suddenly, a voice said:

Turtle- Shut up! I want to sleep!

E- What’s up? The stone is talking!

A- No, It’s a mountain!

T- No! I’m a turtle! Haven’t you ever seen a turtle?

E- What’s a turtle? I don’t know what a turtle is...

A- I’ll tell you: It’s an animal with a big shell and four legs. It eats wild herbs but some of them eat meat. What do you eat?

T- I usually eat ants, is it OK?

A- Nooooo!!

T- Don’t worry, I was joking.

E- Really?

T- Yes, I don’t eat ants, I eat elephants.

A- Wow! Like me!

E- I’m getting angry! Very furious! With turtles people make soup. Do you want to be in a soup?

T- Mmm. I like soups!

Suddenly a mole appeared from the soil.

Mole- What’s going on? You! Big guy, you are stepping on my place, my home is falling down!

E- It’s not me! It’s the ant!

M- And what the hole are you doing, ant?

A- Such a beautiful day!

Giraffe- Yes, very nice. Don’t you think?

T- Eing? Where do you come from?

G- I’ve seen everything and the ant is stepping the mole’s house.

A- Wow! The tree is talking!

G- Shut up snitch!

A few moments later the giraffe hit the tree and a lot of pineapples fall from the tree, hitting the elephant’s head and killing him. The elephant fall on the mole killing him too.

Then, the turtle said:

T- Mmm, we have a dinner now!

G- How do you prefer that? Rare, medium or well done?

A- Well done and, if it’s possible, with chips.

T- Yes, and an apple in the mouth.

Yes, it was a great cook dinner. They washed the elephant and the mole in the river and ate them after cooking.

They spent the afternoon talking about football and after a lot of hours the ant said:

A- Aren’t you hungry?

G- Yes!

T- But we’ve eaten a lot.

G & A- Yes.

T- We can eat something light, like... an ant?

G & A- Nooooo!

T- So... a giraffe?

G & A- Noooo!

T- Maybe a turtle?

G & A- Yeeess!

T- But I don’t want to eat turtle now!

G & A- But we want that.

They killed the turtle and later they made a delicious turtle soup.

A- Mmmm. That soup was great!

G- Yes, but I want to tell you a secret. Come here, on the top of the tree.

The ant climbed the tree, and when she was on the top, near the giraffe’s head:

G- Fffffff (blowing).

The ant fall to the floor and died...

G-(singing) MmMmm mmMMm... I’m alive.
