Funny Taste

A lion in the Dublin zoo was lying in the sun licking its
arse when a visitor turned to the keeper and said,
"that's a docile old thing isn't it?"
"No way," said the keeper, "its the most ferocious beast in
the zoo.
Why just an hour ago it dragged this guy from Chapelizod into
the cage and completely devoured him."
"Hardly seems possible" said the astonished visitor,
"but why is it lying there licking its arse?"
It's trying to get the taste out of its mouth.
