A man was shipwrecked on what he thought was an uninhabited island. There was a reef and porpoises frolicking in the lagoon. On the beautiful sandy beach he noticed two lions sleeping soundly. Their bellies were bulging and they'd obviously had a full meal and were sleeping it off. Just a bit further down the beach a faded sign was posted: By Order of the Government Swimming in the Lagoon is Against the Law!
It was strange, he thought.
He was hungry, but the only thing he could see that might be edible were some seagulls. With stones he managed to knock down two of the birds.
Just then, far beyond the barrier reef he spotted a ship. "Wow!" he thought to himself. "I'm going to keep these birds in case I get much more hungry and swim out to those dolphins. They're supposed to be friendly to people and maybe I can get them to take me out to the ship and I'll be rescued."
So, tucking the birds under his arm he ran down the beach, jumped over the lions and ran into the water.
Just then, a policeman ran out of the woods and placed him under arrest.
"What for?" asked the guy.
" For carrying gulls across sated lions for illegal porpoises," said the cop.
