Jasper The Leopard

Once, a little while ago, there was a leopard named Jasper. He was a happy leopard and enjoyed laying in the sun for extended periods of time and eating leopard food.
One day he was sitting on a bench in Central Park enjoying all the different people who were walking and playing there. Now it is not customary for leopards to be seated upon benched in Central Park, so when people noticed that Jasper was there they became quite agitated and began to run away screaming.
Jasper was confused and emotionally injured by this act of un-welcoming hostility, but he decided to not let his overwhelming grief overcome his uplifted mood and so he remained seated on the bench, enjoying the sun.
It was not long before Jasper’s keen ears picked up the sound of the sneaking boots of men. The SWAT team was on the scene. Jasper leaped off the bench and ran at breakneck speed through Central Park and back to his home in Uganda (he runs fast...). He felt safe there and so was greatly shocked, although for a short time, when he was walking along one day and fell into a lion trap and was impaled on a giant spear and killed...
