The Camel and the Arab


One day, an Arab and his camel were crossing the desert. Night came and the temperature became colder. The Arab put up his tent and tied the camel to it, then went to sleep.
The temperature became slightly colder and the camel asked the Arab if he (the camel) could just put his nose in the tent to warm up.
The Arab agreed, but just his nose because the tent was small and there was no room for two. So the camel’s nose became warm and after a while the temperature went down even further.
The camel asked the Arab again, if he (the camel) could just put his forelegs in the tent because they were very cold.
The Arab reluctantly agreed that the camel could only put his forelegs in and no more. So the camel moved in his forelegs and they became warm.
After some time, the camel told the Arab that he had to put in his hind legs or else he won’t be able to make the journey the next morning because his legs would be frozen.
The Arab agreed. But once the camel moved his hind legs in, there was no more room in the tent for the Arab and the Arab was kicked out.
