A long time ago just before the big flood, Noah was ordered to get a pair of every animal and place them in the Arc. Then it rained and rained. In the arc the animals got restless. With nothing to do, the animals started to mate. Noah was very upset since the amount of food is limited, and if there were newborns, there would not be enough food. Noah ordered all male animals to unscrew his organ and put it in the big basket; that way, no more mating and the amount of food will be enough for the duration of the flood. After 40 days, the rain stopped, the arc hit land, and Noah disembarked. His first order of busines was to thank the Lord, and he ordered all the animals to go back into the jungle. The animals left in droves, but the male came back soon thereafter. "Noah," they said in unison, "how about our organ, we want it back". Just then did Noah remember about the big basket. Yet he did not have time to give them back one by one, besides, he already forgot which organ belongs to which. He ordered the animals to stand behind a line, and when the time comes they just have to go to the basket, find its own organ and go back to the jungle. Naturally, all the animals were anxious. When the GO signal was given, the horse galloped toward the basket. Since it is the first one to reach the basket, it chose the biggest organ, screwed it back to its body and disappear. The next fastest animal chose the next largest, and so on and on. The elephant was so slow such that it was the last one reaching the basket. There was only one left, a very tiny organ. With no choice, the elephant screwed that smallest organ to its body. That, ladies and gentlemen, explains why a horse has the largest male organ and why elephant has the smallest. Check it out next time you go to the zoo.
