Who is the mightiest animal in the jungle?

A tiger woke up one morning feeling magnificent. He felt so great he went outside and cornered a small monkey and roared at him, "Who is the mightiest of all the jungle animals?" The terrified little monkey replied, "You, of course. No one is mightier than you."
A little while later it was a deer's turn. "Who is the greatest and strongest of all the jungle animals?" roared the tiger. The deer just managed to stammer a reply. "Oh great tiger, you are by far the mightiest animal in the jungle."
On a roll, the tiger swaggered up to an elephant who was quietly munching no some weeds and roared at the top of his voice, "Who is the mightiest of all the animals in the jungle?" The elephant grabbed the tiger with his trunk, picked him up, slammed him down, picked him up again and shook him until the tiger was just a blur of orange and black. Finally, it threw the tiger into a nearby tree. The tiger fell out of the tree, staggered to his feet, looked at the elephant and said, "Man, just because you don't know the answer, no need to get so pissed off!"
