A hunting holiday

The boys had gone to Canada on a hunting holiday. They decided to go to the Yukon to hunt bear, but on the way they saw a road sign saying - 'Bear left' - so they abandoned the trip.

Next they went hunting deer, and were amazingly successful. The first morning they shot a huge stag and were pushing it through the forest glade.

'What are you boys doing?' inquired the ranger.

'We're taking this deer back to the car,' said Pat.

'Well, you've making heavy weather of it,' said the ranger. 'Why don't you drag it by the horns?'

'Good idea,' said Mick. So they proceeded to drag the stag for some time until Pat said, This is much easier, Mick, but we're getting farther from the car!'
