The big bad wolf converted to Buddhism and there was finally peace in the forest. But suddenly, the air was filled with screams of terror! A bear asked the animals running past him, “What’s happening now?”
“The big bad wolf!” a goat shouted. “Is meditating!”
“So? Isn’t that a good thing? questioned the bear.
“Noooo!” the goat bleated. “It’s become aware wolf!”
Explanation: The humor hinges on the pun “aware wolf,” playing on “werewolf.” The animals fear the wolf again, not because he’s violent, but because his meditation has made him hyper-aware—possibly in an unsettling or overwhelming way.
