7 ways to catch a lion

1. Newton's Method:  Let, the lion catch you. For every action there is equal and opposite reaction. Implies you caught lion . 

2. Einstein Method: Run in the direction opposite to that of the lion. Due to higher relative velocity, the lion will also 
run faster and will get tired soon. Now you can trap it easily. 

3. Schrodinger Method: At any given moment, there is a positive probability that lion to be in the cage. So set the trap, sit down and wait! 

4. Inverse Transformation Method : We place a spherical cage in the forest and enter it. Perform an inverse transformation with respect to lion. Lion is in and we are out. 

5. Thermodynamic Procedure: We construct a semi-permeable membrane which allows every thing to pass it except lions. Then sweep the entire forest with it. 

6. Integration Differention Method: Integrate the forest over the entire area. The lion is some where in the result. 
So differentiate the result PARTIALLY w.r.t lion to trace out the lion. 

7. The Banta's Method: DON'T EVEN TRY. YOU'LL GET CAUGHT BY THE LION.

Politically Correct

A biker is riding by the zoo, when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage.

Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his bike, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.

Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.

A Fox News reporter has watched the whole event.

The reporter addressing the biker says, 'Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I saw a man do in my whole life.'

The biker replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars.

I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.'

The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a reporter for FOX News, you know, and tomorrow's report will have this story as the lead item. So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?'

The biker replies, 'I'm a union member truck driver and a Democrat.'

The Fox reporter leaves.

The following morning the biker tunes in to see if they indeed reported the news of his actions, and hears, as the lead story:

*UNION TRUCK DRIVER BIKER ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH
