Here's the picture:
A man is walking through the jungle carrying a violin case. Suddenly, he finds himself surrounded by a variety of ferocious wild animals. The tigers, lions, gorillas, leopards, elephants, alligators etc. are slowly advancing on the poor guy. Desperate, he remembers that music is supposed to calm a savage beast, so he opens the violin case, takes out the violin (What else?) and begins to play beautiful classical music. It works. The animals stop and listen. Soon they are settled comfortably, smiling, and enjoying the beautiful music. That is all of them but the largest of the lions, who leaps over the backs of the other animals, kills the musician and eats him up.
All the other animals are enraged. "How could you do such a thing!" they demanded. "We never get to hear that kind of music here in the jungle!"
The lion, wipes off his mouth, cups his hand behind his ear, and says, "Eh?"
