Click here for a SLIDESHOW of all the Milo Winter images. Although this is an image for a different fable, it can work with this fable, too!
M0120 = Perry220. Source: De Furia 280. This is Perry 220. According to ancient Greek animal lore, the camel supposedly did not have a gall bladder; hence the monkey’s complaint that the camel has no bile, referring to the yellow bile which, according to the theory of the humors, would make someone “choleric” and a good fighter. Likewise, elephants were supposedly afraid of pigs (something like the modern legend that elephants are afraid of mice). For another fable about legendary animal fears, see the story of the lion and the rooster, #797.
