All these cartoons are wild (except for the domesticated ones).

In this pun on chicken stock, we see a chicken stock broker in front of his chart of the DOW, on the phone exclaiming "The corn IPO was a success! We're going to make a million boks!"
I put all my money in chicken stock, but it just got wet (and more flavorful). #asininechickenpuns

In this cephalopod punny version of Homer's epic poem the Odyssey, we see the Cycloptopus (the cyclops as an octopus) holding Nautilodysseus (Odysseus as a nautilus) in his cave and asking his identity. Nautilodysseus responds, "Nobody."

In this pun on the fantasy chess match that never happened - grandmaster Garry Kasparov vs GM Bobby Fischer - we see a match between Fisher (as a fish) and Catsparov (as a cat). The interspecies history definitely adds some tension.

In this pun on the goose that laid the golden egg, we see a Canada goose (aka Canadian goose) lay a golden egg and think "Oh, you wanted cash, eh? Sorry aboot that!"
Happy Canada Day! (Also I learned through reading many great internet debates that the species is Canada Goose, whereas a Canadian goose is just any goose that happens to deal in loonies and toonies. #themoreyouknow)
