Noah was visited by God one night and told to build an ark as there was a flood coming
When the ark was built, it had to contain a pair of each of the animals of the earth to save them from death, the message was sent out to the animals to be ready for embarkation - the dinosaurs didn’t receive their invite and mrs. unicorn couldn’t decide what to wear so they didn’t go.
Anyhow, Noah finally finished construction and loaded up all of the available pairs of animals, two by two, so we’re told.
The flood comes as promised and the lands of the earth get submerged killing all things not within the ark.
For weeks, then months the flood ravaged the earth and there was no sign of anything bar swirling waters.
During all of this time the sanitary conditions were dire, the animals were crapping here, there and everywhere. There were mountains of shit all over the place.
Noah finally decided this had to stop and there needed to be a massive clean up operation. So he delegated the Lions, the kings of the jungle, to be in charge. The Gorillas, the Orang Utans, the Bonobos were to be heads in charge of various departments within the ark. Their mission was to clean up the crap.
So they set to it, there were clear up gangs organised, sweeping up the mass of stinking manure and piling it into large mounds around the ark.
All of the animals were made aware that they had to maintain scrupulous cleanliness in future or they’d be thrown off and would drown.
Unfortunately these piles of shit were getting ever higher and something needed to be done. So they amalgamated all the piles into one humungeously big one, and with all of the available power they had this steaming, stinking pile of excrescences was pushed over the side of the ark, making it a wondrous and safe place to be on.
And that was the last seen of the largest pile of shit ever seen on this planet.
Until 1492 when Christopher Columbus bumped into it.
