なんでマンドリルは食べるのが得意ですか? - shaydwyrm - 2016-05-13

In Shirokuma Cafe, episode 1, a bunch of animals come in to the cafe for an interview.  Here's the scene:
Quote:白熊:では、最初の方、どうぞ
穴熊:はい。穴熊です。
白熊:えーと、ホール係りやれますか?
穴熊:はい!ホールなら任せてください。
白熊、ペンギン:ほ~
穴熊:穴を掘るの、得意なんです。あ、あ、あ、あ…
ペンギン:いや、そのホールは違うし…
 
白熊:次の方。
ゾウガメ:は~い~ ゾ~ウ~ガ~メ~で~す。
白熊:料理とか、運べますか?
ゾウガメ:は~い~ ヨ~イ~ショー え…
ペンギン:ゆっくりだね。
白熊:うん。
ゾウガメ:百年くらい働かせて~
白熊:いえ、そんなには…
 
マンドリル:マンドリルです。 食べるのが得意です。
白熊:ちょっと、それは…
 
小蟻食:小蟻食です。い、威嚇ができます。 うん わあ~
白熊:それだけ?
ペンギン:みたいだね。

Most of the jokes I get, I think, but I don't get the マンドリル one.  Is there a pun there?  Maybe I just don't know enough about mandrills?

I guess its funny because its an interview for a cafe job so promoting yourself as good at eating doesn't look good...
てか最初のホールのやつ本当にわかってますか?ww

I did a bit of research on Madrills and found this:

Quote:Mandrills are omnivorous animals and therefore eat almost anything. The mandrill primarily feeds on fruits, berries, seeds, nuts, roots, leaves, insects and even small mammals and reptiles. Most of the mandrills diet is found at ground level or just above.

Quote:The Mandrill has a very big appetite and they will eat what they can find in many locations. They feed on fruits, figs, small bugs, insects, and tree bark when they need to. They have been known to consume eggs and even the young of other species of Monkeys. Some males have been found to hunt small antelope when they have trouble finding other sources of food.

This is probably not an ideal candidate as a waiter if they eat the customers' food lol  Tongue

Haha this must be it.  I skimmed the wikipedia article and got the bit about being omnivores, but I missed that they have huge appetites too!
