#9 chickens are good at football, which evidently was actually invented in england along long time ago. by chickens, which would explain why they were good at it.

#10 if someone makes fun of you, then those close to you will jump on the band wagon, for example the sheriff is caught singing the song about the king, so even if you are a king your friends will still stab you in the back, figuratively and sometimes literally.

#11 Never ever under any circumstances trust a bear and a fox who are dressed like gypsies of all things, because if you do, well my friend you are asking for trouble.

#12 if you hire rhinos as guards they are probably going to do more damage than good.

#13 if you are having an event of any sorts and are expecting any kind of shenanigans to ensue, refrain from using a a big top type circus tent, because it will fall on people sooner or later, especially if you have rhinos running around after football playing hens.

#15 Snakes who have the power of hypnotism and can force a King to go on a crusade are only doing so because they like being submissive to their dominate Lion boyfriends.

Oh my god, #15 is hilarious!!!!

#18 12th Century English church mice are not. so. quiet. in fact, they'll speak their mind to government officials if they feel a social injustice is being done. "Quiet as church mice" must be a post 12th century phrase.

#20. We now know how Robin Hood really took it. The "Oo-de-lally" song pretty muched proved that with "they were drinking, they just guzzled it down".

Hopefully you got this joke.

Very true

23. A stork with a thick (London?) accent is probably a fox trying to get your attention

24: Snakes can actually become helicopters if they put a balloon on their heads

25) Jewels on rings are surprisingly easy to suck out.

#35 its a-ok for a grown female vixen to engage in mock flirty roleplay and kiss a 7 year old rabbit

#36 Despite being a king of England you willingly believe that a) a bear who's voice and face, and the fact that he is the only bear residing in Sherwood, you should recognise from the last time he robbed you in BROAD DAYLIGHT is posing as an ally and if that didn't tip you off b) he claims to be a Duke of Chutney (yeah where is that on your map again John?)

#37 Despite claiming that you can't just walk up to a girl you haven't seen in a years hand her a bouquet and say "hey he were kids together will you marry me? You propose to her first time you see her again. Thus proving Robin Hood either has short term memory loss or is one heck of a smooth operater.

But I digress Robin and Marian are awesome even in Disney logic where 1 day together means married with kids on the way by the end of the week.

39.) King Richard the Lionheart appears to have an outlaw for an in-law.

40.) 7 year old rabbits make really good nanny's (running away with Robin Hood and Maid Marian at the wedding to "keep his eye on things").

41.) King John is "[He's] maaaaaaaaddddddddddddd"

42.) Animals have their own version of Robin Hood and "Well folks, that's the way it really happened."

"Toto, I've [got] a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."

I found this far more entertaining than I should've. I'm getting crazy looks for laughing so hard at my computer.
