Answer :

Explanation:

"The Huntsman" by Edward Lowbury is humorous because:

1. **Irony and Contradiction**: Kagwa, who prides himself on foreseeing the future through animal cries, ironically ignores a talking skull's warning and meets his predicted fate.

2. **Unexpected Outcomes**: The surprise twist where Kagwa's confidence leads to his downfall creates humor by subverting expectations.

3. **Whimsical Elements**: The talking skull and its practical advice provide a surreal and amusing contrast to Kagwa’s dramatic response.

4. **Playful Tone**: The poem's light-hearted approach to serious themes like hubris and fate makes it entertaining and funny.
