I can see they are unhappy animals huddled under a tree, but what’s the joke? What’s special about this tree, that it was left? Why are there domestic animal in there (a cow, a sheep) that wouldn’t be in a forest anyway?
Another stump theme. This one’s not a CIDU; It might be titled “Pinocchio, the Final Cut”
Perhaps over-familiar as a mental-health joke, but enough original twist to make it funny.
And if the answer is “leash”, how ironic that the comic strip is “Free Range”.
Philip contributes this one, asking “Huh? Is this something people worry about?” –

A Halloween left-behind LOL.

In case you didn’t know, the “Nick and Zuzu” comic panels run as accompaniment to an advice column by Carolyn Hax. Sometimes they really depend on the writing and are totally CIDU without it. Other times, the comic is quite independent of the column which sparked it; and that is the case here. And the cartoons appear elsewhere, where the column is not available or even mentioned, such as GoComics.
