How baka is written in Japanese.

Description

The word for "idiot" or "stupid" in Japanese, baka 馬鹿, is written with the kanji for the animals "horse," uma 馬, and "deer," shika 鹿. Since Japanese is traditionally written vertically, that means a horse on top of a deer, which is the wordplay featured in the image.
