I had to look this one up, it’s a reference to a mountain climber, George Mallory. From Wikipedia:
Once, when asked by a reporter why he wanted to climb Everest, Mallory purportedly replied, “Because it’s there.”

Is this one referencing something that I’m missing? Or is the joke at face value, that they’re going off to war, which isn’t a suitable place for a pet?
