ENDANGERED SPECIES

LOST IN THE WOODS,

A HIKER SPENDS TWO DAYS WANDERING

AROUND WITH NO FOOD. FINALLY,

HE SPOTS A BALD EAGLE,

HITS THE BIRD WITH A BIG ROCK

AND EATS IT.

A PARK RANGER STUMBLES ON THE

SCENE AND ARRESTS THE MAN FOR KILLING

AN ENDANGERED SPECIES.

IN COURT, THE HIKER EXPLAINS THAT

HE WAS ON THE EDGE OF STARVATION

AND HAD NO CHOICE.

“CONSIDERING THE CIRCUMSTANCES,

I FIND YOU NOT GUILTY,” SAYS THE JUDGE.

“BUT I HAVE TO ASK

WHAT DID THE EAGLE TASTE LIKE?”

“WELL, YOUR HONOR,” THE HIKER REPLIES,

“IT TASTED LIKE A CROSS BETWEEN A

WHOOPING CRANE AND A SPOTTED OWL.”
