Default Crow Joke

Saw this on another forum-Made me smile.

reseachers from the massachuts turnpike authority found over 200 dead crows near greater boston recently, and there was concern that they might have died from avian flu/
a bird pathologist examined the remains of all the crows and to everyones relief confirmed the problem was not avian flu
However during the detailed analysis it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the birds beaks and claws.
By analyzing these paint residues it was determined that 98% of the crows hadd been killed by impact with trucks, but only 2%were killed by impact with a car.
MTA then hired an ornithological behaviorist to determine if there was cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills.
He very quickly concluded the cause: when crows eat road kill, they always have a look out crow in a nearby tree to warn of impending danger
They discovered that while all the look crows could shout "cah cah" not a single one could shout "truck"

I am offended by that crow joke. Crows have feelings too you know. Shame shame shame on you for making a racist black joke.

PS, it actually was funny, but I am practicing in order to get my official LibTard Licence.

Default How to cook a crow

In case you pick up a crow killed that couldn't say "caw"

This was originally printed in a Bird Club newsletters.
Apparently, it is a true story


The inscription on the metal bands used by the US Department of the Interior to tag migratory birds has been changed. The bands used to bear the address of the Washington Biological Survey, abbreviated: "Wash. Biol. Surv." until the agency received the following letter from an Arkansas camper:

Dear Sirs: While camping last week I shot one of your birds. I think it was a crow. I followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag and I want to tell you it was horrible.
