    THE COYOTE TEST:

    image

    CALIFORNIA

    The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks the Governor's dog, then bites the Governor.

    1. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie 'Bambi' and then realizes he should stop because the coyote is only doing what is natural.

    2. He calls animal control. Animal Control captures the coyote and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.

    3. He calls a veterinarian....the vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases.

    4. The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged.

    5. The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is now safe.

    6. The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a 'coyote awareness program' for residents of the area.

    7. The State Legislature spends $ 2 million to study how to better treat rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world.

    8. The Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack. The State spends $150,000 to hire and train a new agent with additional special training re: the nature of coyotes.

    9. PETA protests the coyote's relocation and files a $5 million suit against the State.

    TEXAS:

    The Governor of Texas is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks his dog.

    1. The Governor shoots the coyote with his State-issued pistol and keeps jogging. The Governor has spent $ 0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge.

    So PETA sues over the coyote being relocated but not over the coyote being shot?

    They did sue in TX State Court but the case was immediately dismissed under CR 12(b)(6).

    They aren't very big, and unless one has rabies, it sure as hell isn't going to tangle with your dog - unless you have a meal-sized dog and then you should kill yourself anyway.

    They're pretty brash around my neighborhood, and it pisses me off that I can't just blast one here and there so they know where they stand.

    But no - apparently the neighborhood is a "no shooting" zone. I crack up a little at the "missing cat" posters by the mailbox. Your cat isn't missing - it's in that coyote turd over there. You let your cat out at night, and a coyote is going to thank you.

    That's what we figure happened to a stray neighborhood cat a couple years ago. I felt kind of bad because it was friendly (for a cat) but the coyote probably came up this drainage ditch area that leads to a wash looking for food. I guess it's nature 'n shit.
