those aren't to bad :-)
city folks....
remember when a coyote was in NY city? it made the national news. some people didn't even know what it was.
Hard to imagine that, out here in coyote country :) Anything new seems dangerous to some people.... Around here, we're wrapping our minds around black bears being back in our parts...
I was disgusted to hear about a swarm of bees somewhere around here being called in to a beek. It was hanging from a grocery cart at a store, but by the time the beek showed up the store manager had decided to Raid them instead. Yikes!
Being someone who deals with the public, I can say that most people are ignorant, ignorance is NOT bliss, and common sense is not so common!
