I don’t know where this came from. It came to me in email. If someone knows, I’ll be happy to give credit. But it is very funny, and sadly true.
******************************
Governors of two states jogging with their dogs along a trail. Coyote
jumps out and starts to attack dog:California:
#1. Governor starts to intervene and then realizes he should stop; the
coyote is doing what is natural.#2. Call animal control. Animal control captures coyote and spends $200
testing it for diseases and $500 relocating it.#3. Call Vet. Veterinarian collects dead dog and spends $200 testing it
for diseases.#4. Governor goes to hospital and spends $3500 getting checked for diseases
from the coyote and getting bite wound bandaged.#5. Running trail gets shut down for 6 months while wildlife services
conduct a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is clear of dangerous
animals.#6. Governor spends $50,000 and starts a coyote awareness program for
people who live in the area.#7. State legislature spends $2 million investigating how to better handle
rabies and how to possibly eradicate it.#8. Governor’s security agent fired for not stopping the attack and letting
the Governor try to intervene.#9. Cost $75,000 to train new security agent.
#10. PETA protests the relocation of the coyote.
Texas:
#1. Governor spends $1.23 on a .380 ACP Gold Dot Hollow Point and he and
the dog keep jogging.And we wonder why California is BROKE.
