stress killed the NYC coyote reports the New York Daily News
stress was just too much for Hal, the crafty coyote
who died
Friday at the New York Central Park zoo hospital
for those of you who missed this news story,
a wild coyote somehow wandered down
from upstate NY to Manhattan and
led Park workers on a multi
day chase around the
city's park

but that's not all, here's what supporters are saying . . .
Elmer Fudd said through a spokesman, "this was a clear case of
species
profiling, had he been a wabbit, park police would never lay a hand on him"
and from Paris, Pepé Le Pew weighs in: "I know, how you say, what it is
like
to be a smelly foreigner in America, you are discriminated
against for
how you looks and how you smells,
coyotes
are treated in the same fashion"
a full scale investigation has been begun with animal rights officials watching closely
former NAACP leader
Kweisi Mfume, the current president of the ASPCA New York chapter
said in a press release, "the coyote has been the recipient of institutional specism and
we are working toward full restitution from this country which silently discriminates
against coyotes because of the color of their fur"
in an unrelated story, Georgia congresswoman Cynthia McKinney
who tried unsuccessfully to substitute her ignorant behavior
with race, hairstyle, gender and anything else she
thought might get traction in the press, has
finally given a half assed apology to
capital police with the hope
that she can avoid
jail time yo
