Maybe they should send them to Kalifornia so that some jobs can be created out there with a Federal Grant! :banghead:

On a related topic I don't know if any of you watch the TV series "Mounted in Alaska" but one of episodes had a former Miss Teen Alaska go on a hunting trip to Australia and she shot a wild camel and brought the hide back to have a shoulder mount done. They had never mounted a camel before and they couln't order a form for it so they had to build it from scratch. Turned out to be a pretty unique looking mount when they were done. The former Miss Teen Alaska didn't look so bad either. :thumbs2:

I heard recently that Al Gore proposed a similar action related to blue whales due to an increase in whale flatulence encountered in the ozone level...

Just burn the carcasses!

Oh, that wouldn't work either...those pesky Camels.

I want to see the coming face-off between PETA and the Greenies.

People for the Eating of Tasty Animals vs the Greenies? Might not be such an exciting face-off. :biggrinjester:

I say give baseball bats to both sides and let them fight it out. Who stands to win you ask? The rest of us.
