Whooping Cranes - 02/25/11 04:46 AM
A game Warden was out on Padre Island, checking out the flock of protected Whooping cranes, when he saw a guy aiming his shotgun at the birds. The GW yelled, and the guy flinched, missing the cranes. The GW took the guy's gun away, arrested him, and threw him in his Suburban.
While they were heading for the jail, the Game Warden asked him why he was hunting the cranes. "To eat, of couse", came the reply. The GW went ballistic, and proceded to tell the guy that the cranes are protected, and not to be hunted.
After a while, the GW calms down, and his curiousity gets the best of him. He looks back at his passenger and asked, "What does Whooping Crane taste like?"
The hunter replied, "A little like Bald Eagle"
