Poaching in Canada

The last time I was in Canada, a game warden told me this story - A local is pulled over for speeding and the Constable notices that the man's car trunk is not quite shut and he thinks he smells fish. When the local opens his trunk for the peace officer there are over 20 Walleye, some 15 Lake Trout and 1 Loon. The local explains how he has been out of work and really needed to feed his family. The Constable is sympathetic, but informs the man that he must put him under arrest.

As they are driving back, the Constable says, "I understand the Walleye and Lakers, but what does a Loon taste like?"

The local replies, "Tastes just like Bald Eagle!"

Sort of funny but here is the real version of this joke:

A local private hatchery owner has been killing Herons, Osprey and even an Eagle. He was convicted yesterday.

Robin Williams talks about Comedy Hell - I think this is one of those cases. This joke was told to me ten years ago by the guy who ran the fish camp I was at. I sure hate it when reality proves we are still just animals and ruins a joke at the same time.
