This is True #45: Road Runner vs. Coyote

Howling Mad
From Randy Cassingham's This is True -- http://www.thisistrue.com -- online weird news since 1994.

A woman jogger asked a construction worker to call police in Sarnia, Ont., Canada, for a "barking" coyote in a park. Officers arrived to find it was a cardboard cutout, which the city itself had installed to scare off Canada geese pooping in the park.

Someone apparently has a little problem with their depth perception! (Among other things.) That's almost as bad as the person who reported a coyote during the coyote scare in NJ a couple of years ago. Turned out what they saw was a golden retriever... wearing a bandanna.

Depth perception nothing! She said the cardboard coyote *barked* at her! :-)

We can now have an American saying: "paper coyote" and leave the "paper tiger" phrase to the Chinese.
