A local Texas taxidermist with a great sense of humor has mounted a coyote to the back of this truck:

How many people have tried to flag this guy down on the road?

The owner of this truck might want to be careful driving past the Governor’s Mansion Rick Perry’s $9K rental home in the hills of west Austin.

  1. Now, that’s funny. I wonder what would happen if he drove that truck to California.

    In other news:
    You Mess With The Bulls, You Get The Horns … Right Through The F’N Mouth!

    • I saw those images. Oddly enough, I’m almost always rooting for the bull in these events.

      Good to see one win (though, the bull was killed afterward, which hardly seems fair).

      • The bull is always doomed when he enters the ring.
        At least he got in a good blow. It will be a long time before this particular matador messes with another bull…if ever.

  2. That’s a good looking coyote. Ours are so mangy.

    As to bullfighting, it’s just torturing an animal to death. And as Robbie points out, even when the bull wins they kill him. So, it’s hardly a “fight”

    I was surprised to see that Jeremy Irons, mr. lefty himself, sees the ban on fox hunting as an assault on basic civil liberties. Fox hunting is also an unfair sport. They don’t do anything with the fox. Can’t eat him. Can’t skin him. Can’t mount them. It’s what — 30-50 people and horses and about 30 dogs chasing one fox until he’s too tired to run?

  3. Hmm. I bet if you passed that truck with your dogs in your car they would go nuts.

  4. if you look at it really quickly it looks like a small hairy kangaroo….awesome!!!

  5. I heard this woman on the radio. She’s a reporter and covers bullfights and was present. She sounded American but had a hint of an accent. Which kind I couldn’t figure out. She’s also married to a bull fighter who just retired.

    She said the guy hopped up immediately and ran. The other bullfighters came to his aid. She said when they carried him out, he was conscious, holding a towel to his mouth.

    I’d like to know, how he unhooked himself from the horn. He’s lucky the bull didn’t try to toss him.

  6. LOL…i can hear the conversation now..
    officer:excuse me sir but did you know you have a stuffed animal either hanging on for dear life or attemptin to hump your truck?

    driver: Yes officer I’m waiting til we get home to get him off and punish him severely. such a bad dog…

    [now let your mind wander where it will. *grin*]
