Urban Safari

As we stealthily crept through the urban jungle, we spotted our target: a herd of trash cans. We approached them carefully to take a picture of this rare sight. Despite our cautiousness, the herd became aware of us. Threatened by our presence, the alpha male charged. We barely escaped from his fearsome jaws of death. You can see him in the foreground, his lid open wide to devour us whole.

We have been studying the unusual feeding patterns of trash cans. Unlike most species, they gather together in this curbside formation once a week. Looking carefully at our photo, we noted that the road was filled with streams of water due to melting snow. We feel certain we have discovered this herd’s watering hole. As for their food source, some experts suppose trash cans move into individual homes where they graze until the next time the herd gathers for water. However, this is only one theory. Further study is needed to determine the exact location of their feeding grounds.
