Apparently lion meat is a problem

It seems like an almost daily occurrence when we find out that certain places are serving horse meat rather than beef. The Guys don’t have any problem with this, an animal is an animal, but in Illinois they’re so over that, you guys. They’re on to lion meat.

A state lawmaker has introduced a bill that would ban the sale of lion meat, because he thinks he knows of a couple places that have been serving it. This makes sense, because Chicago is known to be overrun with lions. Still, we hope that Illinois leaders will see the greater worth of freedom of meat, and defeat the bill.

Flippered pirates on the west coast

Sea lions live up to their name as the lions of the sea. They prey on unsuspecting sea zebras and sea antelope, travel in prides and have been known to stalk and attack human children. Apparently, they are also known for their intellect.

A sea lion in Washington state illegally boarded a passenger vessel, probably intending to take the family on board as hostages and for money or a prisoner exchange. Luckily, after an hour long battle, the coup attempt was repelled, and the sea lion went back into the water.

The only problem is, it then let out its mighty sea lion roar and climbed up the boat’s ladder. The shoddy journalism of USA Today fails to tell us what happened after the family was re-boarded, we are left to assume that the U.S. Coast Guard came in and terminated the threat posed by the beast.
