Animal control officers are trying to figure out how two adult leopard sharks ended up in a trash can outside a Norwalk home.
A woman said she smelled a foul odor coming from a garbage can outside her house Monday and when she peeked inside found the two dead 4-foot sharks staring up at her, said Aaron Reyes, director of operations in the area for the L.A. County animal control authority.
"Stuffed in there, just sort of curled in and, you know, thrown on top of each other," Reyes said.

Two sharks, a cold night, dead in a dumpster. This is the harsh, cold street reality of the life of homeless sharks. Social outcasts, thrown away as worthless.
How many people passed them on the street, refusing to make eye contact? How many people ignored their please for help? How many people screamed, "GET A JOB, YOU LAZY SHARKS?" How many people judged?
Please join with me in asking your local officials to fund more shelters. These types of tragedies can be prevented, if we act.
Too much chicken lasagna!
ReplyDeleteI bet they'd probably prefer lasagna made from Sea Kittens.
ReplyDeleteThat shark has hands. Must be some kind of mutant. (I can't type what just popped into my head. LOL)
ReplyDeleteThat shark does not have hands. It merely bit the hands that fed it, and there were leftovers.
ReplyDeleteMaybe SHARE/WHEEL can take over a spot in front of Bill Gates' house and get the temporary King County Executive to let them have it permanently.
ReplyDeleteI'll have try to slip through the locks and the ship canal. I'll swim over there and see if I can piggy back off of Gates' wireless.
ReplyDeleteBecause, you know, if the homeless don't have internet access, it's a violation of their civil rights.
NO WIFI, NO PEACE!!
ReplyDeleteUh oh. I see a whole bunch of SEIU guys in a boat, heading this way! Gotta split!
ReplyDeleteYou can take 'em, Shaaaaark.
ReplyDeleteTrue. I just worry about all that anger and rage. It makes the meat too tough, and gives it a little bit of a bad aftertaste.
ReplyDeleteIt's you conservative sharks that are the problem. Teabaggers. I think you're dangerous.

ReplyDeleteIt's the testosterone and steroids. You gotta be real careful with that stuff.

ReplyDeleteShaaaaark is a teabagger!?!
Well at least he isn't a rightwing extremist shark. Now "that's" where you get yer nuts.
Well, I suppose it could be worse. I could be the teabagee.
ReplyDeleteI think if people really want to make a statement, they should dress up as sharks and go dump tea in a harbor.

ReplyDeleteYou can't be too careful who you go off teabagging with.
True. Shark Sack isn't pleasant.
ReplyDeleteIt's the testosterone and steroids. You gotta be real careful with that stuff.
ReplyDeleteIndeed. It can make you stupid. Really. Frigging. Stupid.
True. Shark Sack isn't pleasant.
ReplyDeleteI would ask how you know that, but I'll just assume it's instinct, like everything else.

ReplyDeleteThat, and common sense.
Mom warned me about teabaggers. I wouldn't listen.
ReplyDelete*mommma don't let yer babies grow up to be teabaggers*
"True. Shark Sack isn't pleasant."
ReplyDeleteIs that like blue tea?
Well, it's Oolong, so...
ReplyDeleteMom warned me about teabaggers. I wouldn't listen.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she warned you too much, too often? Maybe she never shut up about it?

ReplyDeleteI bet day after day after day it "Teabaggers this..." and "Teabaggers that..." and "@!*#$ TEABAGGERS!" and stuff.
"Don't even STAND next to those teabaggers!"
ReplyDeleteOf course. By standing next to them, or even in the same town as them, you're just giving them credibility.
ReplyDeleteHeh.
