Cannibal Pelicans On The March
It was only a matter of time. Some of the forces of the animal uprising are turning on one another in a species-on-species bloodbath of unparalleled , er, beastliness. Them being beasts and all. Or in this case birds. London's St. James Park was the scene of one such battle of the birds. A cannibal pelican went on a rampage and swallowed a pigeon. No, really. They even have pictures. High definition, too. Best quote: "It was kicking and flapping the whole way down."
Hey! Wait a minute! This could be big. Instead of Poisoning Pigeons in the Park we could use pelicans! Pigeon punishing pelicans!

What annoyed me about this story is they all stood around, and the photographer went snap happy, for twenty minutes waiting to see if the pelican could pull it off.

Now that I think about it, I can imagine people sitting around, saying, “Hey, I’ll bet you 50 bucks that pelican ends up eating that pigeon.” “You’re on!!”
