Dingo Problem Solved ( True Story)

The Australian Government and the NSW Forestry Service were presenting an alternative to NSW sheep farmers for controlling the dingo population.

It seems that after years of the sheep farmers using the tried and true methods of shooting and/or trapping the predators, the Labor Government (Peter Garrett - Environmental Minister), the NSW Forestry Service and the Greens tree-huggers had a 'more humane' solution.

What they proposed was for the animals to be captured alive, the males would then be castrated and let loose again. Therefore the population would be controlled.

This was ACTUALLY proposed to the NSW Sheep farmers Association and Farming Association by the Federal Government and the NSW Forestry Service.

All of the sheep farmers thought about this amazing idea for a couple of minutes. Finally, one of the old boys in the back of the conference room stood up, tipped his hat back and said, ‘Mr Garrett, son, I don't think you understand our problem. Those dingo’s ain't f---in' our sheep - they're eatin' 'em.'

You should have been there to hear the roar of laughter as Mr Peter Garrett and the members of the NSW Forestry Service , the Greens and the other "tree huggers" left the meeting very "sheepishly".

Another TRUE STORY!!!!111!!!!!OMGLOL!!!!!1!111!!!!

The Sierra Club and the U.S. Forest Service were presenting an alternative to Wyoming ranchers for controlling the coyote population. It seems that after years of the ranchers using the tried and true methods of shooting and/or trapping the predators, the tree-huggers had a ‘more humane’ solution.

What they proposed was for the animals to be captured alive, the males would then be castrated and let loose again. Therefore the population would be controlled. This was ACTUALLY proposed to the Wyoming Wool and Sheep Grower’s Association by the Sierra Club and the USFS.

All of the ranchers thought about this amazing idea for a couple of minutes. Finally, an old boy in the back of the conference room stood up, tipped his hat back and said, ‘Son, I don’t think you understand our problem. Those coyotes ain’t fucking our sheep - they’re eatin’ ‘em!’

The only references to either "true" story appear to be on internet joke sites
But apart from the (True Story) comment, I enjoyed the joke!

Of course, you can trust the internet! Why, it's right in your own home, so it wouldn't lie to you!

Now, I have an uncle who is currently stuck in Nigeria, and has a request for you. I can tell you are just the sort of wonderful person who would love to help out someone less fortunate than yourself, stuck in a horrible situation through no fault of their own. By helping out my uncle you would be doing a service to a worthy man, and proving yourself a charitable and compassionate person. And to reward your assistance, my uncle would make the transaction financially rewarding for you too. I'm sending him your email address - expect to hear form him soon. Hope you can help!!!
