This is definitely a WTF post, maybe because i’m from the North and not the MidWest, and oh, I don’t know I’ve never heard of ANYTHING like this happening before.
According to KXLY (Moscow, Idaho’s local news source):
“Moscow police are searching for the person responsible for leaving coyote carcasses on the doorsteps of University of Idaho Greek system houses over the weekend, including the house at Pi Kappa Phi.
“We were really like, I guess, unsure why that was happening, but, we got rid of it,” said Pi Kappa Phi president Ethan Ennis.
Moscow police say on January 20 a student left a coyote carcass at a sorority as part of a drunken dare. It’s still unclear if this incident is related.
“We don’t have enough information as to who actually committed it, so we don’t know if it’s a continuation of that prank or someone else doing something,” said Moscow Police Captain Tyson Berrett.
Ennis says these coyote killings were pretty gruesome. The coyote’s body was mangled, and he says the sorority across the street got it even worse.
Ennis said at Pi Beta Phi there was more blood on the doorstep, some even smeared on a window. Police said it appears the coyotes were shot, which is not illegal in Idaho.
“In the state of Idaho, all you need is a hunting license. You don’t need a tag or anything like that and you can hunt on public land,” said Berrett.
Now, students are left baffled as to who could be responsible.
“It was just really, just I guess, interesting because I thought it was just a one time thing that happened a couple weeks ago with someone. But, now that it’s happened a couple times it was definitely something, I guess, unusual,” said Ennis.
Police said placing these carcasses is a misdemeanor crime punishable by a $100 fine.
“We do have a person of interest. We’re still interviewing our first suspect to see if he has any connection to these other four,” said Berrett.
Now people who live at the fraternity want whoever is doing this to know they aren’t amused.
“It might just be, like, someone thinks it’s a funny prank, but it is, you know, quite a serious thing,” said Ennis.”
Okay, this story is absolutely INSANE to me for a few reasons, first of all, this is all only punishable by $100 misdemeanor fine?? Thats about the equivalent of a pissing in public charge. I was in greek life in college and definitely participated in some pretty fucked up pranks, but I have to say this one takes the cake for most disgusting/disturbing “prank” I’ve ever heard of.

Ultraviolet lights or black lights are often used to make some of the most interesting designs. Here’s how it all works: a black light looks dark purple, but that’s because it emits light in the ultraviolet range, rendering it invisible to the human eye. What actually determines if something will glow or not is whether or not they are phosphors.

Phosphors are anything that absorbs energy and re-emits it in the form of visible light. This often occurs in white or light-colored materials, especially fabrics. That’s why bright shirts will glow when exposed to a UV light. Phosphors are also commonly found in teeth and fingernails, which are natural sources of the stuff. Laundry detergents contained phosphors that help to brighten your clothes.

Our eyes can only see color in a spectrum ranging from red to orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. Ultraviolet light is the next step up from violet light and is found in very strong light sources like the sun. That’s kind of the reason we have to wear sunscreen. Still, though, we’re unable to see ultraviolet light, we just know how to detect it.

Most black lights are made from simple flourescent lamps, which generate light by sending electric currents through a tube filled with gas and mercury. The atoms in the mercury create light photons, and it basically boils down to this: the outside of the tube is coated with phosphors. The phosphors help us to see the light by turning it into a visible form.

Many people like to make use of these phosphors in tattoos to get this sort of glow in the dark look going on. There are some really cool designs people get; tattoos are already a personal statement, and giving them an iridescent quality is a surefire way to make yours stand out from the rest. Some people get ultraviolet tattoos of the bones in their hands, giving the tattoos an x-ray aesthetic.

But can these tattoos always be a good idea? We’ll explore the world of black light tattoos more coming up.
Birds are truly amazing animals. For a long time, us humans have watched birds as they’ve ruled the skies, wishing that we, too, could someday possess the powers of flight for ourselves. How exhilarating would it be to glide through the air without having to worry about coming back down? To be able to float around in the sky for hours and forget all the worries of the surface world?
Wikipedia
It would be fantastic, and birds are interesting for plenty more reasons than their flight capabilities. There are more than 9,000 recorded different species of birds in the world, and as we explore more uncharted regions that number only continues to rise. Birds can be found anywhere, inhabiting the snowy tundras of Antarctica as well as Africa’s barren deserts.
Wherever you go in the world, you’ll find different species of birds that vary in highly unique ways from each other. Some birds, like parrots, have the ability to talk, while owls and hawks make for excellent predators with their enhanced senses and arsenal of natural weapons. Birds are just plain cool looking, too, especially when they perform particularly exciting acrobatic feats.

Some birds, like cardinals, are beautiful and have coloration in their feathers that’s rarely found elsewhere in nature. Some birds are more suited to the water than the sky, swans swimming about gracefully while baby ducklings wobble about in a hilarious manner. Other birds call neither the skies nor the water home, such as the extinct dodo bird or the flamingo.

And have you ever seen a kiwi? Those things are crazy! They have this long, thin beak, sort of like a mosquito’s tail, but their bodies are round and odd-looking. And they’re called kiwis. How much more do you want out of your animal? Birds are also important to keeping natural cycles in balance by feeding on insects or other, larger critters to keep the ground-dwelling population free of pests.
