Import Pelicans to Chicago Please
You're at the park. There's hundreds of pidgeons around. (In Chicago we call them rats with wings).
Then, the mighty pelican wanders by. And... it engulfs a pidgeon. Yeah, whole pidgeon in the pelicans mouth, flapping away. Few minutes later... manages to get the pidgeon to go down head first, kicking and flapping. YUMMY!!!
We need some of these big rat eaters out here. I really, really, dislike pidgeons. I'd probably hate pelicans more and all... but a small population of semi-canibalistic pelicans might be kinda cool.

Pelicans are awesome! Watching them catch fish is quite entertaining because their necks squirm when the fish tries to escape while being swallowed. But I had no idea they would eat other birds! That's insane. But also quite entertaining I'd imagine... note to self: start breeding pelicans for their entertainment value... Once I have enough pelicans to carry off small farm animals, I shall definitely send a flock out your way! :P
I second the importation of pelicans.
Let's not go too far on this without thinking.
What happens when they run out of pigeons to eat?? Soon mothers will be worrying for their babies....and then whoops where's the pooch gone?? Mayhem.
We must learn from the past...
Let's not interfere with nature too much.
marieke - thanks. They'd do well in chicago. They could eat the three eyed fish in Lake Michigan... and dye their feathers green in the Chicago River while eating the two tailed fish there... PLUS they could eat some of those pesky pidgeons.
j - yet another wise decision.
adem - history doesn't teach an American anything. We follow our own view of everything, and ignore any pleas of reason. Besides, if the pellicans become a problem, we hire bounty hunters to kill em off and we feed them to the pigs. Simple solution.
ann - If I could get away with what I'd like to do the pidgeons... I would. But, unfortuneately, there are actually laws protecting the stupid winged rodents.
