In this October 2008, Burros lined up outside a store front in Oatman, Ariz. are fed carrots by a passer-by. The U.S. Bureau of Land Management is asking tourists to stop feeding the burros because they are overweight. The agency has launched a campaign it hopes will eventually steer the burros back into the desert to forage for grass and shrubs and get them back into shape.
That sign should be on Capitol Hill.
I lost seven carrots to a burro just yesterday (my fault, I put the bucket down and forgot—he hoovr’d them right up).
Those borros are so cute but stubborn. Democrat mascot should be a snake, slug, tick, or a roach not a donkey.
