Dear Outfitters, Booking Agents, and Hunters,

It's my sad duty to inform you that I looked through the latest issue of National Geographic today and they had a lion population distribution map. On the map it clearly showed that there are no longer lions in the Luangwa Valley, the entire Eastern side of the Zambezi Valley, the Save Valley, or practically the entire country of Uganda. This is indeed sad news as we all know National Geographic is never GROSSLY inaccurate. So cancel your booked hunts and pull your hunters out of the field for all the lions are gone! For what it's worth if we act now we could still save the remaining 5 lions left in Africa! Roll Eyes

Sincerely,

Brett

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.
-Seth Peterson

But will they have enough can openers in those areas to "release" the canned lions?
