Default IN: Owl Discovered In Christmas Tree Found With Marijuana In System

Owl Discovered In Christmas Tree Found With Marijuana In System
WNDU.com | 12/15/2005

Sarasota, FL - Here's a holiday story you just won't believe.

A family found an owl in their Christmas tree, and the bird apparently had a little hooter in him.

A small screech owl was found in a live Christmas tree that a family bought.

They kept the tree for five days before they decided to decorate it.

When they did, they found the owl.

Animal control officers came to get the owl, and when they did, they made a shocking discovery!

"I kept smelling him and smelling him, saying 'What is that odor'. It was lying there as happy as can be,"says one animal control officer who was at the scene.

"Curiously enough, the owl's feathers smelled very, very potently like marijuana," says Animal Control Officer Dering. They examined the owl, looked at its eyes, big owl eyes, and the owl was, in the vernacular, stoned."

Blood tests confirmed the owl was flying high, on marijuana.

They checked him out, fed him and named him Cheech.

He'll be released in a few days.

Default who wrote this article? a kid?

It amazes me to see the lack of data transmitted in the broadcasted media. I am awestruck by the sheer simplicity of this article.

The whole thing is broken up to make it look bigger.

To make it look like it says more.

To make it look more meaningful than it is.

But the story is indeed inane and goes nowhere.

Yeah, its a cute christmas story but I think the facts are all messed up.

I don't understand how the owl would still be in the tree after a car trip and 5 days in the house.

The AC officers would have no idea what a stoned owl looks like. If their story is true then the bird was probably dehyrated from being in the tree for 5 days. And I'm sure the bird just smelled like a pine tree....

I also highly doubt that anyone did a drug test on the bird. And IF they did and they werent lying about the other facts...if it had been in the tree for 5 days the only way it would still be testing positive for marijuana is if the family who had the tree were smoking fat bob marley joints around it and blowing their hits into the tree OR the christmas tree was actually just a giant marijuana plant and they didn't notice ( ) . They have a fast metabolism so thats the only way it would be in its system.

But of course I think they are full of it and they didn't drug test the bird and they saw its dehydrated eyes and thought it would make for a cute christmas story.

Whatever sells....right?
