Isn’t anyone worried that the animals will start a cargo cult as a result of getting food from the sky?

If I had a Wallaby, I’d name it Marcus. Marcus Wallaby.

Tomorrow’s news, the last specimen of an endangered species was killed when it was impaled by a plummeting carrot.

Great, now all the animals are going to become nocturnal because their eyesight has been improved by carrots, which is just going to fuck up the food sources of a different bunch of animals.

PLEASE SEND YOUR T-SHIRT CANNONS.

A catapult or trebuchet seems more useful. Get some SCA people on it.
