Coyote Cooler!

This story made my morning. Young coyote walks into Quiznos in downtown Chicago and settles down in the Sobe cooler!

The CNN site has the funniest video and commentary

Wow, that's pretty wild; litterally! It's a fun story and I'm glad nobody got hurt. The coyote looks cute in the footage, when he's sitting in the cooler.

I also loved this little quip the reporter put into the story: "The police officer didn't have far to go; he was at the Dunkin' Donuts next door."

A coyote walks into a Quiznos and says, "Give me a Prime Rib Cheesesteak, before we have a problem."

The sandwich maker puts one together and hands it over, and the coyote promptly gulps it down and tells the guy, "Give me another Prime Rib Cheesesteak, before we have a problem."

Again the sandwich maker complies and just as fast the coyote makes it vanish and demands, "Give me a Prime Rib Cheesesteak, before we have a problem."

The sandwich maker makes as third and as he tosses it over the counter he asks "Hey, how are you going to pay for this?"

"Ah," says the coyote, "Now the problem begins."

Aww, poor little guy. He was probably just lost and looking for a snack. I'm glad they're going to check him out though, since they said his leg was hurt.

I saw that! It made me laugh muchly. Though I hope the coyote ends up okay. I know if mountain lions come into populated areas, they kill them because it's dangerous when they stop fearing people, or something like that.

They're going to treat his leg, probably give him shots and then release him in a wildlife preserve in the north. Fortunately for him, Coyotes are relatively harmless to people.

I think Quiznos should sponser an exhibit at the Brookfield Zoo for him! He's obviously not terrified of people and would probably adapt happily to zoo life (plus the Brookfield zoo is pretty neat).
