Sorry Texans….
A Texas game warden came upon a coyote caught in a trap. He returned to his office and called the Oklahoma game warden and told him one of his coyotes was caught in a trap.
«How do you know it’s one of our coyotes?» asked the Oklahoma game warden.
«Well,» replied the Texas game warden, «He’s already chewed off three of his legs and he’s still trapped!»
