Meth Raccoons, Peacock Pandemonium, and Crocodile Selfies—The Intelligence Test We’re All Failing
Manage episode 483724466 series 3650372
This week on Idiot of the Week, we once again ask the age-old question: Are humans actually intelligent animals? Or is that deeply unfair to animals?
First up, we have the woman who may have shared a meth pipe with her pet raccoon. Because when looking for responsible choices in life, “passing narcotics to a wild animal” is…not it.
Then, there’s a California city facing an existential crisis: too many peacocks. How many is too many? Well, when your streets look like a scene from Jurassic Park: Feathered Edition, it’s safe to say you’ve lost control.
Meanwhile, in Florida (of course), someone thought releasing a kangaroo into St. Cloud was a great idea. Because nothing screams “local wildlife” like an Australian marsupial hopping through town.
And finally, we have the tourist who decided taking a selfie with a crocodile was worth the risk. Spoiler alert: it was not.
Who will take home the coveted title of Idiot of the Week? Tune in for mockery, judgment, and the growing concern that maybe humans really aren’t the top of the intelligence hierarchy after all.
