A biological survey team based in Washington State University were studying the migratory habits of crows, so they caught a number of the birds in several states, tagged them with a metal tag marked WASH. BIOL. SURV. along with a box number and serial number, and released them.
After a while they received the following letter in slightly shaky handwriting:
*Dear sirs, Yesterday I shot one of yer crows an give it to mah wife to cook. Followin yer instructions, she washed it, bioled it an surved it. It was the worst thing we ever et.
