the Coronavirus.

A veterinary epidemiologist

examined the remains of all the crows, and,

to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was

NOT Coronavirus (COVID-19).

The cause of death was actually from vehicular impacts.

However, during analysis it was noted that varying colors

of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws.

By analyzing these paint residues it was found that

98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks,

while only 2% were killed by cars.

KDOT then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist

to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate

percentages of truck kills versus car kills.

The Ornithological Behaviorist quickly concluded

that when crows eat road kill,

they always have a look-out crow to warn of danger.

They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah","Cah"

not a single one could shout "Truck"!!!
