Phone calls Part 2
Transcript
No here are some more phone calls that we've received lately. One person called asking for information about purchasing their Oklahoma shark fishing license. One person called concerned about the bob cat they thought was stalking them. He said he was afraid for his life, and it is the same bob cat who had been eating from the dumpster of the local Mexican restaurant. Someone called to ask if it is legal for Oklahoma to hunt deer with an RPG. It is not. One person called to ask if we have any good recipes for cooking spiders. And another person called to report they had seen a coyote while driving. When asked what they needed help with, they asked what we plan to do about the coyote.
