Crop circles caused by 'high' [on opium] wallabies

[edesignuk]

Wallabies eating legally grown opium poppy fields are getting "high as a kite" and hopping around making crop circles, Australian officials say.

"We have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles," Tasmania Attorney-General Lara Giddings was quote in The Mercury newspaper as saying.

"Then they crash. We see crop circles in the poppy industry from wallabies that are high."

Metro.

This I want to see!

I think wallabies are more likely to blame for crop circles in hop fields.

Lame excuse for the government cover-up. We all know it's Martians.

Somehow, I expected the next part of the quote to be, "…and then the front fell off."

I agree. I think this would make a great zoo exhibit. I don't think PETA would go for it though.

Absolutely, I agree completely, it would be an extraordinary sight. I read the original article on BBC and thought it bizarre but hilarious.
