Soon Dutch crows will be stealing peoples smokes
josanReactionPrince
How about making humans responsible for their own clean up

I am well versed in bird law and have many objections!

I hope the Dutch offer tobacco cessation programs to addicted crows.
ItDontMatterDoesIt
That's a good Idea. Sounds similar to my Sea Turtles ???? collecting plastic six pack holder concept.

What's to stop me from putting my own cigarette butts in the machine for those tastey bird treats
Trentski
You’re a smart bird
MrNightfish
I can't see how that would possibly work so it's probably going to make a bajillion dutch dollars. Gouda bucks? Tulip Cents? Clog Nickels?
geov0202
Man those are gonna be the coolest birds ever

What happens when the cigarette buds run out? Will the crows be unemployed and die of hunger?
thegrimreaver
Knowing crows, it's only a matter of time before they take up smoking themselves, so they can get more butts quickly and easily.

But the crows will just learn to breed more cigarette butts and deposit them instead!

Cancer crows. What’s bloody next I ask you
GutsTheStruggler
Cancer crows! New band name I called it!

It might secretly be a stop smoking campaign. How long until crows steal cigarettes from people when they don't see any more discarded ones?
redtruck
How?
TheWhiteRat
I read that as "braining crows". Poor crows.

I am going to teach crows to gather coins for treats. I'm going to be rich and have an army of crows. This is what I'm doing with my life.

I have wanted to do this for a while but have been lazy, I'll help you.
IdonotknowwhatthehellIamdoinghere
I like this plan. I want in.

Someone tryed this with coins, and the birds got it, they even teached others so the knowledge spread
dadjokes4lyfe
An interesting solution to the problem of some smokers being assholes.
MattTimesTwenty
Judging by the title, Peta is already on its way to milk the fuck out of saying its animal abuse

What an unethical thing to do to crows. Training them to pick up toxic substances.
syntheticgod8
Make the birds our slaves. I like it.
BardicLasher
This is just going to encourage crows to buy and smoke cigarettes.
Lurkenstine
I get it, butt they will decompose after 5 years. Its the plastics that are the prob. Teach them to get stuff like 6 pack rings and bags.
KellyCrazyCatLadyinTraining
why not both?
SteevyT
They either get treats, or die trying.
KevinAtWorkDoingNothing
Fun fact, birds that use cigarette butts in the construction of their nests don't tend to get mites.
AlexVanPutten
So we should keep throwing them on the ground?
5TUP1D
Wow, an actual interesting fun fact that I never would've guessed. Nice.
JoeMetallic
My grandpa said that they'd put a tobacco leaf in each chicken's nest.
Beezlebubble
Yeah but a lot of the hathlings tend to get suck IIRC
Beezlebubble
Sick*
truebobby
Or how about we directly charge cigarette companies for the cleanup of their product? A bit crazy but if they’re considered toxic, why not?
LizzyTheEdgy
I believe we do, awhile back they passed a 'butt tax" on all darts to cover the costs of cleaning up the butts, added .25$ to a pack but
LizzyTheEdgy
never made any change whatsoever to the amount of cigarette butts lying everywhere, and i haven't heard of any programs to change that.
carkuffb101
that is because the government used the tax money for something else. no oversight
LizzyTheEdgy
Absolutely. We need to increase public participation in local politics, as i believe this was at the state level for me. To many only 1/2
LizzyTheEdgy
get politically involved when its time to vote for the next president. 2/2
