Goats are scared off by Tiger poop

CANBERRA (Reuters) - A tiger's roar might be scary, but Australian researchers have found that the predator's poo is just as potent.

Researchers at the University of Queensland said Friday they had successfully tested a tiger poo repellant, warding off wild goats for at least three days.

"Goats wouldn't have seen a tiger from an (inviromental) point of view for at least 15 generations but they recognize the smell of the predator," repellent creator Peter Murray said in a statement.

"If we can show this lasts weeks ... we've just tapped into probably a billion-dollar market. It's enormous," he said.

I don't know why I just had to post it....

I just love the fact that God would help wild goats avoid tigers in such a way that even though they'd NEVER SEEN A TIGER- they had no tiger experiences but... once they smell that particular crap they'd say, "You know something in me says that what ever pooped right there is probably going to want to eat me."

And who said there is no God?

Even scared Goats proclaim the reality of God.

So if I run into a pile of crap from a predatory pastor I should obey my instinct and RUN!!! Do I sound bitter??? On the road to forgiveness...
