Stuffed bald eagle stolen from Vermont library

Rich writes “AP reports that a stuffed bald eagle which could be 100 years old was stolen from the Goodrich Memorial Library in Newport, Vermont. “The bird was one of many in the display case, behind glass to protect onlookers from the mercury used at the time the animals were stuffed as a preservative.”

    2 things spring to mind
    1) Who the hell would steal a dead bird? I am certain there are some federal regulations dealing with bald eagles so propping it up on the coffee table might arouse some suspiscion.

    2) We played with Hg when I was in the lower grades. It never did us a bit of harm…then again.
