From Harper’s Weekly Review:
In Los Angeles, California, three people were convicted of insurance fraud after one of them dressed up in a bear costume, broke into their vehicles, and blamed a bear for the damage; a woman sued the town of Surfside Beach, South Carolina, for sending her a cease-and-desist letter warning that she would be arrested if she continued recording interactions between residents and local geese; and it was reported that the band Geese is an industry plant. “Reputational damage is the toughest thing to shake,” a marketing expert said of the revelation…[A] beaver that walked into a grocery store in Canada had to be escorted from the premises by the police.
