The Safeway bobcat prank

You really don't want to see this on the dock 
when you're making deliveries.

Is pulling pranks with dead animals more of a rural, 1940s thing?

A delivery driver for Safeway found an unexpected squatter in the store’s receiving area... a 35-pound bobcat. Once the driver realized the animal was actually “deader than the stewing hens in the meat department storage locker,” he also learned the critter was placed there as a prank by another employee. The bobcat was shot by 60-year-old local rancher Miss Nettie Connett, who was known for stalking bobcats in her hen house, aided by her terrier dog and “trusty .22-caliber rifle.”
