Crop Circles Created By Wallabies 'Stoned' On Opium

Quote :: Some people believe space aliens are responsible for those bizarre patterns found in farmland known as crop circles. Others are now saying the culprits are actually spaced-out critters.

Australia grows 50 percent of the world's legal opium, and you might be a bit shocked to learn what it does to the local wildlife.

Wallabies have been eating the crops and essentially getting "high as a kite," according to an Australian official who talked to the BBC. The marsupials are eating the poppies that grow on the plants, which are used to make painkillers like morphine.

But what they do next is even more bizarre.

Lucky damn wallabies

That's funny.

I grow poppies...the somniferum variety that you can get opium from.

You need a HOT climate to get good morphine content though, from what I understand. I hope they don't take the poppies away from all those animals they will have withdrawl and die!!!!!
