In the news, a teddy bear has been implicated for 2500 deaths — of trout, that is. He was found in a fish hatchery, clogging the drain, which prevented adequate oxygen from flowing. The hatchery supervisor has released a written statement in response : “RELEASE OF ANY TEDDY BEARS into the fish hatchery water IS NOT PERMITTED.” Seems like it would be better to tell people to not put anything into the water. He also said, “It’s kind of a cute little teddy bear and people wouldn’t think that a cute little teddy bear would be able to kill fish.” Perhaps we have underestimated the power of teddy bears…

Since teddy bears are named after Teddy Roosevelt (who was a one tough dude), I think it’s time they began to get a “tougher” image. Up until now, they’ve been pretty wimpy. Killing trout is a good start for this one, who realized that it’s ok to be cute, cuddly, and deadly all at the same time.
