The Wind Explorer, a kite powered hybrid electric car, traveled 3100 miles across Australia using only $15 worth of electricity! In 1949, Duane F. Bruley of Maryland killed a pheasant and a fox with one miracle shot while bird hunting in northern Wisconsin! Double the bull! A two-headed bull shark discovered by fishermen off the Florida Keys in 2011 is the only one known to science!

Sounds like bullshark to me.

I would hate to be attacked by that shark.

Of course the fox had the pheasant in its mouth at the time. And who collected the payment for that electricity?

3100 miles in only 18 days, how useful.

Why not build a car that has a windmill instead of a sail. So the faster you go, the more electricity get’s generated, which in turn helps you go faster…

ok, he killed them, but why is the dead fox appearing to be cuddling contentedly on his lap and the dead bird perched happily next to him?oh, he must have had them stuffed and mounted for this kodak moment

He waited for them to line up in single file.

I’ll bet that neither the fox nor the pheasant thought it was much of a miracle. How does one eat a fox?

He was probably aiming for a coyote.

As I recall, re one account, he fired (and hit) the bird, bullet then bounced off a rock, and hit the fox that he didn’t realize was there. (Fox stalking the bird?)When did this happen? Although foxes are protected now, years ago in our area there was a $2 bounty on foxes (and a 50c bounty on groundhogs) as they liked chickens, but hardly anyone has chickens on farms any more, except for the mega poultry farms.Note: Ground hogs are vegeterians (no threat to chickens) but horses could step in a hole made by a groundhog and break a leg)

Was Duane aiming at his sister / wife / mother / aunt at the time?

gmartin997 – Chuck Norris could have killed the fox and pheasant with just a look if he wanted.

The only two-headed shark known to science, perhaps, but not to Hollywood!

Let me guess: The fox had pounced on the pheasant.

You got that right! I think hunting is barbaric.
