America's 8 most wanted household pets and barnyard animals DATE: 2024-05-29 16:45:02
For far too long, fluffy pets and barnyard animals have thought they were above the law -- and now they're suffering the consequences.
Even though crime is at a historic low in the United States (despite, cough cough, inflammatory reports to the contrary), some animals have escaped the claws of justice. They thought their frighteningly adorable googly eyes and crushingly soft manes meant they could live life above the law.
That time is over.
There's a new sheriff in town, and that sheriff is your local police officer, forced to pick up a drunk pig on their way home from work.
Below is a list of some of the most wanted barnyard animals/household pets in America.
