#3 Judge: young man, it says here you shot and killed a Califorina Condor. How do you plead?
Defendant: Well guilty your honor.
Judge: GUILTY!? Don't you know how endangered these condors are? There are hardly any left at all.
Defendant: No sir, But my family was hungry...I had to feed my family, we're so poor, yeah thats it were so poor...
Judge: Well, That's no excuse. But OK I'll only sentence you 30 days in jail.
Defendant: Oh thank you sir, I can do that standing on my head!
Judge: By the way, what does California Condor taste like?
Defendant: It's real good, kinda like a cross between Bald Eagle and Spotted Owl!
