Imagine you're a farm worker in Kenya trained from a young age to call wildlife authorities to report rogue wildlife in otherwise urban settings. The officers arrive on the scene and cordon off the area to prevent injuries. Meanwhile the home owner arrives and is told about the lion in her hedge and that she needs to enter her home from the back which she does without much thought since even though there had been no recent lion sightings there had been livestock missing. Finally someone looked through a window where the body of the lion should have been but nothing was there so they took a closer look to discover it was a bag with a lion's head on it that the owner had stored in the hedge to keep the avocado seedlings moist until she could plant them. Now I found this humorous though everyone on the scene remained serious even after the threat was discovered to be a shopping bag,not sure what to think of that.
