Keep off the animals
We encountered this plastic beast in a gas station parking lot in Fillmore, Utah -- and despite a strong urge to straddle it, I managed to heed the warning sign.
I'm assuming it was OK to photograph the beast, because there was no sign stating otherwise.
What is it with all the signs? From diarrhea in the pool (see previous entry) to "All dogs must be on leash" it seems there's nowhere where somebody isn't telling us what to do or not do.
It's as if we can't be trusted to know how to properly behave. A couple of hours after the bear who mustn't be mounted, I pulled over to take a photo at a closed-for-the-season motel. There was another sign, in the shape of a squatting dog with the words "Don't go here" on it.
We didn't.
