But no, it's a real story - here is the LINK.
.
Oddly enough, this reminds me of my the first funny story I ever wrote. I was in an High School English class and had to write a short story (I think the teacher ran out of ideas one day in class). So, out of the blue, I wrote a story about the declining moose population in Canada. It was due to deforestation.
.
You see, I wrote, the female moose is traumatized by excessively rambunctious sex. In the past, the female moose leaned against a tree while the male moose took a running leap onto her. But with deforestation, there are no trees to lean on. Yet nothing stops a male moose from running a jumping on every female moose he sees.
.
Of course, having a giant male moose jump on you, unexpected and unsupported... well the female moose(es) are getting injured during sex.
.
Nature's solution was difficult and relies on a second female moose kind of "back-stopping" the first moose. With expected negative results. Before the sex occurs, the back-stopping moose is jealous. Why not her, why always the backstop and never the bride? After the moose jumping, the backstop vows never to let that happen to her! She has a rabid (and altogether understandable) fear of intimacy after watching her best friend get moose jumped. (Note: a similar principal explains why mid-wives are often childless.)
.
The logical and humane solution was to find the remaining trees and fashion large rubber hammocks between them, so that female moose might be able to straddle. In this way the trauma would be reduced, moose populations rebound and the female moose(es) might finally enjoy the whole thing.
