Google street view van kills donkey...

Link

Google is denying it...

-Okay, I feel really sick for admitting this- But it made me chuckle.

I feel bad, honestly- But I couldn't help it.

Have you ever driven through Botswana???? There are thousands of donkeys on the roads. One one trip through Botswana, I counted more than a hundred donkeys lying dead next to the road, all being killed by passing cars.

Gotta ask tho, how does one go about killing a donkey with a car?
I'm not saying it didn't happen, but did they intend to hit the animal? OR did they intentionally hit the donkey?

Also from my experience such a car doesn't drive that fast....

IDK but there is better pictures than the ones on the link.

They show the Donkey walking along, minding its own business- Next frame shows Donkey rolling on the ground, next frame show donkey laying there in the road (the picture from this link)
Not going to look for the link but its out there- This story skipped the other pictures.

I challenge anyone to drive every road in their city, let alone every road on earth, and not hit an animal....it happens.

P.S. I saw a cop run over a squirrel yesterday; should I contact the local media?

I suppose that donkey enjoys walking backwards then, because that's the only way it would have gotten hit.

What do you feel bad about? The donkey isn't dead. It wasn't hit.

If you read the article you would know the donkey was rolling in the dirt, and was never hit. They released pictures of the donkey alive and well. OP must have an axe to grind with Google to post such lies, when his article proves Google didn't do it.

farout...

(speechless)

The donkey was fine when it was next to the car. It was rolling around on the dirt in front of the car (they drive on the left hand side over there) and got up and moved when the car came.

OMG well WTF happened?

they MUST have run over it???

oh I hate them now. Poor donkey

First time it got hot and we saw one of our hens dust bathing we thought she was dying. There is nothing less healthy looking than a molting hen down in the dirt with its legs going out all weird and her head flung sideways with her eyes open.

Now we laugh at them. Animals are funny doing that. Never knew donkeys do it too.

oh thk god for that... so you think the donkey was just rolling around cooling off like chickens do?

I hope so.

Yep. Dogs and cats, birds...lots of animals stay clean and cool that way.

The donkey wasn't ran over, if he had been his plump belly that he's sporting ..well wouldn’t be plump in the picture.

grrr this thread then should be moved to the HOAX section because the donkey was not ran over by the google street van.

damn
