It’s too ridiculous to not be true.
[Sen. Tom] Coburn [R-OK] also criticized a $3.4 million Florida Department of Transportation project for an “eco-passage” – an underground wildlife road crossing for turtles and other wildlife in Lake Jackson, Fla., along U.S. 27.
“Why did the turtle cross the road? To get to the other side of a stimulus project,” the Coburn report says.
Josh Boan, the Florida Transportation Department’s natural resources manager, said a large number of turtles and other wildlife are killed in the area. In addition to protecting wildlife, he said the project is needed for safety: turtles hit by vehicles can become flying projectiles.
When I lived in Florida I was constantly fearing death by flying turtles.
