BLOOMINGTON, Ill. (AP) -- Necklaces and Christmas ornaments made from dime-sized pieces of reindeer droppings have earned a Bloomington, Ill., zoo nearly $21,000 this holiday season.

The Miller Park Zoological Society made about $5,000 selling reindeer-dropping ornaments last year. It added necklaces this year when customers asked if jewelry was available.....

There’s power in reindeer cr*p. In fact, they can run 50 MPH, and that ain’t hay.

Winter moose poops look like brown wooden beads. Which the actualyl are. Their digestive metabolism switches over to twigs and bark during the winter. I hear that some folks take these moose poops, dry ‘em out and lacquer them to make necklaces and other jewelery.

We've had a gold-foil wrapped moose poop ornament on our tree for years, souvenir of an Alaska cruise in 1998.

If sh1t pays that well, Washington’s Democrats have a chance both to balance the budget and still pay for Obamacare.
