It’s not a matter of “if”, it’s a matter of “how” the dead bird will be used to prove that global warming exists.

Are they sure the bird is 4000 years old? Looks like it had been tagged.

Sure, but can it migrate while carrying a coconut?

It was probably tagged by a 4000 year old member of the Norwegian chapter of the Audobon Association.

“We know wolverines use ice to store food”

That’s because the lazy rascals won’t work so they don’t have money to buy a refrigerator.

Hey! Wolverines! Get a job and quit throwing your damn birds on the skating rink!

It’s not a matter of “if”, it’s a matter of “how” the dead bird will be used to prove that global warming exists.

They measured the length of the feathers and discovered that they are about 0.013 microns shorter than those from a similar bird from current times. It proves that due to global warming, birds are now requiring longer feathers to maintain lift in the warmer atmosphere.

The only question that remains is "At what point will humans heat up the air so much that birds will no longer be able to fly, and how will this catastrophic development impact all forms of life on our fragile planet?"

The only real solution is more taxes.
