Actually you've uncovered the vast conspiracy! First we had the insurance companies and their midnite runs with truckloads of cougars and coyotes......
Now there are whispers of midnite truckloads of worms imported by Audubon. The worms were brought in, of course, to feed all the birdies that will roam the forests now that those evil deer are gone.
Next we'll see internet photos of USP prez Mohr with flashlight and bait bucket in hand conducting his own investigation.......
Look on the bright side, maybe the high worm population will drive down the high cost of fish bait
