A Culture Vulture Was Killed Today

Apparently it was an accident.

The creature was mistaken for another species and shot by a hunter.

Strange that the camouflaged hunter was in New York City.

Presumably his camouflage clothing resembled the storefronts of overpriced shops or bogus cultural institutions.

Game officials say "no worries," however, as the creatures are "hardly in danger of extinction."

"Frankly, it doesn't put the least bit of a crimp in my day," said one official, who declined to give his name.

"The beast was taken mid-Tweet," said another, who was responsible for cleaning up after the tragedy. "They might as well shut down that Twitter account right now. It's the respectful thing to do. I mean, if you consider bandwidth and all."
