'Stoned wallabies make crop circles

Australian wallabies are eating opium poppies and creating crop circles as they hop around "as high as a kite", a government official has said.

Lara Giddings, the attorney general for the island state of Tasmania, said the kangaroo-like marsupials were getting into poppy fields grown for medicine.

She was reporting to a parliamentary hearing on security for poppy crops.

Australia supplies about 50% of the world's legally-grown opium used to make morphine and other painkillers.

"The one interesting bit that I found recently in one of my briefs on the poppy industry was that we have a problem with wallabies entering poppy fields, getting as high as a kite and going around in circles," Lara Giddings told the hearing.

"Then they crash," she added. "We see crop circles in the poppy industry from wallabies that are high."

Rick Rockliff, a spokesman for poppy producer Tasmanian Alkaloids, said the wallaby incursions were not very common, but other animals had also been spotted in the poppy fields acting unusually.

"There have been many stories about sheep that have eaten some of the poppies after harvesting and they all walk around in circles," he added.

Retired Tasmanian poppy farmer Lyndley Chopping also said he had seen strange behaviour from wallabies in his fields.

"They would just come and eat some poppies and they would go away," he told ABC News.

"They'd come back again and they would do their circle work in the paddock."

Some people believe the mysterious circles that appear in fields in a number of countries are created by aliens. Others put them down to a human hoax.

Australia is such a funny country.

I've read about animals getting stoned (usually on fermented fruits and the like), and that some actually prefer the experience. I wonder if that isn't some emergent property of the mammalian nervous system.

Certainly seems that way. It's amazing the number of species that will actively seek altered states of consciousness.

Elephants absolutely love getting drunk. As do monkeys. Infact, when a human is killed by a rampaging elephant, there is a very good chance it was drunk

I was watching one of those 'World's Funniest Animals' programmes on tv yesterday and there was a video about these monkeys that hang out at holiday resorts waiting for the tourists to turn their backs before stealing their drinks. Appearantly they liked the booze so much they wouldn't steal anything else!

Yes!

It would be great if we could find a monkey who had a taste for White Russians, then we could call him the Dude!
