Blow Dart Attack

The "blow dart" above, which measures 7 cm long, was stuck in our dog this Saturday. We were very upset at the fact that someone would hurt our dog in this way. However, after some investigation it was determined that the "blow dart" was actually the spine of a cactus that our dog bumped into. Even under careful examination of the spine, it is hard to believe that this is natural and not man-made.
