He's sometimes a hero, a troublemaker, a glutton, a buffoon, a destroyer, or a creator. The Trickster loves to humiliate humans. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e If you play a round of golf at the North Star Golf Club in Fairbanks, Alaska you will notice a unique local rule:\u003cbr\u003e “When a raven or fox steals a golf ball, a replacement may be dropped without penalty at the scene of the crime.” \u003cbr\u003e Raven takes pleasure in tormenting golfers. In 1968 ravens repeatedly swooped down and stole golf balls during the Yellowknife Golf Course “Round the Clock” tournament. In the late 1990s, ravens took turns stealing golf balls at the final hole at a northern Minnesota golf course. The ravens watched with apparent glee as the frustrated golfers tried to find their lost balls. This past year in Ireland, Northern England, and Wales ravens have been busy stealing so many balls that they are considered a natural hazard, resulting in a free ball drop! \u003cbr\u003e One British Golf official said, “I’m going to start using Ravens as an excuse for any lost balls.” \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Watch ravens steal golf balls:\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.break.com\/usercontent\/2009\/12\/raven-steals-golfball-1523452\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: blue; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/www.break.com\/usercontent\/2009\/12\/raven-steals-golfball-1523452\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.pbs.org\/wnet\/nature\/episodes\/ravens\/video-getting-a-birdie\/1556\/\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: blue; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003ehttp:\/\/www.pbs.org\/wnet\/nature\/episodes\/ravens\/video-getting-a-birdie\/1556\/\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-font-kerning: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Raven - Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50539027300652,"sku":"","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0762\/3806\/1868\/files\/uKn62s3xOt.jpg?v=1738374560","url":"https:\/\/artisan-co-op.myshopify.com\/products\/the-thief-at-the-scene-of-the-crime-etching-5-x-7-inch","provider":"Artisans Cooperative","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
