Wouldn't have thought an eagle could take down a deer.
 
This ain't no party. This ain't no disco.

 
Whoa
 
Oh wow. :(

I had to destroy several spider webs today outside my house to replace them with fake ones for Halloween. This drives the spiders crazy.
 
Electric fly.swatters are cool..they make flies explode and are fun to use with friends as a drinking game.

I like squirrels little hands. I like to shoot squirels. I lost a forum contest and didnt post for about 6 weeks, so I bought some foot hold traps and caught some possum and coon. I think skunks smell good. I'd like to shoot a coyote. Once I chasedba skunk and a coyote on a golfcart....separate occasions of course
 
Once on the river walk in Laughlin a skunk was casually walking towards me. I kept on my side of the walkway and he on his. No problems really. Seemed like a respectable fella.
 
Saw this little bugger in Utah at Zion National park. Was pouring rain and the toads were out. Didn't see much else in the way of wildlife there.

Skunks aren't so bad. I had one walk by porch, just walked by, didn't even notice me there.

We get frogs/toads around here. I picked one up and was gonna move it so it didn't get squished, and it peed on me.
My mom stepped on one once, it was gross.
 
Skunks are like bees. They aren't generally looking for trouble. People create trouble by vigorously defending themselves when there is nothing going on.
 
Skunks have poor eyesight, and can't detect a threat until it's very close.

I've had many encounters with skunks - usually while they are rooting through a garbage bag on the curb.

Not once did one ever get aggressive and attempt to spray. These are lazy city skunks I'm talkin about.

Basically a city skunk is like a fat guy at a buffet - waaay more interested in scarfing down grub than exerting energy.

I love Laughlin. love love love...never seen a skunk there, but those goats or whatever the hell they are in Oatman are fun break from casino.
 
yeah, theres something tranquil about Laughlin for a seasoned gambler. Next bash in Laughlin :grin:
