Saw quite a few on my way through South Texas today (especially in Refugio for some reason) All dead though. Just another Texas Speedbump! Saw a few deer in Rockport too, alive though. Texas is a weird state with roadside wildlife! We've got it all!

Hope you stopped and grabbed it for the chili pot

Of course. Got out in the storm to grab the fvecker.

Not sure I killed it actually. Sounded like I grazed it with the middle fo the car. Fvecker shouldn't have gotten in the way.

A family of feral hogs crossing the road just before dawn is a sight to see...as long as they're far enough down the road that you don't jack knife the boat trying not to hit em.

Family of feral hogs... makes ya wish ya had your gun doesn't it?

 

[steelcitybrew]

Those little buggers have made their way up into Tennessee. It's like a opossum with armor on.

armadillos can carry leprosy, so be careful with them...

Yep. I've spotted them in my front lawn.

 

[beerkrump]

Why did the chicken cross the road?



To show the opossum* it could be done.

* - armored or not

Saw my first (and only) armadillo in LA after Hurricane Katrina. It was like a friggin' living little armored tank. That's the weirdest animal I have ever seen.

 

[mcaple1]

I've only seen 1 armadillo in my life....but it was dead on a golf course on Ft Gordon, GA.
