Double Yolker Day 17 And Alive!

So sorry for your loss
Deer are no friggin joke! A lot of friends have lost dogs to them (2 this year alone). What blows my mind is that they go over fences to do so. I live in a rural area and a lot of folks don’t even have fences. Coyotes don’t kill as often around here as deer do when it comes to pets. I just shake my head so weird.

Not just the bucks, though where I grew up, a farmer lost an entire herd of cattle to a bull elk. It got into the pasture, and just went on a rampage goring the guy's steers in the gut. Those that didn't die immediately had to be put down.

When my Aussie mix was a pup, about ten weeks old, I was out walking her and had a doe come at us. She was on one side of the road, I crossed to the other side to go by her. She looked at me, looked at my dog... pinned her ears back and charged us both. I grabbed a two-by-four off the side of the road and came around after her with it, she put on the brakes, backed off, and slunk away. A two-hundred-pound Muley doe is nothing to mess with, if you're not armed, and I've no doubt she'd have killed my pup. That doe wasn't protecting a fawn, either - wrong time of year. I've heard of several instances in which a deer will go after a small dog purely to kill it, not out of any perceived threat.

I have deer all around all the time I live by a creek where they come to birth their young. If you’ve never seen a elk...just imagine the size of 4-5 deer stuffed into one animal then put them on steroids. The bucks double that. And they are fast too!

Yes it is the pole that holds the float thing that the water stops after it gets so high in the tank

What a subject to be talking about.

Meanies!

They're just spoiled. They got some extras mealies the day before because I was changing out my mealworm farm and were expecting more.
