Question of the Day - Sunday, August 25th, 2024

Not yet. On my first drive ever I almost hit the neighbor’s dog, but thankfully was able to stop in time. Oh actually, I think I may have squished an inchworm the other day. I saw him moving across the road too late to go around him. And yes, I would’ve avoided him if I could.

Yes. I recently hit a deer with a four wheeler.

All kinds of them.
The oddest was a small pig on the interstate.
The dumbest was a turkey on purpose. Saw a line of them running along the ditch then they single filed across the road in front of me. It was two days before Thanksgiving so I had the brilliant idea of a turkey dinner.
I punched it and sure enough hit one sending it cartwheeling down the road. Surprisingly it rolled several car lengths then popped right up and ran off to catch up with the others and appeared uninjured.
I learned two things that day. A small car grill is no match against a turkey impact and apparently turkeys have more to live for then I imagined.

One cat, squirrels, birds in flight, toads, frogs, snakes and 1 deer. DW killed 2 deer one hit.

Thankfully, nobody was hurt as I was driving slow when it jumped out in front of me. I'm assuming the deer was fine, though I felt it on impact, as when I went back to look for it, I couldn't find it.

Deer, squirrels, chipmunks, opossum, wood chuck, a couple of birds.

Bugs by the thousands, creepy crawlies on the road ditto, I'm sure.

And lots of sad faces from @Isadora .

If they didn't jump in front of my car at night, they'd be fine, but they do it all summer

And lots of sad faces from @Isadora .

I thought of that too but wasn't gonna bring it up.
