I don't like to think about the process of killing the meet. Although deer are "cute", they are definitely harmful to your garden munching on your plants.<BR/><BR/>@jenn - That's right. The blue jays can be vicious. Our cat is afraid of them too.ReformingGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17990465686765948682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287878009139006493.post-51472904647951997342008-10-16T13:59:00.000-05:002008-10-16T13:59:00.000-05:00Who knew that the cats would be more aggressive th...Who knew that the cats would be more aggressive than the snakes? :) We have a local blue jay who's declared war on the neighbor cat.

With a shotgun you'd need slugs and I'm not sure how many places that's legal. Kansas for one.<BR/><BR/>They are good eating. I'm just sayin'... if you eat meat, somebody's gonna die, whether it's Mr. Moo cow who lives in a filthy stockyard or Mr. Deer who (up until the moment he becomes dinner) lives a pretty good life just hanging around, doing deer sorta stuff.It's mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02030081794655766175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287878009139006493.post-31392042882321322512008-10-16T06:18:00.000-05:002008-10-16T06:18:00.000-05:00it's like you live in a very surreal and sometimes...it's like you live in a very surreal and sometimes dangerous zoo! ;) watch out for those attack cats on your next run! :DChat Blanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08049275050536199230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287878009139006493.post-60502704958524953782008-10-15T20:51:00.000-05:002008-10-15T20:51:00.000-05:00@ve - Yikes, a falcon?

No deer in my yard, just the typical pesky critters like skunk and raccoon, and occasionally my 85-year-old skin head neighbor. I do have a fox though. Occasionally a moose will wander in to town when totally lost. My biggest fear (after Jaws) is hitting one of those things with my car.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02550767558199877208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3287878009139006493.post-49479178730631583322008-10-15T11:11:00.000-05:002008-10-15T11:11:00.000-05:00Two of my famous animal stories happened while run...Two of my famous animal stories happened while running. The first was when a falcon attacked me in a normal neighborhood in the Bay area in California. It kept diving and clawing me; I was frantically trying to get a neighbor to open their door. Then, several years later I ran right into a deer in the middle of the road. It was pitch black. I thought deer could see in the dark? Maybe it was messing with me...Ed & Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00730956006290504616noreply@blogger.com
