How many North Koreans can you get on one of those mini-subs?

I have one visit my yard every now and then. There are PLEENTY of armadillos down at the farm near Giddings.

We have a lot of deer wandering through our yard here in Lakeway—but I’ve never seen an armadillo anywhere around.

Supposedly, there are some feral hogs on our “ranch” out near Lampassas, but I’ve never seen one. We do see evidence of them, though..

This proceeded to the observation they always seem to run from the road to their home ground,

In the city of Detroit, they seldom cross the roads these days. Instead, they climb the telephone posts then walk the line over the street to the other pole and climb down.....

And not being funny but most of the squirrels in Detroit are now black.........The brown fox squirrels either got killed crossing the streets by cars or moved to the suburbs......

The deer have been pests since we moved out to Lago. I built a fence since we have a dog and she needs to run outside. At least we can keep a few things that they can’t get to and eat.

The armadillos have a tendency to dig for grubs, and I must have had a bunch in the front yard. I haven’t seen any activity lately.

Jaguar’s are back in the US (and that’s cool I think)

Joe, that’s a great photo-—boy are they freaky looking. I lived in FL for some time and did see some live ones. The ones in GA have joined the ranks of sleeping ‘possum along our roadsides.

I don’t see them because they are nocturnal but I sure see those peculiar little coned shaped holes they leave in my yard.
