If you ever feel nostalgic, I'll have a few cane toads for you.

The cane toads were a traumatic element of life when we moved in. Our road was completely covered with dead, squished, toads curling up and rotting in the hot Hawaiian sun. Nobody could possibly imagine what we had to endure to live there in the early days.

Last night I saw a small cane toad in our parking lot. That's about all that's left of those critters. Tomorrow, I shall give thanks for no toads hopping all over the roads. If I was king, I'd ditch God, Pilgrims, and Indians from Thanksgiving and make it all about the wiping out of cane toads.

here.

Very simple solution., feed ferral cats. We must feed a half dozen
feral cats, we haven't seen a sqirrel in years.

Friends of ours had a summer cottage on Georgian Bay and used to remove
all food at the end of the season. One year they went up to open it up
in the spring and a found that a family of raccoons had moved in for the
winter and trashed the place.... even without there being any food in
it. Maybe they trashed it because they were ****ed off that there was
no food.

Hey Shelly, I don't have to worry about
those huge rats that some call raccoons
anymore, they have to worry about me now.

Btw..lots of those vermin have rabies so I use
full length rubber gloves to remove them
from the box trap. (the .22 ammo is dirt cheap)

I even shallow bury them in the woods
behind my barn.

The fox and other raccoons usually find
them pretty quick and chow down
anyway. (i could just chuck the carcass)

And BTW, I'm really good at varmint proofing
and winterizing my toys by now, obvioulsy, so
save it.

Your friend.

At my sister's cabin in northern Wisconsin, the raccoons broke onto
the sun porch. They couldn't get into the cabin, but they sure
enjoyed gnawing at the armrests of the old wooden rockers. We figure
it was the perspiration from generations of people sitting in those
chairs that attracted them.

Unless you catch them and have them neutered, you're contributing to a

Not a chance! Popeye hasn't even been able to get himself neutered
yet, despite all the problems his genitals cause for him.

They've all been trapped and brought to the Vet. One of the places we
regularly contribute to, they do good work. All our houae cats are
rescues under various circumstances.

It could well be bullshit, but I have nothing to go by except what he

Really!? I don't remember that but if true maybe I'll start
taking out my porch squirrels.

I only had squirrel (on it's own) once long ago.
She made it as squirrel with onions and gravy.
So darn delicious.

Much more flavor than rabbit, if I remember both correctly.
It's been 50 years now since I ate either.

Hi Gary,

As with many things, I think the flavour of squirrel is modified by
what they have been eating, but also how they are cooked. Done on a spit
over an open fire burning birch logs, there was a touch of smoking as well
as roasting, so that might have given the taste of bacon. Done in a stew
with rabbit and wild greens, mine still had a hint of pork but, yes,
definitely more flavoured that the rabbit. Done with pheasant and wild
garlic, the pheasant took over, but then that was a younger squirrel too,
which might have had less of its own flavour. Whichever way, they are still
good eating :-)

I am doing the spatchcocked turkey vicariously. Daughter has a 24#
bird (a neighbor grew them and selected her best bird for daughter,
much larger than she had planned)
The final decision was the halve the turkey. Daughter and family are
dining with friends. The man friend is taking half of the turkey and
smoking it, daughter is roasting the half turkey propped up on some
chunks of onion/celery/carrot etc. When almost done she is going to
lift the turkey out, remove the veggies and broth, put the dressing in
the bottom of the pan and top with turkey to finish. Golly, I hope
this turns out. My thumbprint is pretty heavy on this process

You want to play the cute baby pictures game? Those will melt
anyone's heart no matter what species of animal.

Anyway, we were talking about eating squirrels. Plenty of
cute pictures of them but you posted a pic of a baby
prairie dog. All farmers kill them as they destroy crops.

Why don't you do a picture search for:
"Australia wild dog babies"
See a litter of cute pups in a burrow, totally dependent
on MOM and waiting for her to come home with some food.
But you want someone to kill MOM and let those little
ones starve to death.

It works both ways.

There's no easy answer if we care about killing animals.
You shouldn't play DOG and pick and choose the ones
that should live or die.

He says it was a pleasure He used to do a lot of bush craft and
survival stuff including cooking and eating foraged foods.

He has written books on the subject and is well known in those circles. No,
I won't be advertising them here

What a rant, just because I posted a link to a nice picture.

By the way, the picture was taken in Austria. They don't have prairie
dogs there.

Ok...you mentioned that a few years ago and I asked you to email
me about it. I would be interested in checking out a book on that
subject. It does interest me.

But back then you said your email to me bounced (and I never saw
it). Wish you would try again with the email. I'd like to read
one.

My address here is correct for email.

Ok...you mentioned that a few years ago and I asked you to email
me about it. I would be interested in checking out a book on that
subject. It does interest me.

But back then you said your email to me bounced (and I never saw
it). Wish you would try again with the email. I'd like to read
one.

My address here is correct for email.

I'll give it a try)

I tried but got this message:

'A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

Did you add that slash at the end? That might have messed it up.
other than that, should work fine.

If you care to post your address (you have in the past), I'll
email you and see if that works.

No reason why you can't email me. Don't know the problem.

I didn't type it in. I just used the address at the top of your post!

Are you saying it should be different?

That slash added would make a difference

Ok I was looking for a slash and didn't see one. I suspect you mean the
'inverted comma' ????

Ok will try it)
