2 wild boars and a deer while I was in Guam. In the funniest way too........Sometimes the animals would sneak under the fence and onto the airfield, well we can't loose a billion dollar aircraft over a wild animal, so sometimes we got called to "run them off" through a gate we'd open up. SO three or four of us would jump in our 1 ton turbo diesels (vroom vroom!) and round em up (I guess thats what you call it???? I'm from CT!!) Those three ran to fast, the deer dead into a tree, 1 pig sliiped and wooops....goodyear got em! and 1 big, died of heat exhaustion. <p>So don't feel bad about the frog!<p>----------<br><a href="http://communities.msn.com/guidosequipmentpics/">"Guido"</a><br>David M.

While I was mowing, a squirl came running around a corner and tried to run under the deck by the discharge chute. It came back out decapitated. Oppppps
Rabbit nests, small reptiles, baby birds, box turtles, mice, moles. These are things that I know I've hit. I sure theres a lot of other things I don't know about.

I swear to goodness I've missed about 2 rabbits a week most all summer long; the dumb things wait until you're 1 ft. away before they take off & scare the #$&! out of you! I always try to miss bunnies; I've also let about 3 moles live longer too in the past 2 wks. Snakes I will chase after tho :)<p>----------<br>Smitty ô¿ô<br>

I've run over more snakes than I can count. Barely missed a baby rabbit the other day, dang thing ran right across in front of my chopper. Haven't gotten any birds yet but at least one turtle, and a few field mice. Had to stop once and let a skunk cross a yard one evening. <p>----------<br><a href="http://www.townserver.com/dtlc/">Rich@Davis Total Lawn Care</a><br>

I knew a guy that went over a rabbit hole in the middle of the yard with his WB...you know the rest.<p>Took him a long time to recover from that one.

In Virginia the frogs are getting dumber by the day. They don't even attempt to jump out of the way anymore and you don't see them until their white bellies are floating in a lake. Also I whacked a baby bird this spring, he was scared I guess when I came by this bush so he jumped out. My natural reaction to anything that jumps out of a bush while I'm weedeating is to gun the gas and then destroy. Sucks for him.

I crewed up pet snakes, rabits, guinny pigs, chipmonks and of course dead birds, even took a chicken's legs off with a string trimmer. Just For the Hell-of-it. Made a mess, but was worth it. Also hit a donkey that was burried in the ground. Haven't hit anything lately, Ill keep an eye out though.

hit a rabbit yesterday, cut off front half of its head. it flopped around & jumped about 3 foot in the air for a good minute before it finally died. i kept thinking maybe i should just run back over it to put it out of its misery but i couldn't bring myself to do it. quite a disturbing sight first yard of the day.<br>
