[ScreamingMeemie]

West in Detroit in the first place? :cry:

And why didn't the construction workers rescue him? :cry:

That almost happened to a little gosling while I was driving home yesterday, but it made its way onto the meridian just ahead of the Tahoe.

7. I saw a dead deer on the shoulder of I-94 in DT St Paul last weekend

Not too far from the state capitol, actually. It was strange to see it right in the middle of downtown.

A couple of years ago, they had a deer break into the basement of the capitol through a window, so I guess it's not unprecedented. It's still sad though.

[ScreamingMeemie]

16. It is sad. We once had a deer wander into our backyard in a rather urban

area. We're taking they're space. I think they want it back. :(

[MnFats]

28. i think i saw that as well....but Mrs. Fats (she's not) saw SIX deer in our yard..

....a little after sun-up about 10 days ago.
....They're beautiful after all ...but i think there may be a Bambi population explosion going on....

8. Hitchhiking?

That's what happens when you don't have opposable thumbs. :hide:




(yes, I am going to hell)

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. I think there is room in the basket with PassingFair...

Yes, I'm sure there is. :P

9. Somebody got a squirrel on an interstate exit near me

The poor thing had been hit but not killed by a car in front of me and was flopping around. I was able to swerve and avoid it (I think, I didn't hear anything) but as I was driving off I saw it stop moving. For a split second I thought about putting him out of his misery but figured maybe he was just dazed so didn't hit him.

[ScreamingMeemie]

18. I was tempted to pull over and get the construction guys to help

stop traffic, but it was over before I made the decision. Just awful. :(

[billyskank]

19. MrsG

it's the way of the world. I'm sorry. :hug:

:hgu:

[ScreamingMeemie]

20. Thank you billy...

:hug:

It was just such a tiny little perfect bunny...with such wide little/big eyes. :(

[billyskank]

21. Hey

Don't think about it. :hug:

:loveya:

[mikeytherat]

23. This will make you feel better.

Sometimes these things end just how you would like.

We plucked this little guy from the middle of a busy bridge during morning rush hour. And when I say the middle of the bridge, I mean the middle: dead center of the bridge and huddling between the double yellow lines (with cars going past him, inches away, at 40-50 m.p.h.). When we passed him, he looked up at me, so I blocked traffic with my car and ran out to grab the little guy (I held him aloft so all of the pissed-off commuters understood why this nut was running across the bridge during morning rush hour). He saw the vet two hours later - a scrape on the nose and nothing else. He passed all his tests, so he go to home and live with his brother Tate and his sister Hannah.

30. My dear MrsGrumpy....

Sweetie, please don't blame yourself....

These things happen so quickly....

It is the circle of life, as billy said....

I hear you, though, still.....:hug:


:cry:

[ScreamingMeemie]

34. Hi CP!

:hi:

I cannot stand to witness those types of things. Head in the sand, am I

[NC_Nurse]

31. Awww...

I'm so sorry, sweetie! Stuff like that tears me up too. :hug:

I think it falss into the "shit happens" category.

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. Yeah...

:hug:

I just wish I didn't have to witness. :(

How are you doing?

[NC_Nurse]

37. Okay.

It's been a stressful spring. I look forward to a quieter summer...I hope. :)

[tigereye]

32. aw Mrs. G

:hug:

if it helps a little, I once saw a whole bunch of folks stopped for mama duck and babies to cross on a major highway....

[ScreamingMeemie]

36. I love it when I see stuff like that.

:)

This morning a squirrel had darted out on the street (while I was taking WannaB to the stop), made it 3/4's across the street and then did the squirrel "turn around and run back" maneuver. It was funny. :hug:

[tigereye]

38. they are all over the roads here

it provides an example for me to say to my kid, no," we don't want to run over squirrels." ;)


how are you?

:hi:
