Yep it's skunk season again, my favorite time of year I see the signs, little holes in the lawn, my dogs too excited to go outside at night. Only a matter of time before he ends up in Jackson's jaws. Not cruel, I don't put them in the river like my neighbor does. A towel over the cage, a long ride to someone else's neighborhood Relocation program or you know my dog will make quick work of him... like he does a squirrel

Where I live I don't worry about skunks as much as about coyotes and owls and Hawks, oh my! We have Falcons too, and deer, and bunnies. We have 4 Jack Russell Terriers and they let us know when one of those 'things' are close. We took the dogs for a walk a while back and there was a hawk beside the street just having dinner on a poor bunny. The hawk was huge...about the size of a two year old child. It just looked at us and went back to eating. Lucky it was already eating. It could have carried one of our dogs away quite easily. Dogs and cats dissappear quite often here, especially if they get out of the fences. It is interesting to see all of the 'Lost Cat' fliers tacked to telephone poles around here...as if they don't know what has happened to their poor little kitty.

I think they have been lurking and did pretty good last season.

Well, you can add Copperhead to the mix now. We have had somewhat of an explosion of them in our area. In fact, friends on Facebook say that they have the same problem elsewhere as well now, so something has caused them to come out 9f hiding. We had one come right up onto our carport, and we ran over a few on the street, and our neighbor across the street has had his dog bitten multiple times within the last week.

I can't imagine having a run in with a Kangaroo while on a scooter. I don't think you would win that one.

It happened to my dad on his bike when he was still alive, and he ended up with a dislocated shoulder and snapped ribs from his arm relocating itself.
I've hit a kangaroo in a car back in the 90s, and the impact dropped my front windows slightly, ejected the ashtray, and pushed the radiator back into the engine.
In a way I was lucky because I struck him on the downward bounce, so that he didn't fly up into my windscreen. But the damage to the car was greater.
