Saddest thing ever

[RareBreed]

Saw the saddest thing ever today on my way into work. Two baby deer that had to be only days or weeks old had been hit by a car. They were dead on the side of the road. What made it even sadder was there was a doe standing in the grassy median looking towards that direction right across from where the babies were.

I saw one get hit once - staggered off. I just wanted to go out in the woods and find it and bring it home and nurse it back to health and keep it prisoner and love it forever.

On a somewhat related note I wonder how Sneakers deer problem is - I ate a banana for breakfast and couldn't stop thinking about his banana. and the huge flower.

I have hit tons of deer before. Adults not littles. The price I pay driving into work at 4am.

I've come a little close - I've noticed lately with the few that I've seen on the edge of the road that they're hesitating before crossing actually seem to be looking. It's kind of interesting - I guess they're adapting to the environment. Or something scientific like that.

Deer: "Silly hunter. I hear him and smell him 200 hundred yards away and will stealthily evade him with ease."

Also Deer: " Oh look..a speeding car. Lemme see if I can dash in to the road and intercept it."

The reason the chicken crossed the road...

Spoiler: answer

To prove to the deer, raccoons, possums, squirrels.... that it was possible.

The chicken must be right because I've hit the other four many times but have never hit a chicken.

Drive through Hyattsville or Bladensburg a couple times.

Neighbor had ducks that used to sleep in the road so that is as close to a chicken as I got. I never hit the ducks but I would have to stop and shoo them out of the road from time to time.

The little ones are a whole lot more tender than the big, sinewy ones.

While living in Florida, a bunch of Muscovy ducks took up residence along side a fairly busy roadway. First 1 got turned into a road pizza. Same thing the next day. I called Fish & Game and told them what happened. When I gave the location, I was told that several people had already called. But Muscovy ducks aren't protected in Florida. There was nothing they could or would do. I was free to run over as many of those fuzzy bastards as I wanted. Next time down that road I gunned it.
