What would do this???
« on: September 13, 2023, 07:13:31 PM »
2 times within 3 days. ( I just put a camera on it)
Bent the metal stakes and hard plastic deer legs.
Took out 2 deer 3d targets that are pretty close to each other.
Zoom in to see marks on the neck.

My guess is either a cougar or an upset neighbor.  Probly a cougar  thinking easy meal.

If it were later in the year I would guess it was another deer.
What country can preserve it's liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon & pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants.

It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

Sarcasm: The ability to insult stupid people without them realizing it. 

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

They really must hate animals. We keep going with the line of thinking that they are preservationists, but I think there is room for them actually being sapian-supremacists who want all of the valuable animal species to go extinct, leaving only humans who are forced into an earth-exodus due to destroyed habitats and ultimately colonizing the solar system and eventually the galaxy.
