Exclamation WARNING-Graphic Hunting images!!!

Hey Everyone,

I've been noticing lately that the grass outside of our office is starting to look like an amateur golf convention has come to town and they're all using sand wedges to tee off with. Our beautiful lawn is being destroyed and we can't figure out what could be causing such a mess!

A few weeks ago I bought a cross-bow in hopes of baggin' a Georgia whitetail. I've been practicing shooting at various distances, and at night as well. I'm no Ted Nugent or anyone you would see on a hunting show, but I can now regularly put arrows on top of eachother at upwards of fourty yards.

I was burning the midnight oil, as I do many nights of late and I decided to get a breath of fresh air. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw movement in the distance. Where our offices are, it's not that uncommon to spy a white tail, a coyote or even the occasional fox. Not tonight though.

Instead, it was the yard killing culprit. I caught him red-handed and decided to take matters into my own hands.

(scroll below for images)












Warning-Please don't click these thumbnails if images of hunting or blood offend you!!

Not to spoil your fun, but 'dillo's are the only animal besides man that carries leprosy.

Took my wife camping years ago - her first time - and she woke me up terrorized because she thought a whole pack of animals were about to stampede the tent. I shined a flashlight out and it was one small 'dillo - maybe 5 inches long. It's their natural defense mechanism to make lots of racket.

My uncle says it's not bad. He had it bar-b-qued. Said they gutted it, left it in its shell, drown the whole thing in sauce and wrapped it in tin foil.

I suppose it would taste like armadillo.

If you drowned it in BBQ sauce, it would probably taste like BBQ armadillo.

Sorry, couldn't resist! Hmmm. . .maybe it tastes like 'possum. . .
