We have coyotes (I saw one in my backyard last summer), but my dog is big enough now (79 lbs.) that I don't think a lone coyote would fuck with him.  We also have had rabbits, but I believe the feral cats went ahead and fixed the glitch.  :cool:

Dont Coyotes usually run in packs? I ran into two Coyotes hiking a couple summers ago. I gave one a dirty look and it ran off into the bushes, and the other one kinda circles around me and I took a step towards it and it ran off too.

It feels so good to be part of such a bad ass "don't fuck with me" species.Besides, my people have a long history of communing with nature. Had my initial approach failed I would have used my dog fetish to summon my Coyote guardian spirit to ward off my attackers.
Winner of THE grumbler point.

My backyard animal hatred is reserved for opossums.  Little monsters.

Around these parts its raccoons that piss me off personally (at my previous house a town over I had to put a little bleach in my garbage cans to keep them at bay), but there are rabbits around here a-plenty & if I had a vegetable garden I would probably get more use out of my air rifle...

I've just signed a petition against the Newcastle city council's plans to genocide the bunnies living on a patch of grass in the city centre. Rabbit rights!

I'll think of you as I liquidate the rabbits in my yard.

Eat shit and die, Mr. McGregor.

Everybody thinks rabbits are so cute and innocent. Let them take root and BAM! They are crossing your frontiers in a Slav like horde.

I will not sacrifice the garden. We've made too many compromises already, too many retreats. They invade our yard, and we fall back. They destroy entire vegetable patches, and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far and no further! And I will make them pay for what they've done!

I am please to announce a victory against the rabbit menace, as the cat Drut did kill a rabbit. Breaking its neck while trying to escape. It is believed the battle took place near the bridge:

Although to a nitpicker like me, that supposed Tiger II looks a lot more like a T-34.
All of the Beatrix Potter books had a very hard time portraying World War 2 military equipment properly.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

The goddamn rabbits are back in my yard.  :mad:  Stop falling down on the job, lazy semi-feral cats!

They have crossed Cal's frontiers.  :(

I suggest rifle barrages.
