You mean to tell me that the good senator, here, is potentially looking at solving his (totally not hypothetical problem) with an ineffective, acute / tactical solution when the situation calls for a strategic / systematic solution?
Bless his heart.

Yep. Skunks and possums are the same. They tear the heads off and leave it all behind.

It’s the damn groundhogs. They get into your garden and eat half a tomato and leave the rest on the ground for you to find later in the day. Arrrrgh! Infuriating little furry creatures they are!

Even if we take him completely seriously, that just means he thinks chicken lives are more important than the lives of human children. It’s as though the lie is so egregious that it distracts from the fact that the opinion is ludicrous even without any lying involved, and somehow that leads to him being able to say it without becoming a pariah.

The last 2 years, something, I am suspecting racoons, has gotten into my corn plants and eaten every damned ear just before they were ready to pick. Every. Damned. One. Always happened at night (hence my suspicion) and they left the stalks standing. This year I did not plant corn. Maybe convince them to go harrass someone else.

For me it was groundhogs and possums. I never caught raccoons eating my corn.

Same here. Last year I lost all 100 over the course of two nights. Didn’t leave a single kernel on the ground. I tried setting a live trap but the dopey sparrows kept springing the trap.

A few years ago my daughter wanted to try growing corn in our backyard. It grew very well until we were just about to harvest. Overnight every stalk was broken down and every ear had one or two bites out of it. Definitely raccoons.
What with all the paperwork involved in getting an AR-15 in Canada, it’s simpler just to buy our corn at the supermarket.
