I have never understood some people.
They choose to live in the wilderness where there are bear, cyotes, fox, bobcats, mountian lions, badgers, linx, owls, hawks, eagles, falcons, skunks, coons, groundhogs, wild pigs and not forgetting the wolves and they chain up their pet foo foo out side and leave them unattended.
Then they cry wolf when a preditor dicides to come across the property line and hunt the chained up pup.
Cityfied people are ignorant when it come to living in the wild. I mean no disrespect to any one, but they realy are...
We see this more down here in south east michigan only because we have more Cityfied prople. Every week some one is screaming wolf because their beloved pet foo foo got chomped by a fox or owl or a cyote because they leave thier pup unatended out side thier million dollar mantion they built in the middle of the woods 10 miles outside the city.
Every week someone looses a pet, I do understand their greif, but lashing out at the wild life because it invades thier property line makes no sence at all. And ya, when pet gets mauled or eaten tv cameras start rolling as if it is something so shocking.
Maybe it is just me, maybe I had the benifit of living on a farm as a child 20 miles outside of town and was taught that nature is what it is. And if you dont give it the respect that it is owed then you can expect to loose every time.
I have seen some realy strage things in the wilderness, There was one summer where I had to fight off a 10 point buck because it kept comming in the yard and starting a fight with my beagle. Every day for about a month this deer would come in the yard and lower its head bearing its antlers snort and stomp the ground just feet away from my beagle that was chained up.
I had to go out every day to break up the fight and a cople times the deer turned on me with its pissed off mood. I finaly put an end to the nonsence with a loaded shot gun. I went out and let some bird shot fly up in the air ......
Gotta run, be back to finish after a cople hours of ice fishing
