If there are stripes on their head, you're normally dealing with a chipmunk.
If we're gonna wear uniforms, we should all wear somethin' different!

Back in the ‘50s my dad ran fire crews for the FS out of Darrington WA. They were taking a break on a road and one of the kids on his crew was trying to hand feed some chipmunk. My dad told him it was a bad idea but the kid did it anyway. He went to pet the chipmunk and it absolutely mangled his hand. Everyone got a good laugh but the kid was done for the season.

Pretty sure none of those things happened, considering how cute they are. Stop scapegoating them.

David "Dave" Seville would not prevail in the ensuing litigation, though much of the judgment debt would be later discharged in bankruptcy. Originally Posted by MagnificentUnicorn

At least goats don't carry out suicide attacks on the electric grid. The squirrels and chipmunks may look cute but they're trying to send us back to the stoneage, one circuit at a time. (I don't know why they need to kill themselves this way--we seem to be doing a pretty good job of it ourselves. A little patience and they'll be rid of us.) Originally Posted by Jong Lafitte

Ha! Perhaps, I think the goats possess the knowledge of how to take us out as well, but they are better at hiding the plan. I have seen a goat stand on his hind legs atop another goat (seemingly willing goat) to get at the tiniest tuft of straw sticking out of the top of a trailer. He helped himself mostly but also he ripped a bunch out and threw it on the ground for the whole party. Originally Posted by old goat

THis is a fucking shotgun situation. I usher spiders out of my place if they break the rule. What rule? don't get seen. Here, however, I'm inclined towards more deadly means for a clear violation of the main rule. Also thinking of making a second rule about not stealing bacon. Originally Posted by KQ

That guy would get a quick bap with the MAP gas torch, as they do around here if they're big enough for audible scuttling.
Bacon needs help anyway.

Spotted this buck and five or six ladies enjoying the post-rain grass while biking last week:
And this chunky rattler who was a bit lethargic from the cold and let me get within 3' before making himself known. He stood his ground and got aggressive until I ran off. One of the girthiest snakes I've seen in UT:

She's been hanging around with 2 babies for a month or so. They've been growing fast.

Yeah.
Hobo spiders... they get big (for the PNW at least, 3" leg OD) and can be aggressive.
If I'm quietly working on skis or whatever and hear a little scratching in the corner of the shop, fuck yeah I'm grabbing that nearby torch and blasting the muthafucka.
They're good candidates for glass jar gladiator battles, too, if you catch a couple big bastids.
