    Lougle it?

    :green:
    Yes. From Hot Tub Time Machine. Funny movie but I haven’t watched it since John Cusak came out as being a douche. He‘s on the list of actors I refuse to watch since they all went vocal during Trumps term. Used to like Garth Brooks too before I found out he was a libby. That’s neither here nor there. Didn’t mean to take away from the subject of this string

    We see coyotes quite often in my area. Closest on to me was 4 houses away. I was in my truck, he/she looked at me, I looked at it. When the coyote walked in the middle of the street, when I started driving towards it, it took off down an alley hauling ass. Had a cougar show up about 30 yards from us, didn't stay long before it went back into the tree line. Also found a bob cat sleeping in my back yard about a year ago. I told it that I was going back in to get my gun and if you were still here, you would be a dead bob cat. When I came back, less than 2 minuets, it was gone.

    One minuet is a long time, much less two.

    Given the resolution of that pic, it could be Sasquatch...

    I saw the title of this string earlier but didn’t open it because I thought we were going to be talking about dirt work. Who gives a flip about a short front loader moving dirt? This was actually interesting. I didn’t realize the cats were that big. I’ve never seen one personally.
    You probably never will. They are quiet and usually not public, but when they do they really don't give a f**k

    I pulled out of my driveway one Saturday morning. There was a big driveway garage sale 2 houses down. Standing in the middle of the street was a coyote about the size of my male Rhodesian Ridgeback! Looked at me and took off down the next driveway about 20 feet from all of these people! Could hear them yipping at night from their drainage dens.

    I've seen bobcats, coyotes, eagles and deer in my subdivision and I live in a reasonably built-up suburb. Why none of the predators will do me the favor of killing all the raccoons around here is a mystery. If I could bribe them to act as pest control I'd put up with neighbors complaining about their missing pets.

    You need a sasquatch, I hear they hate trash pandas more than barking dogs.

    I saw that too. It changed how I feel about BCs. I used to leave the bobcats where I live (East TX) alone. Now they are shoot on sight
