What might be more weird is your temporary bout of dyslexia: Those are Gods.

Cool! I've seen deer and foxes on our property on my trail cam. I think the foxes that I saw were gray foxes.

Plenty of deer around here but no foxes. I would like to see some foxes sometime. Somebody once described fox behavior to me as "cat software installed on dog hardware"...

Yep, what little I've seen of them is like that.

I was in an area with bears and cougars this week. Happy that I didn’t see either!

I don't want/need to see deadly animals too close when I'm exposed/vulnerable to said critters.

When I steal the above writings as my own, I'll think of you both

That is, and we have a bunch here, perfect for the subject.

Used to have foxes scamper across my parents yard occasionally in indiana, super cute little guys.


Racoons are super common in most places I have lived. It is so normal to see them that I forget how completely adorable they are compared to most of their varmint cousins.

We've had lots of critters, but no kitties.

Deer, armadillos, possums, racoons, skunks, foxes, rarely rabbits, and Coyotes (besides a large variety of birds including various predators and other large birds).

I've got a buddy that lives in a neighborhood in Plano, TX that's seen bobcats on his Ring. He says his neighborhood is full of rabbits.

I wouldn't mind a bobcat, but mountain lions would give me pause.

Nice dog for sure. Just as long as you don't wake up in the morning and find him sleeping on the end of your bed.

I could use some of the foxes, the rabbits are over running my yard. I did not even do a garden this year because there are so many of them.

Years ago we were staying with friends and heard a vixen calling through the night. In the morning our host said she hadn't been able to sleep as she thought she was hearing a child crying out in the field, so she put on her housecoat and went looking . We had to tell her the "child" she was seeking was actually a horny fox.
