Two drops later, I noticed that the sound it made upon hitting the ground just prior to bouncing was not unlike that of a thick piece of rubber hitting concrete. Now, if you've read this far without thinking I'm entirely insane, I hope you will answer me when I ask if larger animals sound vaguely rubber-like when dropped from a few feet up or if they simply flop. Note that I am NOT advocating the slaying of any woodland creatures/pets/neighbors for the purpose of experimentation.

We definitely need a government program to study this. Do it under the DoD and it will show up on the budget as "protecting America."
