Same people that believe “undocumented workers” are just like us and won’t change a thing if allowed to flood the borders.

Lol. That's an awesome encounter.
How often has one been picked off as its picking off his own meal? I'd guess pretty rare. That might be a good posable taxidermy set if not for the big hole in its side. Perhaps a mount point, but too late now. Good quick snap shot!

That's what I'm finding around my yard now.
Owl scat. It's hanging out in my little wildlife refuge near town. From the looks of the fur, it's leaving cats alone and going after small rabbits.

Tomorrow is mowing day. I'll have to watch where I step.
The country cat.lady needs something besides a predator although that's what it comes down to. She's snoopy like Mrs. Kravitz and I don't want to trap out her cats. It's because she's a long term neighbor and on decent terms. I'm going to try to work with her since she knows she has a problem. Her grown son won't help with this.

I've not seen them interact, but if they weren't so lazy, they'd probably have the upper paw.
For mouse reduction, I like the black snakes. Nothing better to rid the perimeter of field mice and ground moles. I just have to be careful mowing and weed eating. At the farm that I worked at for 7 years+, the girls were allowed to "raise" cats. The stupid dairy cow was raised out of tradition for the old ladies sentimental feelings. The milk was good, but one of the know it all girls (gt nurse) was afraid of brucellosis after three generations of fresh milk. I've never seen pigs fed such a rich diet. Barn cats too.

Mice everywhere. They needed a couple snakes and opossums as farm hands.
How I wish that I left the gal for someone like this one when I had sense.

I had a buddy whose house was flooded with little green garter snakes—only kind we have here. House sat right next to a very small creek and had a crawl space instead of a basement. He got a house cat—problem solved—that cat got very fat.

We had a passel of barn cats.One was a Tom Maine Coon.He weighed 35 pounds and was not fat.One day I went to the barn to feed my Llamas and he was munching on an Owl.He would regular fight coons.He was around for about 6 years and then disappeared.I bet a Yote got him.
