Plus, venison is so damned tasty...how could you not eat it? :)

I am deer's natural predator. Does that count?

Most certainly! I shall amend my sentence above to: "A death by starvation is far more cruel and drawn out than death by a hunter's gun or a predator's claw or a wolf's fang." I would love to see wolves re-introduced to Colorado. One of the most amazing experiences I ever had was the sighting of two wolves in one of Colorado's wilderness areas. I was with a man who worked for the forest service and had a degree in zoology and he confirmed my ID of "wolf" for the two canids we saw through binoculars about a quarter mile distant from where we were standing. ;)

Technically, I don't have fangs. I have a .308

a deer suddenly jumped in front of my car. I swerved to avoid it, hit a ditch running alongside the road and was in intensive care for 4 weeks afterwards.
That is why people buy Expeditions and Hummers. You also have to learn not to swerve. :)

Says the CYBER wolf. You've probably got a fricken laser beam on your head or something.

Yeah, someone mentioned the not swerving thing to me when I was laying there in the hospital on a ventilator. It's hard to overcome the automatic response to steer out of the way of a sudden impediment in the road. I know of someone who DIDN'T swerve and the deer came right through her windshield - kicking hooves, antlers and all. Needless to say, she, too, was seriously injured. If anyone would like to make a donation to my "Buy Marichiko a Hummer" fund, please PM me and I'll let you know where to send the cash. ;)

Now what'd you have to go and tell everyone for? Geez! :rolleyes:

Well, it's either that, or you're not real...
