But now I'm thinking about the probability of a train hit landing the bugger right on the pole. As opposed to the wires.
There are a ton of these critters even around where I am. Perhaps there are so many of the buggers up there that the 3:05 outta Concord is going to clock 3-4 of 'em on any given trip, and it's only the strung-up ones that we find and get curious about. But if that were the case, rural electricity should be in danger - before that one caught the right angle to catch the pole, a few dozen should have hit the wires and either taken them out or been sliced in two.
