I'll guess a racoon. They're tenacious little devils.

The Answer is........






A SKUNK! :huh: :ermm:

Funny thing was he was a cute very small skunk. His tail was straight up like a flag pole as he cruised around the Garage looking to scavenge. You see, just 1 week earlier I left the garage cracked about 10 inches and forgot to close it before going to bed.
The next morning I found that the garbage I had set in the Garage had a small hole in the bag and two chicken wings had been partially eaten. I tell you. I eat fairly blazing hot wings, so I figure he got some SPICY stuff that night! At the time I figured it must have been a cat or a possum or coon but now I see that his return with me out here speaks of his guilt.

I called my wife out to see him and we kept quite and away from him. He noticed us and moved under the car. I nelt down and looked at him, at a SAFE distance of about 15 feet and turned on ALL of the lights. He did not care for this and was quietly on his way. **Garage is quickly closed :whew: **

I say he was cute because he was no larger than a squirrel and his tail was erected as he cruised about like it was a flagpole and his squirter was on yellow alert just in case.
I had a friend over the next night and we spotted him cruising the parking lot. He ignored us.

I recently found a Turantula on my back porch, and last year we had the 10 inch Texas centipede in our kitchen. Two weeks ago there was a live scorpion cruising around INSIDE the toilet bowl!!! :o :o :o :ermm: No kidding. Luckily I spotted him, my wife may have sat....damn. We had the place sprayed.
I did not kill the centipede or the Tarantula, I thought it to be bad karma and helped them out to the back yard area.
If you recal I recieved the evil sting of a Scorp last year. We do kill them. I cut the poison tail off and feed them to my fish which devour them in seconds!

My wife caught an adorable tiny brown Gecko two days ago in a neighbors house and we have him in a small terrarium. The kids love to feed him tiny crickets now.

I need the Jeff Corwin experience to come shoot an episode or ninety here!!!! :D :ermm: (this is all very true)

Keeper of the spider-cats
I once encountered a skunk. I never came face to face with it though. I was around ten or so when I went to Idaho with my mom to visit her dad and stepmom. On the way there I somehow completely lost my sense of smell and one night, I think they were playing cards or just talking and I was in the other room playing with the organ when they all start groaning and holding thier noses. Needless to say I was the only one able to get close enough to the door. My sense of smell did come back, once I got back to Ioiwa, but not as well as it had been before I lost it.

Forget Jeff Corwin. With all them critters in your house and backyard, and your apparent ease with them, I think Animal Planet might have found itself another host. I'd like to know where you live so as to make sure NEVER to move there.

Yes they are. This is the type. Beautiful but their color is a warning.
