Isn't he so cute? |
The T-shirt is off now, but I am thinking that a fluorescent orange T-shirt is in order. Now that I hear that fawns are no longer off-limits to archers, dog walkers should consider investing in orange T-shirts for their pups. Buy one for yourself, while you are at it. Since archery season is over in January, fluorescent orange outerwear may be a wise investment for those cold days ahead.
In Mt. Lebanon, orange is the new black!

Fawns? They are killing fawns? Are they allowed?
Yep! Anything goes here.

Yes, to the part about fawns. I heard it directly from the horse's #@&.
Officer Bergman (I will check spelling on that) told me that fawns are "fair game." That was right after he told me that PGC regs are "relaxed" for special units, especially those with urban-like density (I kid you not). It's difficult to hunt in places like Mt. Lebanon. So, in order to "help" the hunt along, an archer need only tag his dead deer before he places them in his big pick up truck. None of that getting up and down from the tree stand each time he kills a deer just so that he may tag that deer. Because this area is special, the archer can tag them all at the same time, at the end of his shift. That way, he can kill three or four at one time.
Isn't that special?
He's very cute ;-)
This news is just sickening and cruel.
There is a pro kill person where I work and it's so difficult to keep my mouth shut. I must say I try to have as little interaction as possible as the personalities do not mesh at all.
Cute dog!
But, the good news, Boys and Girls, is that the New, Kinder and Gentler Mt. Lebanon has decided to Co-Exist with our most desirable wildlife, THE FOUR-LEGGED RAT! Yes, that's right, Folks. We can't train the gardeners in our community to live peacefully with those unspeakably dangerous deer, BUT our entitled community CAN learn how to change behaviors so as to discourage the insanely-fertile, speedy-reproducers who carry the white-footed deer mouse tick! The inmates have truly overtaken the asylum! As I've asked so many times in recent years: "WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG???" After all, aren't rats just squirrels with bald tails? I know that's what the picture in the rats-given-asylum article in the fabled Mt. Lebanon Mag. said, and you know if it's in the Mt. L. Mag., IT MUST BE TRUE. So, what are we to conclude from all of this? Clearly, the rats were scapegoated over those nasty plague rumors in Europe (who really knows what happened, anyway?)and are deserving of a second-look (and a second chance)...from all of us, I'm guessing. Anyway, I was thinking that since we brought in goats to deal with the park invasives, maybe we could rent some feral cats to feast on our rats-as-big-as-cats "rodent invasives". I think this might just be an idea whose time has come. We just have to make sure they get REALLY TOUGH CATS!
Was there an article about rats recently? L
Yes, page 23 of mtl Magazine. http://ebooks.mtlebanon.org/mtl/mtl-102015/ "Less Poison, More Education"
with the caption under the photo "Protect your property from attracting rats as you would for pesky squirrels (which are rats with puffy tails, right?) - keep bird seed in vermin-proof containers and clean up spills on the ground."
I guess a bird feeding ban is next on the list. Since "rats can nest in brush and compost piles...," we should outlaw composts too. I'm thinking a squirrel cull will be presented by White Buffalo next.
