Well Hell.  It has been a wonderful morning here in my little corner of the Peach State.  I use goats to keep the back corner of my land clear of brush and kudzu.

Had a visitor last night.  Vet and sheriff believe it was a coyote.  Killed two goats outright and ripped two pregnant females to shreads.  One had it's jaw ripped completely off and other's neck was torn open. Neither had died when I found them.  A charming $100 housecall from the vet to have them put down.

Laying out of work to spend the night on the barn roof.  Excellent fields of fire in all directions.  Since Brigade Quartermasters is nearby, I will aquire AN/PVS-7b NVG if needed.  Will see how tonight will progress.

Lost about $4100 today, so I am in a killing mood.[sniper]


Edited to add.

Piled up all four deaders in most likely approach route.   Buzzards already circling overhead looking for a snack.

Come and get it![IMG]http://www.theunholytrinity.org/cracks_smileys/contrib/ed/target1.gif[/IMG]

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Dairy goats?  Just wondering.  My mother has her own registered herd she's been working with for about 20 years.  You can get some major $$ wrapped up in them.

You're certain it wasn't [i]el chupacapra[/i]?

AR's are good medicine for [i]chupas[/i] up here - just remeber to use the Winny 64 grain Power Points and choose your point of aim well (if you don't hit them clean in the anntenna they get all pissed off).

You got to keep us updated on this one. I didn't know those POS attacked just to maim. Rip em up!
