The Bitter End.

From the Wikipedia entry on Armadillos: "Armadillos... make common roadkill due to their habit of jumping to about fender height when startled (such as by an oncoming car)". That'd do it.

Is that what's happening? Because those little guys don't run...I mean, it's not like they're darting out in front of cars, yet I see a dead one every day :(

Possum on the half shell!

.... Star, you see 'em out running Flatwoods? That used to be one of my fave things out there, 'dillars running around all over the place.

Evidentally, that's what's getting 'em, Star.

Hey, Chase, with global warming, you might get some 'dillos up there!

Hey Mrs. Petters what's for dinner? One dead Armadillo!

Why? To show the Armadillo it could be done, that's why!

I thought Bernie's mom fed you possum? Was it armadillo?

Mr. Matt said...

Hush your mouth! Possum? SuperD, I was a guest, you don't feed a guest possum, unless it's on the half-shell, which it was. I am proud to say that as far as I know Bernie Petter's mom makes the world's best armadillo!

Yeah, when the Petters ask you if you're "game" for something, you'd better say no.
