whats the difference between a mole, gopher and vole?

I wouldn't know a vole if I saw one but the biggest difference between a mole and a gopher is about 12 inches and.. eh.. 10 pounds or so. give or take.
 
I once caught a mole too, but I was too scared to pick it up. So what I did was sprayed it with water (dunno why really...) and then I somehow trapped it into a jar. The next morning it froze over from the water and near freezing temps. Oh wells!

Southpark is one word, and you are an idiot for not knowing that.

Idiot? who's the idiot?

Aarrgh! You're right! Still, Lemmiwinks was NOT a mole! 😀

I have too many files named "southpark - " (the number of episodes, plus another dozen or so)
 
Can't believe I'm the first to mention this, but I'm pretty sure that's a shrew. I don't know what I'd do with it. Let a cat play with it, if I had one. I'd probably kill it, or let it go on the property of somebody who has their yard manicured to the hilt... give them something to do. 😛
 
Let it go (as you have already said you would do) and then take pics of it waddling off into the sunset. Or sunrise. Or moonlight..... Or whatever.

🙂

Ummm... It's not a shrew, hahaha.

I realize there is no size reference in the pics, but it's like 10x the size of a shrew, LOL.

Not to mention its specialized front paws, and the fact that it moves only marginally faster than a turtle.. 😉

Mole Scampi

1 1/2 pounds Moles
1/3 cup clarified butter
4 tablespoons minced garlic
6 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice, fresh if possible
8 sprigs parsley, finely chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

Rinse moles and set aside. Heat butter in large skillet over medium heat. Cook garlic 1 or 2 minutes or until softened but not browned. Add moles, green onions, wine and lemon juice; cook until moles are lightly browned and firm, about 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Do not overcook. Add chopped parsley and salt and pepper before serving. Garnish with lemon slices and parsley sprigs if desired.



Excellent. Added to my recipe file. Thanks!

I don't have it anymore. I decided to let it go. It looked kinda distressed, and I didn't really want to hurt it. I think it was cold, and it still hadn't made a burrow or anything, was still trying to get out. I didn't want it to use all of its energy and die.

I took it up and across the street into a vacant lot/field. I should've brought my camera and took pics of it digging back into the ground, but I didn't think about it.

They're really strong. :Q

It ripped through the tshirt I used to pick it up like it was nothing.
 
hantavirus or rabies

Please back that up with a link, I have never heard of anyone catching rabies or the hantavirus from a mole?

Cut it in half with a shovel. That's what my dad and I did with 3 moles about two weeks ago. The damn neighbors who don't cut their back yard have a mole infestation, and they like to venture out into our yard.

We have 3 mole traps all setup on the property line where our manicured lawn hits their "field" of a yard. The traps don't work all that well... we've decided the best thing to do is to step on about 3 feet of tunnel....not packing it down, just lightly crushing it. That way, when they start to repair it, we'll see them start pushing the ground back up. Take your shovel and get them out of the ground and cut them in half.

I motion for ban. It's the same as killing a dog or a cat. Motion for ban.

Cats rubble through my garbage every single day. The break open the bags and they take things out and leave them all over the creation after they're done. They also piss all over my yard and various other places around my house. Do you see me catching and murdering cats? NO. I let them go. I'd let that little guy go too. You guys should all get jail time for wanting to kill animals.

Since when was killing a dog/cat = ban?
