Well - I know what I saw but I certainly don't understand it. On my way to work I saw a dead raccoon in the center lane of a 5 lane road. Coming home from errands 30 minutes ago I saw a car with a young lady stopped in the center lane. She was picking up the raccoon in some sort of bag...

Food? Fur? Oddness abounds

You know exactly what you saw. What you don't know is why it occurred.

What state? I see people doing that crap all the time in the rural areas of TN. I think we even have a state law that makes it legal.

Maybe she looked at it as finding $30 in the road which required a few minutes of work to skin out. Average price was over $30 for a raccoon pelt this winter.

Think about all the raccoons you see on the side of the road; if you picked up all the good ones, you could get an extra few hundred a year for little effort.
Too bad dillos aren't worth something. Must have seen 20 on the way to Calloway and back.


FYI..armadillo's aren't feet up.

Interesting. I didn't know they were worth that much

Do you leave those outside the doors of the deadbeats?
