I'm not against environmental issues at all, just those who propose

hunting while eating a McDonalds hamburger, for instance :-)


Probably the same thing they think when their dog or cat gets
attacked by a coyote, coydog or hawk.

I'm actually hoping for something to take the tiny yappy dog next
door. The neighbors are lovely people except for a total inability to
understand how much their dog irritates others, especially after 11:30
PM or before 7:30 AM.

The dog barks whenever it sees something interesting. But it is
interested in everything. And the bark is piercing. Another neighbor
says he can no longer sleep with his windows open.

It's a tiny Yorkie. A cougar or coyote would be overkill. A Great
Horned Owl would do nicely.

I'll bet a great blue heron would do as well. Amazing what they can
choke down.
