...a rabbit on my way home earlier.

Schtoopid kamikaze ******* jumped right under my wheel.

A message to all rabbit-kind: Don't jump out in front of me... I won't swerve into the ditch (and kill myself) to avoid you. I have 3 tonnes of metal at my disposal... you're just a little ball of fur.

    Tommy admit it.. you sped up when you saw the rabbit. I can see it from the smirk on your avatar.

      I did the same thing a few years back in the middle of a snowstorm in Montana while on a hunting trip. Only it was a moose that ran right out in front of me. When my car hit the moose, I lost. My car went careening down a ravine, and the moose just looked on with a big shitty grin, then ambled away without even a scratch.

        Years ago, when my X and I went to see my Dad, we were driving to Seward from Anchorage, and a HUGE bull moose swanggard onto the road, chewing the cud and looked at us. X honked the horn and rolled down the window and told the critter to move. I said, "honey, that 12 FOOT RACK on his head can tear through the radiator on our little rented Ford Focus without denting it's fuzz."

        The moose, I swear smiled like it was saying " damned straight! 48ers!" He finally moizied back into the forest, as though he were saying, "I'm bad, yup, don't mess with the MOOSE...damned 48ers!" His walk had ATTITUDE!

        FUNNY! but yea, those guys are MEAN, have a TEMPER that you don't want to get fired up, and they can do MASSIVE damage to a car. Trucks--5th wheelers, now that is usually what'll kill a moose, and YOU WILL STILL HAVE GRILL DAMAGE OR WORSE!

    Shame on you, how dare you kill a poor, innocent rabbit?? I am so angry! I am going to get PETA after you!!!

    You should drive slow so you can stop in time when you see a cute, innocent fur ball. And if you swerved and landed in the ditch at least the cute bunny would still be with us.

    Now there is some kind of thing you can put on your car. It's supposed to make some kind of vibration noise that animals can hear so before you come they know to get out the way. Get one of those and stop killing animals!!

    Sonora - Rabbits will dive right under the back wheels of your car without even getting in front of it. As careful as I am I have bonked a few which have run right under my car from the ditch. Once your front tires are past them you really can't control much. They can hear a car - the gadget is a fraud. Person can hear it too if their ear is close enough to the ground and our hearing is a joke compared to animals.

    There were Moose where I used to live in N. Idaho. I used to take bananas out to feed them when I went walking. One knew where I lived and would come and ask for them (not in as many words). They were my friends a long time before I learned they were dangerous - and I about soiled myself the first time I saw one kick out sideways, LOL. So did the jerk she kicked. Hahahahahahaha. How can anyone not love the little fuzzies?

    i was mortified: was it dorothy was talking like moose for Thanksgiving? say it isn't so dorothy.

    as for me, i loved a bunny child for 10 years. RIP Blessing the Bunny. I can forgive an accident, but never forgave the guys at work that were so sick of me talking about 'my bunny' that they would start - oh wow rabbit stew and all this meeeeeaan stuff.

    Where I live is near a major highway and there are 2 main ones that i used to have to navigate to go to work.

    The idea is to sneak between the 2 major mileslongparkinglots they called hwys via 1 lane in each direction type of back roads and on some steep cliffs and embankments (and no railing for the most part).

    There is this place called Cummins Skyway - it is what you would call backroads but it is actually a couple of little mountains. Because it is near the Bay it sometimes has extremely thick fog.

    Well it's only about 2.5 miles end to end to get to the junction hwy.

    Anyway - you can't see the front fender of your car let alone peoples lights if they are smart enough to use. If your car is white you are completely invisible.

    There are wild deer all over as well as herds of cows and llamas.

    It used to just ruin my day when I would see a deer dead on the side of the road.

    One time on Tuesday I saw a deer dead on the side and the next morning on Wednesday I saw the fawn dead in the exact same spot.

    I guess the fawn went looking for his mom.

    It was sooo sad.

    I have never actually hit and killed something. I have come very close many times.. One time on the free though, I ran over a deer that had already been dead. It was pretty sad still.

      He confessed to us, which is good enough

      There are rabbits near where I live but they only come out around 2-3am, whenever I come home late I see them hopping on the streets. It's strange..
