Sad trip to work
Well it was a sad trip to work this morning. As I was driving down Hwy 73 between Neillsville and Pittsville this morning I saw what I was hoping I wouldnt have to see this early in the year. A fawn dead on the road. The poor little guy couldnt have been more than a week old. I pulled my car over got out in the rain and pulled him over the shoulder and down in the ditch so children wouldnt have to see bambi laying there. This is the time we need to take extreme caution when driving early morningcommutes.

RE: Sad trip to work
I work in rapdius and live in neillsvilel so i know what youre talking about. long drive down some dark lonely highways a couple weeks ago I saw a very nicve sized bear on the north side of the road between pitsville and 186. Now that I have been keeping the cam in my car i dont see anything lol, well alive anyway. We have a sow with 4 cubs behind out farm. the dnr has to start issuing more bear kill tags or the problems going to get worse

That is sad, but it's nothing like Arkansas, where I think they have the most roadkill in the country, but I imagine that ain't half as bad as hitting a moose if you live in Canada.
