I’d bet there’s a serious shortage of squirrels, rabbits and other four-legged small animals, too.
Rats?
No poodles in that neighborhood
Not the squirrels, they've become so smart that they use the telephone lines to cross streets now..........They've yet been able to convince the chickens to try it.
As a side note, while I was still working at my plant on Detroit’s east side, I’d occasionally trap possums and coons around my house and drop them off about a block away from the plant while on my way into work...........LOL!
