Also have the same in parts of California, it’s summer and the rodents and fleas are active. We have this happen every year, you have to be aware of the risks of the areas you go to and take proper precautions like don’t get chummy with the squirrels and make sure you don’t have rodent infections.

i REMEMBER ABOUT 30 or 40 years ago when animal rights groups were screaming about prairie dogs going extinct. I went by our old place in NE NM and it was covered with prairie dog mounds.

Wasn’t it the “pink mist” folks that had them all wee-weed up?

I believe it was. Pink mist! Do you remember an anti-hunting TV program from fifty five or so years ago called “Say Goodby” about hunting.
It showed the vaporizing of prairie dogs using a 30-30 rifle.

No, I don’t think so. Must have been hard to get within 2 feet of a prairie dog, though. Actually, i remember stopping at a few prairie dog towns while traveling. You can get pretty close, If you’re feeding them. i do remember “Bless the Beasts and Cbildren.”

I know. I read the article.

Mask up if someone with plague is sneezing on you. I don’t doubt that THIS stuff is real, versus the load of cr@p we were sold via Brandon to STEAL AN ELECTION.

Shut down the WORLD? Sure. No problem. *SPIT*

Also, mask up if someone is spitting on you. ;)

LOVE that movie. So creative. And the soundtrack is superb; this Yankee loves her some Bluegrass!

Greetings FROM the Four Corners.

It’s a hot dry desert here. I’d rather be here than anywhere else.

Greetings from the woods northeast of Hershey PA.

It’s been typical weather here.

Hazy, Hot and humid!

But I love my little acre of land with a trout stream in my back yard, along with the deer and turkey.

Thanks for checking in FRiend!

I’d be more worried about outbreaks of TB brought by the hoards of unscreened illegals flown all over the country by the Biden administration.
