Hey, I ain’t talking about a dump here here but my wife caught me taking a relief off the back deck the other night and said it was disgusting...I told her I was reliving myself on the same lawn that our 2 cats, a dog and probably a dozen wild animals piss on each day, yet none of them pay the mortgage...so forgive me for feeling a sense of entitlement to mark my territory from time to time.
Well, we live on 40 acres out in the country. When we first bought the property my wife suggested that we get an outhouse for the far end so that if I was working down there I wouldn't have to come all the way back to the house. I explained that no guy who has 40 acres of woods needs an outhouse...
Fast forward a few years and I have read a lot about marking your territory. It turns out that we have coyotes, and mountain lions, along with coons and skunks. All of these guys can smell your urine and tell that a large carnivore left that mark. Now I am fairly regular at marking my territory to keep the larger predators down.
