Roadkill?

[Furore]

Any other Queenslanders will know this...

Around here, we are encouraged to kill cane toads. This means people swerving to kill the things instead of trying to miss them like normal people do =/. Poor toadies. Not their fault some idiot introduced them to Australia.

We unfortunately have alot of wildlife in this area, and among the seas of dead toads that line the gutters [Ew, ew, I know.] we get the occasional bandicoot or snake or sometimes even [=(..] kangaroos.

That's what I love about the NSW/QL border...
Bring your baseball bats, hockey sticks, cricket bats, tennis rackets, long pieces of pipes and most importantly..... your golf clubs, and play the wonderful sport of toad bordering. If you're batting for NSW you try to kill them or at least send them well into QL, if you're batting for QL basically the same thing only into NSW. Whatever the case, most seem to die anyways so it's all good.

Barbaric some of you might be thinking? Well, not really. The toads eat smaller native creatures and can grow in plague numbers due to anything capable of eating them dieing from their poison. And they do tend to die very quickly. Mostly.

OMFG, how fun does that sound? Play with golf clubs man! How far could one actually send them?

As for myself, can't say i hit any animals during roadkill. My aunt did though, a couple of cats actually, over some time. Apparently, cats here think its smart to sleep under cars during the winter, of course, right next to the wheels. Problem is, when people actually use their cars, they start by having one tired do a bump sound.

Sad..

About six months ago, I hit something. It was big, so it could be a variety of things. I didn't check to see what it was in fear that it might be human.

It was three in the morning, and I was driving to pick up someone. I was going down US-1 (road that follows the east coast of Florida) and it was foggy and the road was under construction. Going 60, you don't have time to stop.

There was a little damage to the front, but nothing too bad.
