You should see the kind of hold the oil, gas, and coal companies have in Wyoming. Cheney's ilk. Right now they are somehow working with the forest service to employee people to go in and remove trail signs and stop trail maintenance. Basically, if they can prove that people aren't using the forests and mountains, then there is no reason to not tear shit up looking for resources. There is no consideration being given to the animals or eco-systems. This is the areas around Yellowstone and throughout Wyoming that I am talking about. However, rest assured, these evil motherfuckers wouldn't blink an eye if they were given permission to actually develop refineries within the park. Sometimes, I believe it is just a matter of time.

Yellowstone, the park itself, breaks my heart as much as it lifts my spirit.

Pandora, when porcupines make love, the process lasts for hours with both animals moving very slowly (not surprisngly really) and gently. They have been known to stand together, much like this guy here, kissing and rubbing noses for hours on end. In one of my poems, I once referred to a precarious situations as being "delicate as porcupine copulation" but I don't remember what I was talking about.

I love hearing about nature, I am always amazed to see the things we have in common. Please keep sharing your stories I so enjoy and I know I am not alone. It is uplifting :thumbup:

here in western wa
there are tons of porcupines.
the sad part of the story is they are hit by cars at an alarming rate.
in a 20 mile stretch of highway i have seen almost 10 or 20 porcupines on the side of the road.
very disturbing to me.
i want the state to erect porcupine warning signs like they do for deer.
but wait... deer are big and ruin cars and possibly harm the driver.
poor little porcupine gets the shitty end of the deal.

:( here it is possum & raccoons, lots of them
If I had a wish it would be that the animals would have a revelation and learn how to look both ways before crossing
no more roadkill

I'm with you on the hitting animals thing. Good lord, how hard is it? I have successfully dodged about 1 million mammals in my life. I have never hit anything bigger than a rabbit and that was one time only. I drive faster than fuck right through all the critters and it still has never been a problem for me. Do people even keep one eye open when they drive? Seriously, what the fuck?

jackrabbits are the some of the dumbest animals ever...out in the nevada desert, at night, they like to play russian roulette with cars...as soon as they see the headlights get close, the jump out and try to make it across the road...yeah, half the time they don't make it...my mom on more than one occasion destroyed the grill on her car as a jackrabbit made a leap, or hop, of faith :?

Norm, the one rabbit I did hit was on a highway going through the Nevada desert.
