He better pray I don't catch him.

Wow!

Is it really a rabbit?! Because when I initially saw the droppings of that size I thought “rabbit”…

BUT rabbits don’t get into car engines and chew wires, do they??!! If so, then I don’t want to cross paths with that rabbit! I’d rather you say it was a raccoon or something else more expected.

I did not know they chew wires either.

You can also see the chewed shroud outside of the battery.

Catch him????????? Why bother when a .22 LR

will solve the issue.

I was gonna hang up the first one to show his little buddies what happens around here

Like that scene in Unforgiven with Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman, and Gene Hackman. What a movie!

LOL!!!

hang up this picture in your yard

Warning ...  

YIKES!!

 
 By: MichaelC : February 7th, 2024-02:54

I drove it in the neighborhood. The power steering is out. Otherwise, it runs OK.

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-17:05
Still, I am having it picked up on a flatbed. I don't want to risk driving and having an issue with the brakes. Once at the shop, they will replace anything damaged.

Better, indeed!

Better get the Holy Handgrenade of Antioch ....

So am I ;-)

That’s a lot of crap!

 
 By: ArmisT : February 5th, 2024-02:35
Looks like something(s) was living there for a while, as opposed to just passing through. Very curious to know what would hang out around car motor/battery. Could be a rat I suppose.🤔

I had driven the car about 6 or 7 days before

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-04:54
And it was fine. Then we started it up a few days ago and bam, almost every dash warning light came on. One small loom of 2 wires was chewed threw completely, and he also got into another loom. Thankfully, my insurance will cover the repair (less the dedu... 

Oh wow!!!

 
 By: amanico : February 5th, 2024-07:52

Yes. Wow in a bad way.

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-17:06
Opening the hood of the car to discover this problem is not exactly like opening a watch box for the first time!

LOL. Good one! ;)

A common problem in my neighbourhood is weasels.

 
 By: Uncle Chico : February 5th, 2024-10:35
They chew the hoses. It happened to me twice. I’m told they find the engine coolant sweet. When my wife, who loves all animals, asked if it died I replied that I hope so.

They also getting high in the coolant??🤔

 
 By: ArmisT : February 5th, 2024-16:49
Weasels makes more sense. Rabbits is still scary to consider.

This is definitely a rabbit.

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-17:05

Never seen a weasel where I live. Black bear (once), mountain lion (once), bobcat, elk, deer, porcupines, coyotes, turkeys, rattlesnakes...

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-17:13
bullsnakes, rabbits, mice, owls, eagles, hawks, groundhogs, and all the other usual birds and critters. Lots of wildlife, which makes it fun. This time of year, I see massive elk almost daily. Very cool.

Bad wabbit! I'd go Elmer Fudd on this rabbit! String it up as a warning for other rabbits!

Rabbit meat is edible too - if you want to eat it! Grrrr! Bad rabbit!

I am re-watching The Sopranos for the 25th Anniversary

 
 By: MichaelC : February 5th, 2024-20:40
I recall the scene when Artie prepares a meal with rabbit during a storm or something (although I have not yet made it to that episode).

I say we eat this rabbit and put on that episode just for the occasion.

 
 By: patrick_y : February 6th, 2024-01:32
Cue the Sopranos theme music!

Woke up this morning...

 
 By: MichaelC : February 7th, 2024-02:55

And we caught the rabbit?
