I swear they are mutating to suit the environment , growing up on Bowen Mtn ( not Waltons Mountain ) they were as big as medium sized dog and the screams often saw the police being called by newby homeowners to attend to a woman screaming in the bush
Here in down town Dub Vegas they live in the storm water drains and are no bigger than a small ferret and growl rather than scream , wily little buggers too they can squeeze through very small holes in fences to make a quick get away.
Anyhoo so long as it is a quick death I dont care how they die . Hate them and hate what they do to the native critters but I think Ive already made this clear b4.

Flat cats' got a freind , but I'm out 200 bucks to fix the bumper, small price to pay for another one down.

$200!! big cat or low car?

why fix it, just buy a spare. then next time you go out hunting in the car you put the dented one back on

Bit of both Buzz. Only got a plastic bumper so it's only good for one shot, few Wallabies have done some damage in the past to it as well , at least those little buggers get up & hop away though

Just went for a drive ( to test headlights ) around the tourist circuit that passes the zoo , very nervously looking out for roos and what do we run over ( just miss actually) an echidna no not kiddin ya , so close to town.

Glad u just missed it. Them guys we don't want flattened. Maybe they are like the flying foxes in Sydneys Botanic Gardens. Looking for food cause this human plague the earth is suffering from has taken over their habitat.

How many thousand of the flying pains in the ass do you want? We're over run by the little buggers. As for the Echidnas, love them, but the dogs go ape at them. Had one in the front garden a few months ago about 1 in the morning. Dog wouldn't shut up, so I had to move the Echidna. 1 hour later, 8 degress, standing there in boxers & a T-shirt, I finally got the bugger out of the ground, put him in a cage I use to carry chooks, so the kids could see it in the morning before I let it go. Got up at 5, went out & he'd bent the weldmesh wire & made a break for it, took me an hour & a half to fix the cage.

Just a few more how can you not love them ? I put up this challenge ...convince me of another smallish parrot that is easy to hand rear and Ill seriously consider getting a pair of them instead of the whiteface pieds I have my eye on.
Go on please do it coz really couldnt handle other halfs cussing and threatening to tie them to the clothesline and do aweful things to them like he does to bob and ollie ( wouldnt do it really ).

Go the Scallies, Quarrion of the Lorikeets.
