I don't think he could live with himself after hitting a loved one. If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went. - Will Rogers
I didn't actually hit a raccoon earlier this week, I am just busting Duffy's balls. But I did hit one once and I did not bother to stop. I was driving about 120 kph (~75 mph) at the time. There is no way it survived more than a few seconds. How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?
Saw a two for one deal driving home on I-95 yesterday. Or at least I assume it was the same car that got both of them. Nice change of pace from the porcupines that seem to routinely get squashed.
Blep and TheForge were hunting in the Canadian wilderness when a jealous moose attacked Blep. TheForge called 911 and the conversation went like this.
The Forge: My buddy was attacked by a moose, and I think he's dead. 911: Are you sure he's dead? The Forge: No, but he's pretty mauled up. 911: Can you make sure that he is dead?

I've seen that before. Pretty sure it's not real. The car hits it brakes after the guy lands on the roof and and somehow he stays put rather than becoming a forward moving projectile.
It doesn't have the same ring when you do it. "In the world I see you are stalking elk through the damp canyon forests around the ruins of Rockefeller Center. You'll wear leather clothes that will last you the rest of your life. You'll climb the wrist-thick kudzu vines that wrap the Sears Towers. And when you look down, you'll see tiny figures pounding corn, laying stripes of venison on the empty car pool lane of some abandoned superhighway." T Durden
I ran over an opossum a few months back. Was heading to work late at night, and was stopped at the signal light before turning into the building's parking lot. Saw an opossum run out just in front of the car, but couldn't see over the hood where it went. Light turned green, and I waited a bit and looked around to see if the thing was out of the way. Couldn't see, but assumed that it was gone, since it was dark and I couldn't imagine it just handing around. Started to make the turn, and immediately felt the front wheel roll over something. Sure enough, the next day, there was a dead opossum in the road.
But such winners, one of the few marsupials to survive and thrive rather than being driven to extinction by placental mammals when the S. and N. American continents joined up.

Sometimes on a bike ride in a rural area I'll see a raccoon or possum face up dead in the road. Usually I can find an empty beer can in the ditch somewhere and I'll balance it where it looks like the dearly departed is downing a Miller Lite or whatever.
I've wanted to hide in the woods to watch peoples reaction when they see that.
When you live in a small town you gotta make your own entertainment.

Found this possum abortion the other day...
Yeah kind of sad when you see the little babies crawling all over dead mama.
It is real (apparently). Happened here in Oz not that long ago.
It's a hell of a fake if it's not. Only thing I can figure is the car is just touching it's brakes causing the lights to come on, but not really slowing. Otherwise, I don't know how the guy wouldn't continue going forward as the car slowed abruptly under him.
All you guys are such turds. How can you seriously do this. Silly Duffy, that is just horrible, and makes me dry reach particularly as I had Dim Sum yesterday. Turd.

Mate, did you not notice that the vehicles are travelling on the right (incorrect for us) side of the road? Check the opposing traffic on the left hand side.
Plus we don't have street lighting that looks like that.
