Let me just say this, then I will depart this site since so many of you think I am a bleeding heart. I admit, I have become more that way over time.

I do run a farm and did and do work it (lesser extent now), but it is only a crop farm. Have never owned livestock, so I have no idea what you folks face with wildlife invading your operations. For that I apologize for being ignorant to those concerns. I have noticed that many farmers have no hesitation toward similar actions you take --- seems like there should be a better way, but what do I know.

Like you folks, I have seen many a cat and dog abandoned on my property, and I absolutely wish I could nuke those that leave them. I used to shoot them (not the people), just like you. Recently, as I aged and started getting more of a "bleeding heart", I have either adopted them, find someone that will take them, or take them to the a shelter if I can capture them, where they might have a chance. I refuse to shoot them.

I think one of the reasons you see so many dead animals on the road is increased human population, more cars, driving faster, etc. I guess what brought this on and what is bothering me more and more these days is the increasing onslaught of population growth, the competition and destruction it brings with anything living, and the future of our world. That's why I jumped on this thread. I should have just let it go. If you haven't noticed, this old world is hurting, and it is all due to us. I think we will be feeling that pinch more and more in the future. I'm glad I old.

I do want to thank most of you (you too, Hugh) for the very valuable help you have given concerning tractor repair, plows, etc. Again, sorry to ruffle feathers (but I'm still right -- haha).
