Just started up my tractor this morning and shot a small frog about 40 feet up into the sky! Is this the worlds first "Frog Astronaut"?

Around the marina where we keep our boat the muskrats just love the exhaust pipes on late 70's and early 80's Trojan Cruisers. Every time a Trojan owner starts up after some time away, out comes this great clump of vegetation, sometimes with an annoyed muskrat included.

Critter of choice around here is the dirt dobber. Have blown chunks of dirt up in the air before. Wouldn't think they would enter an exhaust pipe with it's fuel smells and all..... but they do.

Not only will they inter the exhaust, they will put up a Condo in a cylinder if they find an open exhaust valve.

Rebuilt the engine on a super M several years ago, the manifold was the only part left to be installed. Came back the next morning and discovered the mice had been really bust during the night, removed about two cups of soybean seed from the ports in the head.

When we pulled the old woodstove out of our camp I found a petrified bat inside the stove. Musta been there for years, it was totally stiff and dried out. I've got some pretty cool looking pictures of it somewhere.
