Ben. Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 wow Ben, awesome! I wouldn't be able to live in Florida since you guys have crocodiles/alligators and those are the ONLY thing in the world that I'm afraid of. LOL there is nothing in Cali to kill...maybe find a lizzard LOL Don't even get me started on Gators. Our escort said if we could kill them off while we're here he'd appreciate it -- and it'd go unreported. There's apparently one BIG motherfvcker in the back of the property near a pond a creek/river system that ties into the St Marks River. Said it's between 12 to 15 feet long. Haven't seen it yet, though I HAVE laid eyes on one that was bigger than myself by and far, probably 9 foot according to their local wildlife refuge guy. Then a four footer that was missing a foot and a couple of infants that were poking their heads out of the water during this week while we were driving by. Mama probably wasn't TOO far away.. Let me find a Gator while I've got my 660. ESPECIALLY with the 3 foot bar on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpearce1974 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 rabbits good... you just gotta eat it with some sauce or something... its dry lol you ever seen someone kill a rabbit? not with a gun but an easy,fast, painless way to do it?....(no not running it over with a car) you hit it in the back of the head...and dead... thats the way my uncle did it at least....girls are gonna hate me lol Better than the way I used to help butcher chickens! Put a 2X4 over their necks step on each end, and pull! Cool thing is watching them flop around and twitch!! That is in truth where the expression "running around like a chicken with his head cut off" came from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 i considered getting a baby gator and putting in the pond by the house.. this was when we kept having hooligans go back there and drink their 40's and smoke pot (probably crack cocaine also) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedDemon Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 a good high powered airsoft gun would have solved that problem. they would run real quick haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 well you would THINK calling cops would solve it too but it didnt for a while.. esp. when the cop didnt even get out of his damn car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedDemon Posted May 8, 2010 Author Share Posted May 8, 2010 yeah they are like that out here. you can call them reporting someone using meth and they just waltz out here. someone calls the cops on me saying im "racing" and they are out here in 5 minutes. last time they did that i kindly told the state patrol to go fvck themselves and told the guy down the road to go sit on his ass and use more heroine.

I could never eat a snake... dunno if I could kill one either (though it'd be different if it was looking to kill me of course). I just can't imagine snake tastes all that good! What's it like? It's a bit too 'Waterboy' for me. if you've seen that film... everyone has seen the waterboy. snake meat isnt that bad, just have to cook it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick B. Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 snake meat is actually quite good. i sauteed it in garlic and butter over a fire while camping. it was delicious. rabbit is good, its a tough, lean meat though and you cant eat too many rabbits because of the risk of protein poisoning. turtle is also good. has a slight fishy taste but not overwhelmingly so.

mpearce1974 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 i love fish. rabbit is tough. i ate two sandwiches of it lol That is because you were eating wild rabbit I assume? We used to raise rabbits for eating, and they are way less active, and therefore less muscular. What I want right now is wild Pheasant, but a disease went through the Northwest years ago and all but wiped them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
