Good morning!☕️ Grandpa didn’t even aggravate the buff. That one needs turned into buffalo burger!

 

[robertk]

Good morning. I haven't seen any buffalo lately but did see a coyote rush a deer in broad daylight yesterday. At least I think it was a coyote. It was almost out of camera range, a bit hard to tell.

Edit: It's also apparently a bit hard to upload here. I've tried twice and it wasn't viewable. Third time's the charm, I hope.

They die better that way?

Warfarin is prescribed to humans.

Think about that one 🤔

 

[pepperj]

The dead mouse, your coffee, the interior of your vehicle.... or.....

The dashboard heat, air conditioner is not working 😕

Yes Warfarin is used as a blood thinner. Thats why it's used as a poison. In high doses the rat bleeds out and dies. The problem is then another animal such as an owl, Bobcat, fox, etc eats the dead rat and dies from the poison too. I will never use poison but have great success with small live traps. They catch the rat which then is humanely disposed of. Snap traps are OK but I stopped using them when I caught a poor squirrel in one.

It's just a fingertip Pepper.
In my defence: When a person has -60% working digits-loosing the function of the flipper finger makes it a 50% usage of digits.
Something I simply can't afford at the moment

But I was told by the plastic surgeon "It's all in your head"

Pepper's inner thought was "FU-with a strong letter to follow-A$$hole"

A neurosurgeon might have a better explanation.
:Phantom pains are in ones head. Feeling 100% real though. So it's where it is felt. Usually where something is missing.
And it's (my accepted version) the brain sending constant update requests to all nerves.
When no signal returns from say area A the brain will create the last signal it received from area A instead. Or something similar. I'm touching a hot coal or am sprained or fractured in area A despite area A having been removed Vs sedated or blocked.
After all area A exists still to the brain because area A returned signals prior and no change in the last signal has been received to confirm or deny area A has been changed or been affected by anything.

Neuralgia is totally removed /unrelated to such. Other than the brain is recieving feedback from a very agitated nerve (s). Which is what "normal" nerves are for.
Trauma of a nerve can take a year (roughly+- ; again opinion ) to know where it's going to steady at. If it steadies.
Hypersensitivity in a nerve can have varied causes. Without confirming a nerve or a nerves condition that has been damaged isn't the cause of sharp or shooting pain I'd be amiss to assign an it's all in your head diagnosis.
It's obviously in a bodies best interest to not put pressure on damaged nerves or nerves with flared areas of growth.

Bison Flips Grandpa In Yellowstone National Park
'Buffaloed again':

 

[oldmxrat]

Good morning

50 yards is too close.
To a frisky satellite (non dominant with nearest cows and tending bull) bull.
To a bear.
To multiple creatures.
No not to each encountered.
But to the one in a hundred that is intolerant or defensive at the moment it is.
Sometimes the first encountered is the one in a hundred.
A real or imitation predator stops to focus on the bull and it's either fight or flight.
The vids bull is overly conditioned to humans as well.
Trying to wallow where there is no wallow. Rubbing objects scent can be left on in addition to the enhanced scent of damaged bark and foilage.as bulls and antlered cervids do. The bull wasn't advertising poor health or submissiveness.
Exhibiting health and condition and then as part of it ; the element of rapid surprise and agility used against all comers. Or at least those not powerful enough to counter.. Just like it has done with other bison. And now humans.
As if there was a reason needing explained the bull was alone in the first place.

Frisky means healthy. Look ladies I'm frisky!
Other bison demonstrate the inherent friskiness is a positive ; at/during their leisure. From a very young age.
