I'd call him George.

And then shoot him in the face for copping an attitude with me.

Love watching them when they hunt for red squirrels in groups. It's pretty fascinating to watch how they use teamwork and communication to their advantage. Such a cool little critter!

Their fun to watch and sometimes try to trap, but I'm just happy none of the members of the weasel family are 100+ lbs. Humans would be just another menu item to choose from.

Shoot him, but not with a .243. That will just piss him off and them snarling teeth will be dug into your ass!:whaaaa:

8 ft? Hell, you pass out in my yard with the chickens I've got now and we may never see you again. LOL!! Feathered Mini-Velociraptors is what I call'em. They eat everything and will pick a deer rib cage down to the bones in just a day or two. I'm kinda scared of'em to be honest. One bender in the yard and that's all she wrote. Not a good way to go......Yeesh!!!!

spoofy.jpgKDM,so true,came across a wolverine in AK wilst hiking a treeline bout shit myself but did'nt shoot at the time maybe still protected just like the grizz, buddy had a sheep down,we figured the critter was coming for it,same with grizz/brown bears if within ear shot of shooter its like ringing the dinner bell,they come running after the shot to clean up.

Anywho little some beech is stocking me,ran off the squrriels or better yet ate'em as he followed me to the cabin and is hanging out at my wood shed,named him "spoofy" as he can disappear with a blink of the eye.So damn quick

I have warned people many times about KDM chickens. They are cloned T-REX's in smaller version. Even the yotes give them a wide berth and he only locks them up at night to save what ever wanders into his yard.:;:muahaha
