Dinosaur catch & release program

Rocky finally caught one today!


By the time I raced over with my camera, Rocky already had the dinosaur in his mouth. Luckily for it, Rocky hardly has any teeth and dropped it when I told him to. The poor dinosaur was stunned and wasn't moving quickly, so Rocky was able to step on it again until I blocked him. Eventually it made its getaway when Rocky was distracted by some nearby grass. He seems to prefer grass over anything else.

A really hot car


My friend Willy took these pictures as a car unexpectedly burst into flames. He said there was no collision, and fortunately, no one was hurt. Check out the tire in the last frame.

Rocky goes on a dinosaur hunt

..but fails, for now

lizard

Rocky Raccoon was out on one of his closely-supervised excursions in the yard, and I actually had my camera with me. I spotted several dinosaurs, and Rocky spotted this one as well -- from way across the yard. By the time he bounded to the tree it scampered up, with Rocky in semi-lukewarm pursuit. To his credit, Rocky was able to find his way down the tree without much difficulty, but the dinosaur escaped to live another day. (Picture is blurry due to improper camera setting.)

If Rocky had caught it, I would have made him release it. I can't stand when he kills "my" lizards, I don't even like when he flattens the many crickets that manage to find their silly ways into the house. Cockroaches are another story, but those stories are too gross to tell here :P
