This is what my wife bumped into while working in backyard.
First of all Yes, I do cut my own grass but wifey decided it would be"fun" to ride around in back yard on riding lawn mower. We have 6-7 acres but only 2.5 acres to cut with mower.

It was very nice of your wife to conduct a recon of the area to search out enemy strongholds. Now you can initiate a strike to remove them. Then check to see how many points you are away from victory!
Erm...do I play wargames too much? :whis:
My friends went to GenCon and all they bought for me was this lousy signature.

I can top that. I rounded the corner of my house to go into my garage (naturally the door was closed) and took this picture with my phone. I was hoping that wasn't my neighbor's finger in his mouth. Turned out to be a spare rib bone. Fortunately they're pretty docile, but this was a little too close. He's not old, maybe a year and pretty small, but smart enough to unscrew the top of my neighbor's bear-proof garbage can. Oh, in case you're wondering, this isn't the backwoods of Maine. This is New Jersey.

Resolve then, that on this very ground, with small flags waving and tinny blasts on tiny trumpets, we shall meet the enemy, and not only may he be ours, he may be us. --Walt Kelly

"Bear-proof" garbage cans sound like dead-bolts on you house door or car locks. They only stop the lazy bears, and the really hungry bear will smash everything else in a 5-foot area getting the can open.

Actually, with the screw on top kind, they usually just sit on them, top blows off like a howitzer, most of the garbage too.
The town used to recommend one they couldn't get into, but the garbage men couldn't lift them, so ended up refusing to empty them. Hope the bears never unionize.

I do not know how this compares in the "one up" category with Dave's post. We have been having mountain loins, aka cougars invading the suburbs in Denver metro area. We are talking pretty deep into the city here. Seems they are traveling down a stream bed from the mountains.
Unfortunately residents forget their pets are considered by this predator to be the equivalent of a car hop bringing you a snack on a tray right to your car to hook on your window.
I do not think this wily devil has been caught yet. He may have just went back to the mountains. Mountain lions can roam a 350 sq mile range.
