Squirrels, a snake now and then, an occasional skunk, possum, or racoon, and cats that are allowed to roam by the owners, and get on my cars, and in my flower beds. Fine invention those CB caps. ;)

I grew up hunting Squirrels and rabbits with a .22LR.  My Grandfather would shoot Groundhogs from the front porch to the garden, 115 yards to the front of the garden, 175 yards to the back side.  The old man used a Stevens single shot with iron sites.  He seldom missed.  I killed a bunch of Cats, and an occasional Skunk.  Dogs that people from Nashville would dump on the road near the house.  Partridge, Quail, Pheasent, and Crows.  A bunch of Goats got loose and thy owner wanted them shot.  I killed two with my .22.  Easy shots behind the ear.

Then I left Tennessee and went to New Mexico.  There I shot Jackrabbits till I wore out a Remington pump.  Killed a few Coyotes, and a bunch of House Cats.  We won't discuss the Turkeys.

Here in Alaska I shoot Red Squirrels, and Foxes.  An occasional stray dog or cat. (If it's on my property, and running loose, it's a stray)

What Is A Veteran?
A 'Veteran' -- whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve -- is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America,' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.' That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country today who no longer understand that fact.
