I wanted to make something cool with it, but she is so small around, there isn't much I can do. Thought about string silencers, but that seemed wasteful to me. So she hangs for me to remember the day it all went down!

Tim, I asked FWC the same question when we had a major problem with them killing all of the ducks and chickens on some property I used to manage. I told them how about I trap them and dump them over the fence at their Central Florida Main office instead? They weren't amused. ;D

The fur market is really in the tank. Oh well guess I'll make my fame and fortune in another Hobby ;D :o :oBob
