Got one for ya' - I think. Yesterday I was walking along a small river bank, - and saw quite a bit of water splashing near the edge. It was a muskrat trying to get his hands on a couple of ducks!! The ducks zipped into midstream pretty fast and relaxed - big mistake. This muskrat, zipped over and made another attack - actually came pretty close to the male duck. Then both ducks flew off quacking like no tomorrow. This was not an especially large muskrat - and both ducks were full size to say the least. ... That sob was one tough muskrat - but since when to they go after something as large as full grown ducks???

Quite common, MoGuide......it may have felt threatened and was defending turf. I have seen it before.....

Life's journey is not to
arrive at the grave safely
in a well preserved body,
but rather to skid in sideways,
totally worn out, shouting
'...holy sh*t ...what a ride!'

Or, as the Cowardly Lion asked, "why does the muskrat guard his musk?"

"Whadda they got that I ain't got?"

"COURAGE!!!"

Good one, Obi!
