That's a lot of sausage.

I blame that mock investigative Geico commercial that refers to Jed Clampett as "out shooting food" for making me view wildlife not as majestic creatures but as food.

Like grouse, being chunks of flying meat.

Last night, driving home from work, I passed a herd of about 40 deer huddled up in a field. Then, two miles later, I passed another herd of about the same number. Then, four miles later as I was nearing our farm, lo and behold...another herd of about 40 deer.

"That," I found myself thinking, "is a lot of sausage."

I don't even like deer meat.

I'm disturbed by my thought process in this matter.

Deer are majestic creatures. Some refer to deer hunting as "The sport of Kings"!

Deer are a lot less majestic when they are dead, bloated and stiff in the ditch.
