 Nope. Lots of Escargo. Them are hard on the blades. No walking Catfish, either. Just the plain ole flatheads. ???

I must admit that if an adult pine borer lands on the cant while I am cutting I will make a special pass just for it.   I don't like them especially if they get down the neck of my shirt.  Sometimes it feels like a war out there.

flying squirrels

various grubs creepy crawlers
Frozen Wood Duck eggs

I had a raccoon exit a log as it was rolled on the carriage. It was a log that had been a tree in the morning, trucked, and off loaded right on my log deck. He never was harmed but was about 30 miles from where he was the night before.  When I was working in the woods running the slasher, I cut a big raccoon in half. He got a quick burial right there by digging a hole with the grapple.

Many years ago, I was off bearing on a double cut twin when a skunk jumped out of a log onto the transfer table that ran under my catwalk, the skunk disappeared to one of the lower levels of the mill with out incident. About 10 min later the cleanup gal had it cornered down on the first floor by the chip system and the out come was not quite as pleasant. The skunk escaped mill and was seen running past the planer unharmed.
