Meal on the run

[crowski]

Stepped outside this morning only to be greeted by two grays. After retrieving a HW97 Blackline .22 only one left. He wasn’t there 5 minutes and my wife calls to see this.

A Mink dragged him up my driveway 200 ft. The squirrel was almost as big. That little mink dragged him and took breaks going up hill on the drive. I think he lives in the stone entrance I threw up by the targets.

I’ve seen tracks in the snow, thought they were squirrel. Crow

Man that is too cool… what a sight.

At least you know small rodents won't be an issue with that weasel around.
Well, maybe once it gets over the feast you provided.

A wild "ferret" is how I had to explain a mink to my lady silly gal

A fur coat waiting to happen...

It looks like he’s running, not at all he really struggled, and took a few brief breaks. Crow
Probably has a gut ache now.

I guarantee that weasel would've fought you for that squirrel. They are tough little $#%@s and fearless!

It was really cool, I tried taking a pic through bathroom window.

. Had to go on back porch where I shot 6 pics of him . Crow

I’ve watched Owls and Red Tail Hawks carry them away. Crow

Maybe a gun stock pad. Crow Their protected.

I wouldn’t fight the Mink if I had a Bowie knife in each hand. Watched him drag it 200 ft. up hill. Crow

Their very cool. I watch them all the time on the shore line.
Can’t say driving past a Mink farm down wind is on the bucket list. Crow

That’s really cool!!! One time I left a squirrel out, 2 skunks showed up even before it was dark and were fighting over the squirrel. My then 8 year old son was watching in amazement but he ran over to ask me how did the skunk catch the squirrel because squirrels are in tree and fast while skunks are on the ground and slow. I said I don’t know……..mean while on back of my mind I was thinking, smart little bugger.

Tell your son their not that fast. When I was six or seven I caught a squirrel. Still got the scar to prove it. Crow

Some activists set all the minks at the local farm loose. One got into a housing unit at the state prison i was a Sgt. at. Those "tough" guys were scurrying to their cells demanding to lock up. You'd think a tiger was loosed on them. That thing was fast and elusive. It would run under a table, when you looked for it, it would come up behind you. I thought there were multiple minks, but we only found one.
