first time I decided to drive very fast, in the middle of nowhere on the way to a golf course, I got up to about 115 & a bird flew right into the grill & bounced over. My first thought was 'what a stupid animal. it probably dented the car!'
I thought the same thing :stongue: After I got home I though, "I better not have feathers and beaks and in my grill, I'm gonna be so upset"

I was driving my car real fast to school and i saw a pigeon in the middle of the road walking. So i slow down a bit to see if it walks away or flies, still nothing. So im like, ALL birds move when you approach them so i didn't worry.. :(
I felt a thump and i looked over my rear view mirror & saw a bunch of feathers everywhere BUT i did see the bird fly retardedly away- so i felt better :)
Don't feel bad about running over pigeons, we have an arrangement.

Back in 2003, summer, when I first came to usa, before school started, I wanted to hike to the top of Mt Whitney which is the highest peak in the contigous states (only peaks in Alaska are higher). So a group of us are hiking, it's not even daylight yet (we left at like 3am because we want to hike up and down in one day)...and a bunny hopped onto the path in front of me. My boot was already going down and I saw the little bunny but I couldn't stop my boot... there's something about when you are hiking uphill, I dunno...I couldn't stop my hiking boot in motion.
I stepped on the bunny. It was terrible.

Did it live or did your massive 14/f/cali feet squish it ?

they're so dumb they don't move out of the way, and they travel in packs, so we would mow them down, turn around and run the remaining ones over. looking back i would feel bad if they weren't so tasty.

ive never ran any animal over but at work i dropped a pallet on a pigeon while i was stacking product away, they usually fly away as soon as a 5 ton forklift goes near them. obviously this one was a bit slow off the mark :conf:

Look, the birds know the rules. We look the other way on them crapping on statues and they move when we drive toward them. It's nature's law.

hit a bird not too long ago... it smacked the windshield, flew over my roof and ended up in the bed of my truck. haha.
About 8 years ago a ing deer ran out in front of my car (a Jeep Cherokee at the time); I was going about 65 mph. The deer was mangled beyond recognition, and my car had about $3000 worth of damage to the front and side. Other than that, I've hit the usual.... squirrels, a cat once, birds... I'm on the road a lot so it's bound to happen.
