One way or another, the gun won't work. Either the lizards will tag team you while you stalk one, flanking you before you can fire, or your gun will end up unloaded just when you need it, or the creature will soak up bullets with no visible effect for multiple people-eating scenes. <BR/><BR/>I'm gonna keep the electric cattle fence charged. And maybe get a "goat on a rope" out on the front lawn to serve as an early warning system. And if need be, I'm going with the Mosin 91/30. If the fireball and steel core bullets fail to dissuade the things, I've always got the bayonet way out there in front. And I won't feel bad about leaving one behind, pinning the lizard to the ground, while I get in my car and drive away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-34845415122853417652009-03-25T07:24:00.000-04:002009-03-25T07:24:00.000-04:00""If only... if only they had wings...""Yeeesssss!...""If only... if only they had wings...""<BR/><BR/>Yeeesssss!!!! <BR/><BR/>Reminds me of a sci-fi story about a kid who got 'broken-in' to dragon hunting.

Say until the idiot population of Morlock-food is reduced to it's normal very, very small demographic. Leave just enuff of the herd on the carrying range, to keep a healthy predator population.<BR/><BR/>Usta happen, too. My Bro-in-law's G-grandma was eaten by a grizz up in Montana, around turn of the century. She almost made it back to the cabin, tripped going over the garden fence.
