Default Hitting an animal....

You know, if we hit an animal with our vettes.....what we have???

instead of say Pheasant under glass....we have...


Stear over glass, bird over glass, mutton over glass....

I think the glass would act like a baking tray, and gently cook the animal so the well done parts would be over header glass...and the less done parts over carb/induction glass....

I had a baby chicken go straight into my center metal grill.
It was quite humorous, the second I hit him he literally exploded. I looked in my rear view mirror and there was a huge puff of white feathers everywhere. I later found chopped bits of bird on my radiator and hanging from the grill.

I drove over a small gator last Saturday night doing about 70. I was able to avoid hitting him with the wheels, and I hear no "thunk" under the car. I think he must've ducked.

too bad, tastes just like chicken
