I do wonder what happened to the rabbit I killed a few months ago when I ran it over on my bike. (not kidding) At night doing 20 mph on a downhill- I had wondered for years what would happen if I actually hit one. No damage to me or the bike, but dead rabbit in less than a minute from massive internal injuries- a direct hit. Went back to look for it the following day, and it was gone. Too bad it didn't happen up in Cleveland, several of the nephews would have gratefully accepted the road kill for dinner.
Know how many Aggies it takes to eat a rabbit?
Two. One to eat the rabbit and one to watch the road for cars.?

Ag in my 10s of thousands of road miles on the bike- (at least in Ohio) by far and away the road kill winners are possums. I even saw "the well integrated possum" many years ago. Was on one of my regular bike rides at the time. Got squished over on the side of the road. Over a series of weeks, became flatter and flatter. As a final indignity, the road crew painted an edge line right over him.
That was a digression- I also see with regularity raccoons, rabbits, and squirrels. Deer are bad news for a car, and our resident baby eagle made a bad decision to venture out on to the Interstate. We don't have armadillos up here to worry about.

Mike, I try to ride at least 2,000 miles a year, and lately it's been at least double that. Them pesky wabbits- if you've hunted them- are totally unpredictable in their movements. Some nights I see at least a dozen- most of the time they get out of the way, but they have a bad habit of zigging right in front of me when instead they should just bolt for safety.

Here the real enemy is the whitetail deer that has a tendency to jump in front of headlights. I went over my motorcycle one night only doing 30 when a suicidal kamikaze deer jumped out of woods right in front. I used both brakes but just before I thought I would hit him I put too much front brake on and over I went. MFer got away without even an impact while me and the bike went on sliding down the road. About two months ago the biggest buck I ever saw in this area jumped in front of me and I barely missed him with a quick move to the paved shoulder behind him. Otherwise he would have wrecked the front end of a new car at the very least. The braking swerve sure woke up my sleeping son in the passenger seat.??

Deer Whistles will work for you Bill. Inexpensive & they DO work. I put them on all Family vehicles years ago & we all can testify to multiple times where they worked. No hit deer in our Family since I started using them. I get mine at Auto Zone.

I always wondered if those things really worked....... unless you were in the mood for some road kill venison..........ummmmmm venison.
I could go for some with gravy and onions and mashed potatoes or grilled.

So did I, but after hitting deer twice in a month years ago (Dec 2005), I figured I would try them on all Family vehicles. Not one of us has hit deer since & every one of us can give multiple examples of deer stopping & occasionally reversing. Believe me, at 7 bucks or less a pair, they're worth it.
Mixed reviews?....I was asked by another DW fan how many negative reviews may have been from body shops. Just a thought, but my experience is just that...EXPERIENCE! Try 'em.

With deer whistles, you need to be at 35mph or more for them to be effective. First time I experienced them working was on a dirt road headed to fish the Au Sable River in Grayling Mich in 2006. My fishing buddy asked why a deer stopped in the road ahead. I told him I thought it was my deer whistles. I slowed as deer are usually in pairs (or more) & when I got down in the low 20s, not only did the deer in the road run off, but we saw the white tail of the 2nd deer (which had already crossed the road) as it took off too.
You won't regret the purchase.

I sold that motorcycle and got one with interlocking linked brake systems that do both front and rear brakes equally regardless of which lever you use. I also added deer whistles. Seemed to catch their attention long enough for me to slow down.

Actually, Canton Mike told me the same thing - and I put em on our truck. The deer whistles didn't work - A week later, I got run over by a deer. I was kinda mad at Canton Mike over that, but it's kinda my fault - the truck was parked at the house, and I was hiking way out back in the woods at the time....

Sounds good, we take ALL of our VISA reward points as restaurant gift cards for gifts or our treats have about $300 in my drawer now. Ummmmm, need to get busy on those.
