Did you ever bring home or try to adopt a wild animal?
Only frogs and snakes and that was a very few snakes. I also use to collect tadpoles from the pond on our farm. Once in a while I would even find a fish that I would try to bring back to the canal that was left in the ditch after the water was turned out of the ditch. There were plenty of other animals that I could have tried to catch but you would probably agree that skunks, porcupines and badgers would not be the best animals to bring home. I did kind of want to catch a cottontail rabbit but they were way to fast. There was a flying squirrel that I would have loved to have taken home from Yellowstone campground up near Altamont but it too was not easy to catch. So I was plenty content to keep the cats and dogs that were really my best friends and pets.
