Does it also live in a hole in the ground and move a little slow? Your larger cousins, Ellie Mae (ATB) and Rosie Mae, (the Mayblossom girls (er, bloodhounds)) managed to tree a groundhog a few years ago at 2 AM in the morning. A fun time was NOT had by all, since the neighbors called the cops. Fortunately, the constabulary that was assigned to the case was a former neighbor and has beagles. Despatching the groundhog resolved the caterwauling.</div><div><br></div><div>Randy</div></body></html>
