Do you ever see wild animals?

Do you ever see wild animals?

There are certain times of the week that wild animals are more prevalent in my neighborhood. It’s during these times when I have to be extra cautious about allowing my grandson to play or ride his bike outside my fenced yard. I have to keep my dogs confined to keep them safe as well.

One wrong move and they could be flattened. A loud noise or misconstrued sound and my loved ones could and probably would be viciously attacked.

Over time, I have noticed that the intake of particular plants, herbs, fluids or other extraneous edibles, create a sense of paranoia and even prosecution in these wild creatures, therefore, I’m very careful to keep my beloved dogs and precious grandson inside when the inhabitants, of which there are many; start partying hard in the dilapidated house on the corner. Talk about wild animals!
