We live in southwest Texas on a rocky hill. Snakes, toads, roadrunners, all species of birds and bunnies visit daily. I did one Horney Toad a few weeks ago, but so far, only one deer. A group of wild Turkeys came to visit last month and were a bit pushy, taking over our backyard for an hour or so.
You just described my former Supervisor’s (RIP 2012) ranch in Clyde (Callahan County), minus Bobcats. He was a professional photographer (among other things)…definitely a polymath. I did a tribute series to his work some years, ago. If you are interested, start here and go backwards:
I love animals better than people for the most part. I love the Squirrel…and I want a prairie dog. I got bit by one last week. A woman brought one to work…one that she hasn’t socialized…and that thing bit the fire out of me…I still want one…but a baby or one that has been socialized.
No…it didn’t come from the wild…it was born in captivity…plus she has had it for months…so it would already show. I want one so bad. They are impossible to find….I do need a tetanus shot….I’m going to the doctor anyway soon for a check up…I’ll grab one.
Oh….she brought it to show me…she is a kooky lady and has all kinds of animals. Her other prairie dog….was really old…it was nice…this one was scared.
I’m about to nod off…

Pets and other animals are welcome at my house, as long as they don’t eat all the fruit and veggies my wife is growing or mess up the trash! 🙂

Prairie dogs are cute…but, yikes. No worries on rabies?
Odd that a woman would bring a prairie dog…to work… A wildlife officer, sure but…your office?
I love the animals around here.
