That's funny. I wondered why he didn't want to set it back up right away, before the season ended.

"I can't tip it back up until I get a whole bunch of guys to help me," he said.

There goes your evidence folks!!

From my observation reading this article it seems the buck died at the hands of
this homeowner someway somehow.

No way a 180lbs buck kills itself and you go ahead and tag and eat road(backyard) kill??? Throw the dead deer away or have it buried.

SUSPICIOUS is me!!!!

Charges should be brought up against this family that displayed the concrete deer, clearly symbolic of human dominance over earth's creatures. In addition, a panel of experts should be assembled in an attempt to prevent barbaric acts like this, gnomes, garden frog, and concrete bird feeders should be disallowed.
Although nothing can be done about this deer, a lawsuit should be filed in an attempted to stop the "BIG" concrete deer conglomerate from profiting at the expense of helpless animals. Legislators should also require that all garden/yards ornaments be made of hemp.

I agree, Progressive, especially about the gnomes. Gnomes are dangerous bastards and not to be trusted.

I've seen folks drape their statues with blaze orange to keep them from being shot. This is definitely one of the news of the weird episodes!

Did you happen to read the article? He can't tip the statue up because it weighs 640 LBS, the deers skull was crushed! Are you completely insane or just clueless??

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Capricorn

Mercury retrograde in your sign will cause some friction between you and other people during coming weeks. Matters that have been bubbling away in the background will come to the boil, forcing you to do something about them. Try not to overreact, nor to create a crisis out of something that's really very minor. You should also keep a strong sense of fair play and pay attention to every little detail.
