We have foxes that p*ss on our newspaper and rip it to shreds! Fox p*ss smells like what I would think Skunk p*ss smells like!

We've have the same problem. Worse this year than it's ever been. At least 2 new fawns. They pretty much have their way here since we haven't had a dog for 2 years. When we had a dog around, they stayed away because they could smell him and occasionally he "exercised" them a bit too...
Worst thing is, the police shoot your dog if he is caught chasing deer. The deer have more rights than a dog.

We had a deer in our back yard about a month ago. It jumped our back fence and panicked. He tried to jump an 8 foot fence and got hung up on it. He finally got himself free and hopped back over our back fence again. Funny thing is we live right in town!
You might think that living 10 minutes from Yonge and Bloor in Toronto we get no wildlife but you'd be wrong. Fox, Coyottes some Coywolves, Raccoons of course wander the streets at night. Deer are a big issue at the airport. My eldest Airedale cornered a Raccoon last spring and was beatingthe you know what out it it when I intervened.....it died anyway. Squirrels are commonly caught and shaken up by my two Airedales.
My son tells me that there are several sightings of Bear in the Simcoe Country region this year. He also said that the other night he was patrolling with the window down and he heard a strange sound coming up from behind and beside his car, the next thing he knew a deer was trotting right beside his car then it darted in front of him. He hit the binders on the Impala and missed it.

Hey Ray, what about G 20 protesters?

We didn't see any venture that far out of the downtown area but to be sure I had baseball bats and crowbars at each door.
Pape & Eastern where the detention centre is is not that far by car, probably 10 minutes. Pape is actually one of the Main streets in our part of town, basically 3 concessions to the west of me, but we live at the top where it meets the valley and the wildlife was down near the lake, probably 5 or 6 miles away.
It was a lot of fun watching that on TV all weekend. The ones who were not captured seemed to have all gone back to where they roamed from.

We have had deer here for years, eating our grass and weeds, but today was the first time I had ever seen one attack my dog, It was chasing my small dog and stamping it's hoofs, tryin to hit my little dog. I chased the deer away but he'll be back, Time to find my slingshot. Or possibly a crossbow, HMMMM.
we used to have lots of deer in our back yard untill last year,they stopped showing up,then I found out why,the bears had moved down from the mountain.At first I thought great no more deer eating up the garden,then the bear decided he didnt like my fence and tore it down 7 times and counting,wish the deer were back!
