They Are KILLERS

Lily and Teddy have turned into killers. Don't be fooled by the innocent appearance of these two ruffians.

Sweet, innocent Lily?

Calm, Happy, Loving Teddy?

Don't let those sweet, innocent looking faces fool you. Inside beats the hearts of natural born killers. Just ask this guy.

One minute you're down in your burrow looking for a breakfast of grubs. Next thing you know some crazy bitch has you in her mouth, dragged you up into blinding sunlight and is jumping on you and tossing you around like a rag doll. Note Lily's ears flying outward as she is caught in mid strike.

Teddy joins in on the action. As Lily rolls him back out of the hole Teddy grabs him and takes him out in the yard making escape from death impossible.

Teddy watches as Lily uses her paws to tenderize Mr. Mole.

The current score is Teddy and Lily 3, Moles lots of tunnels but 0.

Teddy and Lily have caught on that when I grab my camera and go to the door there is something in the yard that I want to capture on camera. This was my target last night.

It is a young fawn grazing behind their pen. I took this one picture then they started barking and jumping at the door.

If you look closely you will note there are two fawns running away. I didn't see the other one until the killers started barking and scared them off. They are probably the pair that has been hanging around all summer.

So, Lily and Teddy, sweet and innocent? Maybe if you walk on two legs. If you are on four you had better watch out.

  1. Nature and instinct isn't always pleasant. Life feeds on life; it's the way of things. Great NatGeo pics today. Enjoyed your post.
