Yes, it CAN happen in small rural towns, even in the great Pineywoods of East Texas. I imagine there have been others more recently, but I remember this one specifically.

I did not know of any such happenings in east Texas but there definitely is no shortage of tailless biped squirrels about. Thank you for that post, Daingerfield is smaller than Rusk. We're Methodists; even so, it can happen anywhere. :smilelol5:

If I lived in or near a truly small town in rural Texas - as I hope to some day - it would be different, and my OC practices would likely be different.
