Inspired by some comments in this thread, what’s been under your tires recently?
I think we should have three categories:
[ol]
[li]definite[/li][li]possible[/li][li]randomly dead critter seen by side of road[/li][/ol]
I can only manage 1 in category 1 - alligator :eek:
In category 2 my only claim to fame is a skunk (skillfully avoided on my second ever driving lesson)
In category a partial list would be
[ul]
[li]deer[/li][li]skunk[/li][li]armadillo[/li][li]coyote[/li][li]snake[/li][li]crow (roadkill revenge??)[/li][li]possum[/li][/ul]
I’m sure other dopers can come up with a more comprehensive cadaver list.
I think we might feel a little better if we stuck to wild critters. Tales of squahed kitties and/or hobos are best left where you found them 
Not under the tires, but I hit a bird while driving 75mph under a highway overpass once. It must have swooped down at just the wrong moment and I had just a quick glimpse of something small, winged and feathery at the upper corner of my windshield as it got sucked into my slipstream. I wasn’t even sure I’d hit it-until we pulled over for a rest stop a little while later. There was a grungy smear across the top of the truck over the driver side door. It wasn’t even…bloody or anything, just smudgy.
My boyfriend still occasionally calls me the Pigeonator, tha insensitive bastart.
I had a weird bird day just this morning. No less than three daredevils committed avian suicide by dashing the wrong way - right in front of or under my truck. I’ve hit birds before, but never three in one day.
I always look at roadkill, trying to identify it. The weirdest things I’ve seen were what I thought was an armadillo (in Central California!), and a great big pig. Unfortunately, I was working for Animal Control when I found the pig, and I had to dispose of it. Yeah, that was fun.
