non humorous comment:

yeah.. think about that.

When I was trapping squirrels, the peanutbutter was always still in the trap.... meaning the trapped squirrel knew it was fucked and eating the peanut butter was no longer a priority.

With the moustraps...i noticed that the peanutbutter was always gone. I thought....hmmm....i wonder if the mouse was still clinging to life, and some how stil ate the peanut butter. .....and then one night, I checked the trap and there was a dead mouse, and the peanut butter was all gone.... so I reset the trap, and put it back....and then 20 minutes later heard it spring. this time the peanut butter was stil there, and i came to the grim conclusion that this last mouse i caught had climbed over the dead body of the previous mouse and ate the peanut butter from the previous set. ew.
