Hitting a kangaroo just about writes a car off

Moose
My Dad hit a Moose a couple of years ago going to work at night, he works night shifts. It totaled the car, if it weren't for the reinforced roof for the sunroof it might have totaled him. I couldn't believe the damage that thing did to his car.

When my dad worked for SANTOS (oil and gas exploration) they wrote off a Landcuiser (70 series afaik) from hitting a kangaroo so yeah they do some serious damage (esp if you hit them at a decent speed)

Im not far from Truro. My mum goes there quite ofter.
Ever heard of a town called Camelford? Where the floods were in 2004, but not as severe as Boscastle.

I live in a city (ish) so the only critters I encounter are chavs, due to hippies claiming there in danger we are no longer allowed to hunt them
Heres a picture of a chav hunt before it was banned:
Sounds pretty inaccurate, those chavs actually look kind of cute and cuddly. As opposed to their normal look of repulsiveness and vicious, blindly furious hatred.
No they set the dogs on the chavs, they may look cute and cuddly but they can detect Burberry from 4 miles away

Out in the country here sometimes you'll come across something like this.
I've seen several of these before, never managed to run over one. They're called aramdillos. Also called roving speed bumps.
I actually did manage to hit one of these in teh road once. I Felt really bad about it... Yes, it's a turtle!

Yep, the native Australian equivalent of deer. My Dad totaled a 200 series Volvo due to a hit with one back in the day.

Haven't seen this one yet
Canadian Goose, even though none live in Canada. Seriously I have a picture of the US/Canada border with all the damn Geese hanging out on the American side. I mean I really can't blame them, the only thing over there is French fries and Gravy but then we should call it the USA freedom George W. Goose, hell yeah.
