A catchy title, Karen, with some great lines that play off each other well.

we live on the other side of a county road--a road that armadillos frequent...and they are frequently roadkill, run over by large farm equipment.

I always feel sad for the animals.

When I used to go to work at 03.00 in the morning and would slow down when I saw any wildlife but as I sped up, clunk, they'd run out in front of me. It would ruin my day. Tom

... I see it often ... animals move closer to the roads to lick salt off the frozen asphalt ... "Snow kill or road kill" ... true, Karen :) - hugs
