I have no other explanation other than I must have run over a rabbit while brush hogging. This is what is weird though...
First, I brush hog my walking paths in the back quite low and have a full skirt/deck around my Rhino rotary cutter, rails dragging. How did this rabbit manage to get thrown a scant foot from the path I had just cut... sideways?
Second, the rabbit was about 30 feet from where I turned around and was headed back down the way I had just come. It was laying in the area I was about to chop. It was covered already by about a dozen yellow jackets and two dozen flies of various sizes. How quick do the scavengers move in? I wasn't gone but maybe 40 seconds or so and it was a windy day in the low sixties. I didn't even notice any bugs out until I saw the rabbit.
Third, everything was just a little too tidy looking. Has anyone here ever ran over something living while hogging? I would have thought the, well...
... I mean, don't you think the parts would have been scattered by the blade? Especially if they bounced off the inside of the deck area...
Anyway, with the miracle of electronics... yes, I snapped a pic with my cell phone
I figured I would give this thread a little time and see how the yays v nays count up. The pic is pretty graphic. It sure is weird though.
And aliens did cross my mind, but I figured they would have carved up more than just one measly rabbit
