HRGH hrgh hi plurk i need to talk about wild animals that are living in my backyard that I found out about today. (cw: animal death, but of natural causes?? and handling them???) LAYS HERE I AM SORRY THAT I AM SO AWKWARD
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
OK SO WE HAVE GUYS THAT COME MOW OUR LAWN
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and my window from the bedroom looks out on the backyard. it smol.
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
the guy is pushing his lawnmower and he stops and jams his fucking hand into gods green heckin earth
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and...nothing. and i'm squinting because it looks suspicious as hell
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
for a second it looked like he was burying something and??? idk. i was curious.
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
i walk outside and find this little hole that his whole fist disappeared into
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and it's filled with baby bunnies
Echo
Oh. Oh no.
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
now, when i say this guy jammed his hand in there, it was really just a deep hole. he did not punch the baby bunnies.
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
i ran inside to grab some gloves and pulled out the two on top. and they didn't have heartbeats
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and that was really sad, and I was trying to figure out what I need to do
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
because i don't want to just leave the corpses there
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
they're baby bunnies and i am just...having some emotions because they're so small
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
when
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
there is movement from beneath the two that i moved
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
one of the babies is alive
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
VERY alive. I touched it and it was like "woAH BITCH"
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
didn't bite but I definitely screamed
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
the one that was alive was tucked in
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and i don't know how deep the hole goes
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
i text bun to see if he's busy and he is-- he doesn't actually call me until about 10 minutes ago (I texted him about an hour and a half ago)
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and I explained what happened, and what the internet recommended (which is to leave them alone) and he says "Oh, well, take care of the bodies."
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
me: ??????????????????????????
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
SEVERAL FACTORS THAT ARE QUESTIONABLE HERE BUT
⭐𝓙𝓲𝓻𝓸𝔁𝔂⭐
Oh jeez....
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
idk. the one that was alive was hidden behind the bodies of the ones that weren't and 
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
IDK HOW NATURE WORKS
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
i asked him what he meant by 'take care of' and he said "just light them on fire?"
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
me: ???????????????????????????????????

мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк

i just. i was really upset about it and was like "I AM NOT DOING IT. I AM NOT GOING TO DO WHAT YOU ARE SAYING."
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
nd he was like "FINE THEY'LL JUST DECOMPOSE AND SMELL BAD"
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
YEETS BUN OUT A DAMN WINDOW
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк

CIRCLE OF LIFE
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
BUT....IS THAT GOING TO DISTURB THE NEST
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
that is what i'm concerned about. I don't know how many are in there and I'm not going to ruin the nest to find out.
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
well no I think you should bury them somewhere else if possible
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
yeah....yeah. i just need to find a good spot. maybe i'll take them to the trail not too far from the house.
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
idk. y'all, i'm a little mortified.
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
if they were alive I would leave them be, but since a few of them are dead I would suggest calling animal control
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
tell them you don't know how many more are down there and you don't want to disturb the nest to find out, they'll probably take care of it
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
Your kids or dog found a nest of baby bunnies. Now w...
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
ok i called animal control....which for some reason i didn't think of previously???? so TY KAIYA
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
she said to get rid of the dead ones and let the other ones have a chance
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
and i asked her what she thought and she said to just put them in a baggy and toss them in the garbage...... and i am just. head 2 desk
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
yeah it's a little cold but it's that or burying them elsewhere
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
yeah exactly
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
yeah....
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
ok. 8C well, I'm gonna do that.
★ тяу-нαя∂уи
pats u
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
it's okay Squish, you did what you could
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
there could have been any number of reasons why the kits died-- sometimes life just be like that :c
Echo
Aw, poor little guys, sorry you saw that. But hey, you're helping out the survivor, so there's that.
Echo
...also how did your husband immediately jump to "Viking funeral for bunnies" as the only alternative to just letting them rot openly?
Echo
Because that raises some questions about his train of thought.
мєя¢ωιтнαPlυяк
sounds like he probably didn't think past "they'll start to smell"
ɴeᴄʀoᴅaɴᴄeʀ ღ
update: there were 3 dead ones, and 2 that were alive. 
i tried to fold over the hole with the grass that was there.
