Head shot thread

Got this healthy female this morning, a 2025 New Years Day squirrel, maybe the big males mate?

Yup...males have hemi-penis's....I was into the exotic critter hobby but fazing that out now 👍. I knew a guy that had a 34lb Cuban Rock iguana, had red eyes, he was huge, named him Wharf....😂.
Damn that's huge! My all of my biggest iguana in terms of mass was sixteen pounds even and that's the one on my background photo, he was 5'9". I can't imagine an iguana twice that size.

LOL...yup! He lived in his back yard in a huge homemade cage with a doghouse and pig blanket to keep him warm during the winter. Was people friendly as we would feed him carrots thru the chicken wire.

Nice! It's honesty still hard to even picture an iguana that damn big, he must've been every bit of 7-7.5' long

He wasn't as long as the big male green iguanas but he was so THICK! The base of his tail was thicker than a softball! Was the largest iguana known in the exotic pet industry. Look up cuban rock iguanas 👍.

ok , no pictures but the strangest reaction to the brain shot . I had a racoon raiding my bird feeder , he would empty it every night ( holds 4 pounds of bird seed )
Last night i waited for the coon to show , yep about an hour after sunset , their he was . I had my HW77 long .22 loaded and the safety off , i waited for the coon to climb up on the railing and reach up to scrape seed out , There he was all streched out as high as he could reach . I make a little sound and he sat back down turning his head i got a perfect brain shot . This is where the scene got sort of weird . The coon stood on all 4 legs and his head sort of vibrated for a few seconds then he fell to the ground , ran about 25 feet , rolled over on his back / side and did the dance and in doing so pushed himself over the edge of the cliff . .22 wadcutter pellets usually just stop things right in their tracks .

That's WILD! Maybe the wadcutter didn't penetrate and still caused major brain damage! Or...penetrated and did what it did! Just guessing...😂👍
