    I'll see that badger and raise you a wolverine. One that just had his paw stepped on.

    Alligator Gar...

    Maybe it ain't the meanest, but it sure looks the meanest.

    I've eaten alligator for breakfast. Seriously! Mardi Gras, 1997. ;)

    Grew up in Louisiana... I've eaten gator, snake, squirrel, deer, black bear (from NC), ostridge, deer, and anything with a shell (crawfish, raw oysters, crab, turtle, etc) . And once, without knowing ahead of time... Possum... And let me tell you... That wasn't unpleasant until after I knew...

    But never alligator gar... I heard they tasted pretty bad and weren't worth the fight and having to clean the ugly things.

    I think mudbugs/crawfish are an acquired taste.

    isn't a marmot a prairie dog? looks to be the same critter

    Praire dogs are smaller, squirrel size. This critter is cat size, we call them rock chuck in the west, some folks call them wood chucks. They are a pests and inhabit farm lands and eat the green sprouts of beans, corn, hay, grain ... anything they can in the spring....

    I like the idea of Rodents of Unusual Size, or R.O.U.S's. Personally, though, I don't think they exist.
    Ludicrous gibs!

    Ground hogs taste like venison. Rabbit is one of my favorites. I like me some bunnies:)
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks

    Wow did this thread get hijacked! lol Hey guys I think Rachel Ray has her own blog site somewhere, who knows maybe she will chime in too....:D

    Anyways I thought that a Polk Audio mascott would be something with some big ears for listening. Heres what I found....btw the hippie lookin' jackass is my fave!
    Most of them only hear how loud it sounds, and the rest of us hear everything else - :rolleyes:

    that guy looks far too happy for being eaten by that thing...
    **** i dont' think I've ever seen a pig that big before, we should give him to concelor for him to make something tasty out of it...yummy yummy...
    so as a mascot ehhh I think I would try to eat him before he could really be one....
