Possum

I love how the eyes sometimes look like cartoon crosses...

And how the asshole has become an outie...

How I Do It

Wombat Alley

Every dead wombat along this stretch of road near Fitzgerald Falls featured a few parts from the offending vehicle. A small act of vengeance.

African Skulls

10 days traipsing around the Black Rhino Intensive Protection Zone in Hwange National Park allowed me to inspect carcasses of exotic animals. My guides thought I was a ittle kooky having my picture taken with every skull we found, but I wanted to take the skulls home with me!


Cape Buffalo

Impala

Warthog - good eatin' too.



Baboon

Elephant

The day before my arrival, an elephant had an unfortunate collision with a train. The train was wrecked, but every yard was filled with strips of elephant meat drying in the sun. At the auto repair shop, I saw a man leaning over the stump of an elephant leg with a chainsaw. He looked up and smiled as I rode past.

Gifts on My Door Step

Technically, this is 'cat kill', not road kill. High marks for presentation

Guest Contribution

I know I said I wasn't going to pretend this blog had anything to do with art, but I love the halo effect created by the patterns in the concrete coupled with the blurry blackberry photo of this pigeon that was obliterated in a parking garage in San Jose.

Mexican Beach Kill

Roadways aren't the only place to find excellent specimens of animals you would otherwise seldom encounter. Mexico's besches offer a bounty of exotic carcasses.
