Muskrat in the back yard

This morning we woke up to dogs barking, and children yelling in the back yard. Hannah came in and told us there was a squirrel behind the pool, of course we told them to leave it alone. Within minutes C came in and informed us they had just caught a muskrat.
Sure enough, they had. C (he's eight)got a golf club and backed it up into a box then Josh shut the lid. they all think they should work for animal planet. Together with C and Josh we went down to Utah Lake and released it. I think it liked that better than a backyard with two dogs. The kids had the morning of their lives.

The Release.

Cute? I guess you could call a muskrat that :) That's cool that you like the same kind of books as Jacob, and he is on Good Reads, do you do that one?

val, I'm on now. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm under The Man, not really it's just Gage. Gantrie, we released it so no one but the dogs. However they did want to keep it (well C did)Now it lievs at Utah Lake.
