All kinds of questions here.
Did it really weigh that much? who actually weighed it?
He shot it with a 38? I highly doubt that unless it was almost dead already.
What was it doing in his Front Yard and why did it just stand there and let him shoot it?
I was out hunting last night and a Black cat came up to me and I immediately noticed it had a long tail. I scratched it on the head and begged it not to eat me, then made my escape, after it went to sleep.
