Alf was spray painted on the wall. Called in a snowplow to clear roadkill. Hunting them like rabbits. About an hour away from me. They had fish nets trying to catch them. Jeepers! Wonder what alf stands for?
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

vast majority will be dead by Saturday road kill/starvation/dehydration...I don't believe a mink farmer would set his own mink free......they just "pelt out" also ranch mink fur in the wild goes bad really fast

Thanks, I was wondering.
I would hope, if it was ranch financial troubles, that they would sell off their inventory, and get the most they could before they went out of business. Who would buy them? They would just be into more money prepping them for sale.

They would just be into more money prepping them for sale. Ok, I see that, just wondering what they should have done, if it wasn't some anti group that let them loose. I suppose the question is, what SHOULD a company do in that situation ?

They cut a 3x5 foot hole in the wall. A lot of the white mink were painted red. This morning they said about 10000 were unaccounted for. I talked with the county sheriff and the neighboring sheriff today. They even had some law enforcement skinning.
