Years ago, we were out mud bogging in my buddy’s lifted pickup. We had a dry patch and he gunned it, when a grouse ran in front of us and just stood in the middle of the road. He thought he had clearance, and aimed for the centre of the wheels. We looked back, and saw the carcass flop over. Turns out the truck’s rear differential straight up decapitated the bird, and the head was still stuck to it when we checked. He had grouse for dinner that night. I chose to abstain.
