Southern Scene: Roadkill

Meda White

*Warning: This post contains images of roadkill.*

This is a common occurrence where I reside. In one week’s time, I found two dead animals on the roadside in my neighborhood. The first, Mr. RIP Armadillo, attracted flies and the attention of neighborhood dogs for five or six days. I kept Lily White away from the corpse because these critters can carry leprosy.

In the days following this sighting, every stick I saw wiggled and made me think a snake was coming after me.

Is roadkill something you see often in your neck of the woods?
