Meat is as addictive as heroin or tobacco. I truly believe some folks could not give it up...it is too powerful a draw. Like the dog that gets into the chicken coop....you either have to build a stronger chicken coop, get rid of the chickens or shoot the dog. I once worked on a fruit farm in Northeast, Pa. Large white German shepard would follow the tractor (sometimes jumping up on the flatbed behind), running from one end of the farm to the other. Liked to stand out on the freeway and try to bite car tires as the passed at high speed. Well, dog also liked to hunt...deer. Never had much luck until one day he did grab a deer by the hind quarters. In Pa, then, it was against the law to keep a dog like that and the farmer shot him. No worry, WR, I won't shoot you! :^) len
