Waterford Airport

[Megster]

Has anyone been to Waterford Airport in CT?  I didn't even know I'd been there until I checked aerial maps, because another website has it listed as an "Abandoned Waterford Neighborhood".  My friend and I found a bunch of dead deer there, that were only there maybe a day or two, and all cut up into pieces.  We just wandered into a building there and it was when I tripped on a deer leg that we realized we had walked by three deer carcasses on our way in.  

Has anyone else found a lot of dead things?  I found a dead possum at Fort Mansfield once, but it wasn't like this...

Anyway, I posted pictures of the airport on my site.  No dead animals either.  If I had eaten yet that day I probably would have thrown up, but then my friend and I came home and watched Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and compared it to Silence of the Lambs.  Isn't it strange how Rudolph had a friend named Clarice too...

sounds like you got hunters that like to butcher deers up on site rather than carry the whole thing back

[Megster]

yeah, that's what we figured.  Still un-nerving to see a deer staring straight at you when you least expect it.  Especially when it's only its head and it's on its side.

Silence of the Reindeer

I've found many dead, dismembered animals in somewhat secluded areas that always seem to be close to urban centers.  Mostly small, wooded lots around the New Bedford-Taunton areas.  Most of the time it looks to be rejected farm product, like sheep or cattle, and I don't figure it's anything to worry about.  Often I also find animals just dead of natural causes, you know, squirrels, racoons, opposums, deer, dogs, cats, snakes, turtles, birds...  I could go on and on.

The only situation I could compare to yours was last November I visited my grandmother for about 5 days, she lives near Taunton State.  I love to walk around the city, especially along the railroad tracks, through swamps, and in woods.  Well, off to the side of the railroad tracks, I found no less than a dozen dead, dismembered deer, a couple of chicken, and some sort of canid.  Due to the decomposition and the fact that my zoological knowledge isn't very strong with mammals, I couldn't tell if it was a coyote or domestic dog.  It was cut up, I couldn't see the skull, just legs and fur that were obviously canid.  I didn't feel worried at the time and I don't really think I should have been worried, other than the chicken, there wasn't anything creepy about it.  I'd just assumed it was hunter refuse, and I'm still pretty sure that's what it was.  

They were at different spots, each holding between 3 and 6 deer, the spots weren't more than 20 feet from another, although there might have been more past the railroad tracks and into the woods.  At least one of the deer was skinned.  Some of them were in clear, plastic bags or burlap sacks.  Some were just in the open.  At the very first spot I came across, there were also two chicken, which came across to me as very odd, because the chicken appeared to be storebought.  There was also a grill about 4 feet away from the first spot.  I couldn't help but wonder if somebody had some kind of strange feast, due to the chicken and the fact that at least one of the deer was skinned, but that idea was dispelled when I came to the last spot and saw the canid.  People don't eat canid animals in the US, that's an enormous societal taboo, even if it's just a fox or wolf.  I figured maybe the grill was just garbage since people are disgusting pieces of shit and love to dump garbage in the woods or anywhere else they find convenient.

I took a couple of pictures of the dead deer just because of the curiosity factor involved, I would have taken more, but it was my last day there and my memory card was already full of pics I had taken of abandoned buildings and other such things.  I'll try to resize the pictures and upload them somewhere today, I'll post the links when I do.

Here we go...  The first pic didn't come out that great, but you can clearly see, near the middle of the picture, canid fur among the deer remains.  You can't see the canid's legs because, before I took the picture, I flipped it over to see if it's head was anywhere around.  It looks like coyote, but like I said, mammals are not my strongpoint.  The second picture is just some various deer parts.  The third picture is of the last dump spot I found, the one with the canid remains, but focuses on some carcasses going down the hill, each bag is about 6 feet from the deer/canid mass in the first picture.

I know some hunters will shoot stray dogs . . not alot of ferral dogs around here though . . I'd wager a cyote unless you get packs of strays in your area . . they scare the deer away. Not sure about the chickens, maybe to bait the cyotes?

Man, I wish I had gotten some pics of the chickens.  They seemed sort of arranged.  I'd almost think it was some sort of Satanist activity if I were some ignorant loser who actually thinks people other than Christians believe in Satan (much less worship him).  I know for a fact if I'd have brought my mother, a Christian, she'd have said it was Satanists.  "Voodoo!"  I'm tempted to embarass myself with an LOL smiley, but I'll refrain.

Once I found a dead crow in the woods.

All my friends said Satanists did it.

I think it was a ploy to get me in the sack.

Did the ploy work?  If so, I must say, I think you might be interested in this squirrel I found in the street in front of my house...  I can't say for sure, but I think it might have been the same people in black, unmarked helicopters who we all know are behind countless unexplained cattle mutilations.

I swear it's not a ploy, but I've also been told it's easier to enjoy dead squirrel inspections while topless.  I swear, I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried.

LMFAO :lol:  

[Megster]

Hahaha I love you.

P.S. The ploy didn't work.  

Wandering around the streets of West Warwick at 2 AM and running into stoned people who stole a street sign did.  

Well, kinda.

Not really.

I'm sure if I looked there might have been a dead squirrel nearby.

Well, I don't have a hacksaw, so that wouldn't work, but I know a guy who stole a street sign, and I could steal it from him.  It's not like he needs a street sign hanging around on his dresser, depreciating the value of the whole property, right?  It looks stupid there.  I'd bet it'd look real nice on your bra on the floor... uh, I mean, on the floor, by itself. Whatever, you know what I meant, I don't need to correct myself.  I can tell that you can sense my intentions are pure.

Okay, I'll let this joke die now.
