We often play Bogart and Bacall and have seen rats :22yikes: on the courses several times this year. I have seen one or two around the area before but nothing like this year. The rats do keep me from looking in the bushes for my ball :mad: I gladly let them keep it. Not sure what the reason for the increase is this year. We did see a dead rat by the pond on Bogart the last time we played don't know if the death was from natural causes or some sort of pest control. :icon_twisted:

I've seen two flattened rats on the golf cart path by turtle mound executive course. Not very big but very flat.

While walking dog over in Pennecamp area the other night we met up with an armadillo. First live one I've seen. In Arkansas all I saw were the ones killed along side roads. He scurried away from us and I kept dog away from him. I am sure he was out digging up bugs for his dinner.
