We have a gopher.

..

So much for the greater metropolis of Los Angeles being a "sterile environment." I swear, I have more wildlife in my backyard than in the whole of Griffith Park.

The list (and not inclusive, I find new stuff every day) grows - raccoons, possums, rats (oh ghad the rats - so cute so plentiful so OHNOES), mice, squirrels...and now? Gophers. Maybe ground squirrels. Doubtful. Dunno.

Big hole. Lots of nicely turned earth. Right in the front of the mailbox.

I have two people to call. My yard man and Terminix. Poor gopher. Your life is going to get *very* interesting shortly.

Our last house had skunks. They dug holes all over our front yard but ONLY our yard.

we had possums, feral cats, wolves, deer, all sorts of stuff wander down from the hills and cruise our neighborhood where I grew up in Los Angeles.

all sorts of furry animals in search of the open space that was turned into housing.
