The damned marmot has eaten ALL of my lettuce. The marmot also appears to have three offspring, who are doubtless not guiltless in the disappearance of my lettuce.

There will be inhumane relocation procedures as soon as I can figure out how to do it. Tomorrow [livejournal.com profile] moonandtree and I will be netting the rest of the garden.

Did I mention that ALL THE LETTUCE IS GONE?

ARGH!

you gotta talk to my dad the next time you're over. he's got a long-standing vendetta against the marmot clans that inhabit our block. them, and the skunks.

There are marmots in Canada? OH, ok, I googled, those are groundhogs. Still, marmots? Bonus points for use of that word. Alas, I am unable to ship any lettuce to you at this point in time.

Marmots are good eating if you skim the fat off first, and I wonder what the marmot equivalent of veal is called? A .22 would be ideal were it not for your licensing status and location, but maybe a crossbow?

Nearly killed one of them though...

I've always had good luck putting lettuce in pots. I used to get bunnies eating it when I put it in the ground.
