I saw plenty in June...alive and dead...wait til these little rascals start showing up unannounced at the 10 thousand dollar a week Villas......the you know what is going to hit the fan big time ......
all I have to say in my best Robert Shaw "Jaws" voice is this:
"we need bigger cats"
I think what the island needs is very intense and highly trained German Shepherds, from working lines.
That would take care of the "mouse problem", not to mention the "Point Milou problem." And those wild agave-consuming goats would be nicely herded!
I am trying to convince Vickie that I am the perfect man to start such an operation. I would be happy to move the family down there to breed and train and I think my current GSD would be very happy with the "breeding" task.
So far, Vickie's not buying into it.

Fred enjoys watching animals kill and eat other animals. PM him for his "cheep-cheep" video...I'm not sure he'll post it here anymore...

Oh Great! Now not only do we have airlines that are raping us, We have critters taking over the villas! I really love this island with a passion, but there seems to be alot of reasons to ponder my next visit. don't get me wrong the rat thing is not the back breaker. It's airfare, car rental, villa rental, meals,
Oh who am I kidding, I'am about to book the third week of April :)

awesome video !
I gotta be honest, when you first posted about this when it happened I thought maybe ol'Lampchop had a little bit of an overactive imagination,guess I was wrong. <G>
Hey, I took a picture of a tortoise eating a Mango in Vitet in June which is pretty cool, although not as impressive as the Hawk eating an Iguana video.
I'll post it if I can figure out how to put a pic on here (never learned)

i captured video of a hawk eating an iguana as we were touring around vitet. the iguana had been crossing the road when the hawk scooped down and snatched it up. too bad i didn't have the camera rolling sooner.
disclaimer: it is NOT professional quality video!!

thanks, creggers. the really cool part was when, out of nowhere, this hawk came flying up right smack in front of our jeep while we were traveling at about 30 mph and proceeded to fly mere inches from the ground about 3 feet in front of us (as if we were chasing it) with this iguana in it's claws until it lighted on the rocks where i started shooting the video. obviously, i'm not a very good videographer, but it captures the essence of nature.
vitet has cornered the market on national geographic moments, i guess.
