I'm sure the majoraty of the herpers reading your post thought this but did you stop for the head on the roadkill?

>>Yea, and if my friend was not with me I am not sure anyone who did not know me would believe it. A couple years ago, my parents retired north of here to a newly developed community in Port Saint Lucie. My Mom said she was seeing a panther around her home and around the other homes in their neighborhood. Many people (including myself) told her she was not seeing what she was seeing on her 5 AM morning strolls. Well, she finally was able to confirm the sighting with a friend and my father. I hate to think about it, but that panther I saw dead on I-95 a month later was 10 miles from her home and I think it may have been the same panther. It was actually living east of the highway before its habitat was plowed over.
