The closest I'll probably ever get to hunting in Africa...

As a kid our neighbor across the road had Guineas, little traffic on our gravel road but they never got hit by passing cars. Several years back Becky wanted Guineas. I built a Guinea coop and we bought 2 males and 4 females. The eggs are excellent. Our dusk to dawn security light came on early one night because of a storm and they failed to go back to the coop roosting under the security light. They must be pretty tasty to Owls, one took a male that night. Lost four more over the next three weeks. One little crafty female lasted almost two months. She never roost in the same tree twice. She finally got hit one morning as soon as she landed.
