I think I saw something similar back when I was a kid.When I was in high school, our nearest nearest neighbor was about 2 miles away. We lived just off the main road, with a circle drive. I was out pumping water, when I saw this weird creature coming up our driveway. It was black, and its head was huge...it kept nodding its head up and down in an exaggerated manner, and all I could think of was an anteater. It scared me; I thought it might be rabid.
The rifle was just inside the door, so I grabbed it and shot the varmint before it could get up to the house. I let it lay for a few minutes; then walked up to examine it. I couldn't believe my eyes. It was a skunk, and it had its head stuck in what looked like a pint mayonnaise jar. I figured he was getting a treat and got his head stuck.
No, wait; it was Winnie the Pooh!
Did he spray when you shot him?
Here's where a bear really did get his head stuck.
