Roadkill

I've noticed in the past 2 weeks that there have been quite a number of roadkill I can see on my way to work. This morning I decided to count and discovered that there were 5 dogs , 2 cats, 1 suspect snake and 2 unidentified carcasses (all in various stages of decay) littering the side of the 10 km from home to the office. That's quite a lot, you'd have to agree. Unusually so, even. And the dead ones are evenly spaced out in all the areas I have to pass; from Selayang to K.L (via Kuching Road), equal share of animals run'd over. Obviously roadkill happens all the time, I'm very much aware of this. It's probably normal to have maybe one or two dead fourleggers every 2 other months or so. But 10 dead animals in 10 km? That's not right.

Are Malaysian drivers getting especially retarded in the past 2 weeks? Are animals more suicidal than usual? Tag games gone wrong? Some deadly vendetta going on between the homosapiens and the other mammals/suspect reptiles? Sadistic animal population control? Skewed Pavlov reaction to shiny metal contraption on wheels hurtling down the freeway at 90kmph? What? It's a mystery, one we'd probably would never know the truth to..

Later today, on my way back, I'm gonna take pictures and put it up here. The one dead dog near the Duke Freeway is especially gruesome, with maggots and decimated brain matter and everything. Awesome.

(Of course this could be happening because of all the road lights are not working now and nights are especially dark but hey, common sense sucks. And rationality is boring)
