Visitor anguishes after ‘accident’ 
Says “coulda been someones pet”
Aaron Thom of Sproat Lake is shattered after hitting the animal. “I couldn’t believe how fast these things travel. one minute I was driving along and the next the poor little fellow was on my hood.”
“I just hope that there’s no little child searching anxiously for their pet.” Thom said.
Experts say these cuddly little creatures can often be seen wandering the streets of Hornby. Their advice?  Keep your eyes on the road, there is no excuse for this kind of tragedy.
