I named my grandson's stuffed kangaroo "roadkill" (roadkill is part of life in Australia having many uses such as worm farms and under fruit trees).
Anyway the daughter and son-in-law gave me heaps for the name. The grandson would not bat an eye about these smashed up toys as he spends all TV time watching nature shows. Plenty of violence there.
