weird question about roadkill..when you see it...?

I know its horrible and no one likes to see it but do you feel differently toward different animals. Well for me its like when I see a armadillo or say a squirrel I feel sad for them but when its a raccoon, deer or even skunk it makes me even more sad. I know I shouldn't and i feel badly that I feel more for the "cute" ones. Anyways I said it was weird,lol.

Update:

Thanks for the answers..and to be more specific I feel sad for all of them....

    I know where you are! I am a little different in the fact that I would swerve away from any animal in the road but will shoot,hunt with lurchers ,ferrets and fish for food. I respect animals but I do like to eat them also. May seem a bit wierd but that is how I am. p.s. I cant abide animal cruelty.

    It just makes me feel hungry LOL. Why the prejudice against different animals? I suppose we have the same in any country. If I see a bird dead it probably depends on what kind of bird...I think that the pretty ones get more of a vote because us humans are so shallow. If I saw a dead koala I would be devastated...a kangaroo, the same, no...I think that it really wouldnt matter what type of animal it is I would feel some sadness but its life unfortunately.

    I think it just shows that you have a sensitive heart. Not too many people care about things like that anymore. So it is nice to know that there are still caring people out there.
