If you're talking about the pistol, with a 22 pellet going about 450 fps.... Smallish birds, rats... I wouldn't shoot a rabbit or stray cat, probably more likely to maim it. Perfect head shot on a turkey should do it in though. But I don't advise that either...

If you're talking about the John Deere, thats a substantially larger machine, you could probably roll down a pretty large animal if you got it cornered somewhere.

LOL! The animal would have to be quite a bit larger so that it couldn't just scoot out under the Deere.
