I think this should have been posted in the 'coolest trail cam pics' topic... Is that a Coues? Smart lion for hunting over a feeder, not so smart for getting caught on camera... I'd bet that is his new favorite spot, go get him!

You pick the date and time! Friday 3/27 ~10:30 AM is the winner!

Well, you guys are clogging the AZGFD hotline I see....

BOOOOO!!!

I'm gonna say Coues'n'Sheep wins for "WHAT DID YOU DRAW????"

Which will come first?

I think you should go for another, slower, walk and track down the other side while the hoof prints are still in the ground!

His belly looked like it was full of something...

RR, Have you ever played around with HDR software? It is pretty amazing. You've got the eye for photography, you might really like HDR photos... T

Here's my pappy rocking the Stihl 086 into a sequoia log back in the day.... Not many folks can say they've put a chainsaw into a Giant Sequoia! 3,000 years old, over 100 fire scars... pretty awesome.

Good saws are expensive, it amazes me how much they get for them on ebay even after they have a hundred or more tanks put through them. We bought a STIHL MS 441 this year for my research, its honestly the best saw I've ever used at its class. I use mostly STIHLs (036, 044, 440, 460, 066, 660, 088) and a few huskys... got nothing for or against either brand, I just know more about STIHLs (since I've had to strip them down to the powerhead and put them back together again many times). I thought the 441 looked kind of fragile at first, but after using it, its awesome. The anti vibration shock absorbers are choice, and the power curve is top notch. Any pro-series saw you're going to have to become an aficionado with tuning, sharpening, etc, but once a saw is dialed in for your elevation it can kick some serious butt. One more thing about the 441, you don't have to break it in!! Most new pro-saws you've gotta put 10-15 tanks through them before you start ramping up the power to full throttle to make sure the piston is seated, the 441 comes broke in because of its new emissions standards.

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/i1oXo...feat=directlink Took this two years ago in 6a during muzzleloader elk. We'd walked up the mountain, then we heard this a-hole role up. He got off next to, then climbed up a juniper tree, hung off the side with one hand, holding his binos to his eyes with the other, looked around, climbed down, radioed his buddy that there were no elk, got back on the quad (at which point I'd picked up my jaw from the ground and got the camera out to start filming), and rode down the mountain... Good thing he hadn't spotted any of the several hundred elk we'd already seen that morning. Idiot. T

Zoinks!

I hadn't really thought about this till now (probably still in shock): *cross your fingers* a wet year again this spring and summer, and that bull could go HUGE!

are you cheating some how? I think the bull just decided he'd rather give you his horns than suffer you dogging him for the next two weeks...

I think wetmule is right about incentives and tax policy for American companies… .270, my issue with CEO’s is how much more they make than their workers, in 2005 CEO’s made on average 262 times more than their average worker. In 1965 CEO’s made 24:1. A CEO makes more in one day than one of his workers makes in a year! What about all of the vice president’s, and other upper level management salaries? Surely they’ve increased too along with CEO’s, yet laborer wages have been steadily decreasing. http://www.epi.org/economic_snapshots/entr...shots_20060621/ Why can’t we slap a tax on the foreign made imports to a level that puts them on the same price setting as comparable American made goods? Of course other countries are going to cry about it (I’ll bet a lot of Americans are going to cry about it – NO MORE CHEAP STUFF??!!), but the way that all of their economies tanked following our collapse shows that THEY ARE THE TAIL and AMERICA IS THE DOG. Its time we wag that tail, wag it hard! So what if they threaten to not buy our products? Or threaten to stop shipping us their cheap plastic stuff? As America goes, so goes their world. Force them to match us dollar for yuan or dollar for peso.

From what I've been reading, the seeds of today's disasters were laid down over 30 years ago; the average taxpayer made more in 1973 ($33,000 adjusted) than they do today ($29,000). Over that time the wealth has already been 'redistributed' toward the top 1%. These are not people who 'own small business,' they are CEO's, actors and actresses, and (surprise) politicians. The truly wealthy were in control, and they got there by duping conservatives with things like 'trickle down' economics that basically fed more money to the elite. Its not the stock market that these people (not all Americans today) are reinvesting in: they are buying land, real estate, anything with real worth that only they can afford to buy since there is no credit for the middle class. Should the American Government tax these people because they are smart and know how to move currency to the most profitable part of the economy? I don't know, but I think anyone who loses their job over the next couple of years and can't find a new one might wonder what happened to their American dream. What if the only solution is Government? Its been shown to be the only solution to problems of natural resource exploitation (see Hardin, Tragedy of the Commons, 1968). What if raising taxes on the rich will help to save America? What if there is nothing that can save America? Do we shrivel up, grab our guns and fight amongst our selves, squabbling over the scraps?

Can any of you actually explain the differences and relationship between socialism and communism off the top of your heads? I know I can't, but I do know its not a BIG RED CONSPIRACY threatening to destroy us all, we've already gone through this, instead of a drunk Joe McCarthy you've now got a big sweaty Rush Limbaugh. I also know that this country's (and the rest of the world's for that matter) economy is headed into the toilet, from far more than any political party's recent actions. The problems in this country are so much deeper than the mud slinging you guys are throwing around. Here's a little socialist thought experiment for you though since you guys are always complaining about how liberals don't 'make anything with their own hands': Labor theories of value (LTV) – invented by Benjamin Franklin, perhaps the most quintessential American “are economic theories of value according to which the values of commodities are related to the labor needed to produce them.” The average Chinese laborer costs his employer $0.64/hour ($2.96 adjusted to American buying power); the average Mexican: $2.48 (adjusted - is even less than the Chinese), the average American: $21.11. What is the relative difference in one man’s labor cost and another’s just because they live on opposite sides of the Pacific? This major difference in LTV is what is crushing the American economy today. You all can build the buildings and stores that we manage and sell our cheap stuff in, but you can’t make the stuff (because we’ve outsourced it). Its because of this that all of the catastrophe's unfolding before our eyes are happening today. The cash we've sent abroad for cheap stuff, the oil its all made of, and run off of is in the hands of other countries. Those countries are investing in their own infrastructure, but foolishly putting their savings in our Banks... Opps! There goes the housing bubble, there goes the credit market! There goes everyone's equity and savings! For years the US economy has been leaking the ABILITY TO PRODUCE THINGS, the very basis that CREDIT is built upon, and guess what? Our account is empty! The credit market will tumble until it bottoms out with our ability to produce... Its time for America to start making things again!

I guess I'll be seeing all of you ranters at the memorial service tomorrow: http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/news/pr...03-04-2009.html right? The CBD has already issued a couple of these PR's trying to push for a 'Jaguar Recovery Plan' and a look into the death. http://www.biologicaldiversity.org/news/pr...3-04-2009b.html
