Couestracker Report post Posted July 18, 2014 After 20 years of camping around Apache Lake, we saw our first-ever coatamundi on the shore right across from our camp at 5 in the afternoon. Sorry, no pictures. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjhunt2 Report post Posted July 18, 2014 Three years ago while hunting Apache Lake I couldn't believe my eyes. How in the world did they get all the way to Apache Lake? They are on both sides of the lake now. Ringtails have been there for years. I have a good ringtail story I will share around a campfire. TJ 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
