This eagle was caught in the power lines. We found him before the coyotes. He is a immature Golden.

A short eared owl found it the ditch one cold winter day.

This bear didn't come from the Big Muddy . My SIL shot him at 12 yards with a bow. I jokingly say I traded my bear for his. Really my oldest is really sweet. :D

That is a big coyote, did you weigh him?


Poor lil' animals :shock: I will have you know I shot those coyotes in my underwear :lol: :lol:

I didn't weigh him but usually carry in a coyote with one hand, he took two then I dropped him and went and got the toboggan. The taxidermist was impressed with him.
 
That coyote looks big enough to tackle a moose! :wink: Glad ya thumped him as "coyote's" that big could eat a bunch of rabbits! Nice collection of dead animals.
 
I put a wolf that became dead here on the scale back a few years, he weighed 142 lbs and was 39 inches at the shoulder. Unfortunately he was rubbed pretty bad and we threw him on a brushpile and barbequed him.
A neighbor got the biggest wolf I've ever seen back about 1980, in rug form he was 9' 3" long. I think a fellow in Williams Lake has it now.
 
Between the timber, the cold, your tendency to stay close to the couch and the stuff with sharp teeth, how in the wide wide world of sports do ya'll bring in a calf crop at all! :???: :P :wink:

He's big but nothing like some big wolves. Get them spread out in a rug at it's pretty scary. :shock: :o

How on earth did they get into your underweare? :shock:

I was eyeing up that comment this morning, but I was good and didn't say anything. :lol: :lol:
 
We built a new house in 2000. Our bedroom is up stairs in the loft with a door out to a small deck. If I lost a calf i would place out behind the house and get up in the morning pull on the long underwear and crack the door open and plug a coyote. Therefore I shot them in my underwear. 8)

Which on a cold morning is much better then the other option. :shock:
 
Quick kinda related story- Drew a spring turkey tag 10 years ago in Southwestern Utah. My wife and I went down after work on a Friday and got to the mountain after dark. We pitched our tent and crashed. One small problem was we forgot the alarm clock and I joking told my wife i'd hear a turkey gobble before light and get up! Well i woke up every hour making sure it was still dark. Finally i drifted off to dream of longbearded gobblers. In my dream one just kept gobbling, til i realized it was really a turkey. I woke up my wife and we could hear the turkey getting closer and closer. Turned out he was walking up the road. I grabbed my shotgun, loaded a shell in and crept out'a the tent in my underware just in time to see a startled gobbler hightailing it back down the canyon. I never got a shot off but i sure spooked him! He probably wondered why a round blue rock had a very white legged messed up hair guy 1/2 naked coming out of it! :shock: :D :wink:
 
About dec 1965 I got up to go to the bathroom and looked out the kitchen window ( it was very warm and the window was up just a screen ) and happened to see a large buck in the front yard. I slipped back to my room got a shotgun and shot the deer thru the screen.

You should have seen my step dad come out of his room as a shotgun makes a lot of noise in the kitchen!

After everything calmed down we cleaned the buck and went about our chores. The cattle got fed a little late that morning.
 
At our old place, about 5km from where we live now, I can remember dad sitting in the bathroom shooting hte magpies off the slop piles when I was a little kid and mom wasn't home. One day she found out and he never did it again.
