    CA fatal lion attack

    Anyone who’s ever tried to give a 12 lb. cat a pill will recognize what a feat this is. I heard this one weighed about 75 lbs. edit How to give a cat a pill: Pick up cat and cradle it in the crook of your left arm as if holding a baby. Position right forefinger and thumb on either side of...

    CA fatal lion attack

    When you read the family’s description of the attack it sounds like the older brother saved the younger one‘s life by beating on the cat and paid for it with his own. No greater love. RIP and respect.

    CA fatal lion attack

    I accidentally liked your post and couldn’t figure out how to un-like it. You think all Californians aren’t human and deserve to die. That says a lot more about you and the level of your intellect than it does about Californians. You would have made a great Nazi.

    CA fatal lion attack

    CDFW euthanized ( shot ?) the cat last night. I’m sure the LEOs who hazed the cat away did not know the victim was dead, and were just being careful. https://www.kcra.com/article/el-dorado-county-deadly-mountain-lion-attack/60286108

    Kid on an Extended Hunt

    Best rule of thumb with kids. It’s ok to push their patience and endurance a little otherwise they may never develop either. But it requires tact, diplomacy, etc to figure out when it’s time to quit pushing them and take a break. My nephew first backpack hunting trip, we hunted hard for a...

    Best moose meat hauling frame pack?

    I have a mystery ranch metcalf now. It’s quite comfy with 80 lbs. OTOH I’m 66 years old and 80 lbs is 80 lbs.

    Best moose meat hauling frame pack?

    I had the alps commander and carried it for about three years, backpacking and hunting. With a 40 lb load it was comfy enough to carry all day. 50 lbs … 6-7 miles and it was starting to pinch. 1/2 a boned mule deer and my gear….(about 80 lbs) 1 mile starting to hurt, 2 miles oh god this...

    Creepy experiences in the backcountry

    I had the same experience on the yak river in Montana about 45 years ago. I’ve heard that the military has extremely powerful strobe lights mounted to planes. This seems like a possible explanation. I didn’t hear a plane or any kind of engine. As William Shatner would say, it remains a mystery!

    Desert Hailstorm

    Make sure to include a very tall guy who likes to wear foil hats in your group. When the shit starts, stay at least 100 yards from him. Also bring a slow fat guy that you can out run in case predators show up. Serious answer, try to find a depression that’s mid slope, obviously not on the...

    One leg shorter than the other

    For $500 I’ll add 3/8 of an inch to your femur. How do I do it so cheap? Jack Daniel’s… I know I have some bone and staples around here somewhere? On a serious note I had terrible pain in both feet and I tried all kinds of off the shelf inserts for about a year. Got to the point where I...

    @Nickofthewoods owes me money

    Under what circumstances does a person I don’t know owe me money? BTW, nickofthe woods does not owe me money, and for the record. I’m glad he’s OK. He’s pretty entertaining.
