Inappropriate elk behavior
« on: August 29, 2012, 10:41:51 PM »
I've had my ground blind out for about 4 weeks now, and the elk have gone right thru it 3-4 times.    That must make it an OK spot......     8)

So, this time I went out to check the cam and the blind was dragged about 10 yards.  Interesting.

When I got home and checked the pics, I find:

PIC 1:  Elk approaching ground blind
PIC 2:  Elk knocking over ground blind
PIC 3:  Elk walking right over downed camera
pic 4:   Elk walking over downed camera (next day)

Nothing terribly inappropriate yet.....

But then things turn ugly:

PIC 1:  Elk mooning downed camera
PIC 2:  Is it just me or is the tail getting more rigid?
PIC 3:  Really?!?!?   Elk dumps on defenseless trail cam.

This slight will not go unavenged.

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

It is an awesome meadow.   The swales are just big enough to hide elk and make a guy think  there are none.

Not a shot I'd normally take, but for this cow I'll make an exception.

I've got to go wash my trail cam strap, now.
