Elk, Wolf, and Bear Electrocution
« on: June 27, 2013, 07:43:11 AM »
This was posted by a Facebook friend and I found it quite incredible.

An Elk, a Wolf, and a Bear all meeting their fate in the same place. Apperently in Northeastern Oregon an elk was electocuted by a down powerline. The wolf and the bear came to feed on the elk and were electrocuted also.

That is crazy if it is true.  Thanks for posting.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

A while back a line came down and didn't open up the circuit, fried a couple cows in this farmers field.  Ended up killing numerous crows, and a few bald eagles who came to feed on the cows before the electric company was notified!  Strange things happen!

Not a great picture, but that looks like a sow Grizzly to me.  Haven't heard much about those being in NE Oregon.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
