How old is that thing Jackalope?  That's an awesome goat,  Congrats!


He’s 4.5. I was hoping for older but I’m still thrilled.

Just finished up with the biologists at the WDFW office in La Conner. Once you kill a goat you have 10 days to have it checked by a WDFW biologist. They take measurements in centimeters, age, dna sample and location of the kill. I had gps coordinates so that was a bonus.

No. I don’t have room for that or the pocketbook for it. Think we’re going with a wall pedestal with some rocks and stuff.
How’s about you?

Conclusion: yep, it's a goat.

Great story, the write up was awesome. Really looking forward to when I can go on my own goat hunt but was nice to read along with yours as I wait. Congrats again on a great hunt and great goat.
