Wired Pronghorn
« on: March 19, 2009, 06:31:27 PM »

Found this guy while on one of my Eastern Montana Pronghorn hunts. Actually, I was stalking a sage grouse at the time.....
Not a pleasant way to go! About 10 lbs. of bailing wire.

Cool find...but you're right. I'm pretty certain that the death was not slow and no less painless.

I agree cool find, but a sad way to go.

Cool pic and good find. That's actually a pretty big lope. Would be cool to find his caps.
May the morning silence be broken with the wisp of vanes trailing blades to their mark.

Cool pic! I'm pretty sure antelope horns are made of keratin, but not certain so they probably didn't last too long.

Coyotes and domestic dogs both love to eat them.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

ouch.  Looks like the coyotes are setting snares now...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
