Close enough to raise my hackles.
« on: June 29, 2021, 05:05:39 PM »
Had a close one this morning, and no weapon.  Early this morning cleaning a little brush on property line.  I think he was trying to flush me.  Didn't see it but sounded too close for comfort.  Several howls over next 30 minutes after I vacated to a safer location.

Be happy with BF if he would keep the wolves at bay.

Pretty simmilar to encounters I've had so far, bit of noise in the brush, circling in my wind, maybe a few chirpy barks, huffing a bit,  but don't show themselves or come in for a direct  confrontation.

Now, if there's fresh meat or pups involved...all bets are off!

I thought those were your pets.  You posted signs saying "Beware of dogs"

Probably assessed you and decided you would be too tough and not enough fat to make it worthwhile!

Probably a Male juvenile BIGFOOT accessing you up.
Several years ago a guy in Colorado was captured and held hostage for several days and was repeatedly raped by the BIGFOOT.
Consider yourself lucky that he didn't find you attractive.

Could have been "Smallfoot",  Bigfoots sister looking for love.

You are lucky she didn't come on to you. She is pretty hot when she braids her chin hair. :chuckle:

Sounds like time to pack anytime you are outdoors around your property.  Glad you make it through safe.
