WOW! Awesome pics!!!  Love the look on his face sitting there.  Like, he was saying, Look what I found.

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.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

did you put anything on the antlers? Did you even touch them with yer hands? Just seems strange that bear would spend that much time with that antler for no reason.

Cool shots !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  Fred,  I just get lucky sometimes. I carried this antler to the set, but I did not put anything on it. This bear played with the antler for hours, and I got over 350 pictures of him with the antler.

Neat idea.  Did you use your homebrew with the Sony W220?

Had a couple Griz yearlings steal two sets of Caribou antlers out of the yard.  They were eating them, you could hear them chomping and crunching through them with their teeth.  A couple days later I went looking for the antlers where they disaappeared over the hill and I found them half way chewed up.  Forgot to tell you they were in velvet so no doubt smelled the dried blood.  Anyone know how to get a picture off a video 8MM camera, then I could post a picture of the one bear with the antlers in his mouth crossing the main drag by my old house...
