« on: September 01, 2011, 10:06:59 PM »
I saw this rare black fox while hunting the high country today , i was able to get with in 12 yards and decided to take pics instead of shoot it so that someone else may beable to enjoy seeing it some day.

That's good you didn't shoot. The hide isn't worth tanning yet. .We killed a black one last year.

Very cool, thanks for sharing the pics!
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.

That's awesome Weatherbyfan.  Neatest WA animal pic I've seen in quite a while.  I also like your choice of weapon for the shot. :tup:
