I am going to rip the audio to MP3 and use it for elk and cougars.  Just thought I would share.   :tup:

Some people spend their entire life wondering if they made a difference. Marines don't have that problem.

Sure doesn't seem like there are very many predators in that area, lots of calves to cow ratio.  How often do elk have twins?  I saw one cow nursing two calves.  I thought it was rare.

From what I have heard there are times when the calves are left in little herds where there is only a couple cows that watch over all of them.

Got most of it out.  Sounds a little thin in the headphones but I dont think it will matter much through the ecaller out in the field.
