Title: Pups
Post by: Gringo31 on May 11, 2010, 07:32:30 AM: I saw my first pups last night about midnight. The neighbors beef had gotten out and I was helping them locate and ran across about 8 pups.

There are 7 now.....

One can hope.

Reminds me of a line from the movie Full Metal Jacket.

I'll get a picture of the one I shot for size comparison later if I make it back that way.

The den is only 20 yards or so from where I saw them. I knew there was a den close but not the exact location till this morning.
