I love that picture. What an unbelievable animal.

Good eye BigDog.  Yep, I had this old boy show up on an Idaho cam a few times and kind of looks like he's done battle and survived some sort of predator attack (there are wolves, grizz, and a lot of big cats in this area).  But, it could just be the camera angle and its just the way the ear looks from that angle... not sure as this is the best pic I had of that bull.

I'd caption that pic, "Just after the shot, muzzle loader season"  :chuckle:

Good point.  Vandeman should do something about that.
