Wonder if she would have picked up an old half drunk predator hunter the same way? [Big Grin]

You just never know what a female would do. My daughter picked up a fawn, put it in the back seat and took it to her Vet. Where it died.

Some women are just hardwired , compassionate to a ridiculous and illogical extent.

Which is why we are never going to get lions delisted as "endangered". All they have to do is break out the "orphan cubs" video and their hearts melt. Has nothing to do with the subject, it has bothered me for 20 years, the dishonesty of the environmentalists and bunny huggers.

Good hunting. El Bee

I am betting that the woman peed a little when that cat woke up. [Wink]

A long time ago............
I knew a guy (since passed away) who had a truly twisted sense of humor. Bobcat fur was worthless at that time and he had one in a trap. He came back with an old suitcase and managed to close it around the 'cat, minus the leg sticking out with the trap. He loosened the trap, the 'cat pulled it's leg in and he closed the suitcase the rest of the way.
He now had a very pissed off, live bobcat, in a suitcase.
Said suitcase was driven down to L.A.X. (this was way before 9-11) He parked his truck, took the suitcase into a terminal, joined a group coming out and set the suitcase down at the cross-walk. Light turns and he crosses back to his truck, leaving the suitcase on the corner.
Enter the Low-Rider.
A Low-Rider then comes up and a couple of u-turns later, the suitcase is in the car. Very shortly afterwards, there was an empty LowRider with all four doors open, going down Century Blvd.
The guy that I knew was still giggling like a village idiot a week later when he told me about it.
Bobcats just don't belong inside of vehicles.

That's a great story KoKo. I'm thinking if they could stuff a skunk in there too, it would make identifying the stinkin' thieves easier.

When I was first getting interested in hunting predators, I went to a meeting and met people with similar interests.

How true this is, I can't say but without further ado.

Three guys, (or was it 2?) sitting in the cab of a pickup parked down some dusty road in the middle of the Mojave desert. (that's Mohave for all you AZ boys)

One guy has a Weems all call and it's pitch dark with the windows rolled down. He calls and calls some more.

A bobcat jumps in the cab with these guys and I assume, all hell breaks loose?

End of story.

That story, true or not was making the rounds here locally for quite a few years.

Good hunting. LB

Near he movie studios in Inglewood there use to be deer that ranged from LAX into the foot hills of LA . I guess it was ok to hunt them because of the movie co. (Universal Studios?) considered them a pest. These days if a car backfired there would be a swat team there in minutes. Calif use to be a hunters paradise.

Yeah, a hunter's paradise, if the rule wasn't forked horn or better. You might see 50/100 deer a day and no bucks. That's game management, California Style. And, that explains why most of us pay outrageous non res fees and hunt out of state.

But, you can hunt in all National Forest Land anywhere around L.A. Of course, on opening day, dove season, you need a hard hat. The rain is hard.

Good hunting. Lima Bravo

there are still pheasants along the San Gabriel river that flows from the mountains to the ocean, maybe 40 miles, mostly bridle trails along the levees.

The first legal deer i ever saw being shot in Calif was in Gorman , probably a forked horn. All i remember was, i was hooked on hunting. We had to put the deer into the trunk of a 66 mustang to get it home.

LB, i had a friend who was a true cowboy. Carl Oakford was his name. He said that they drove cows to market thru the river beds (Santa Ana, Los Angeles & San Gabriel rivers) up until after WWII. Before he passed, Carl game me his Colt 44-40 pistol. Yes i still have that six shooter! And a handful of black powder shells that were in the cylinder when i got it.
