  Nope. Probably not for hundreds of miles.

  Good thinking they just don't seem to have a sense of humor

  Not much will make me crap my pants quicker than to all of a sudden spot a BiG full grown Bull Moose. The one time it's happened to me made me a believer. That was in Alaska out of Anchorage.

  I am way more concerned about bumping into that on my way to the deer stand in the dark than I am a wolf or 3.

  Awesome animals. Great pic. Thanks!
  I don't know what it is, but I'd rather hunt moose 10:1 over bears.

  Had two similar experiences while living in Colorado. Once with a bull who stood in the middle of a road to a camp spot and blocked me for 20 or so min before wandering off. And once with a cow and calf. That one was scary as we were on foot and she was not in the mood to be triffled with.

  Yeah, the cows sound even more scary from the outside looking in. I've never seen one in the flesh, but my roomate in Officer Training School was a survival instructor and had a scary run-in with a cow and her calf. Apparently, it involved him dancing around a tree as she tried her best to hoof-pummel him.

  Accuracy: because white space between bullet holes drives me insane.
