| Simply superb. When you view those size tusks up close you wonder how the hell the animal walked around with those huge teeth! |

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.
-Seth Peterson

| That looks like one from the "old days". It goes to show, there is still some nice ivory out there given the right time, place, work and luck.
What a bull! |
