A couple of Tahr pics from two days ago.

This time of the year occasionally you find the big bulls down low. I managed to follow this big bugger for about an hour and got over 150 photos of him, from as close as 50 feet.
I figure he's about 13 inch or so.
Has held his colour late, so must have been holed up in a dark face or in the bush.

Could have easily taken him with a bow. Has left me wandering if the world record would have been in jeopardy?

Here's a pic of the current world record Bow Killed Tahr.

Muzza if you're wandering where this one was.
In the river bed, below our campsite on your Tahr hunt.

So Tim - you are telling me there was bigger bull at lower altitude than the one I busted my flabby ass off chasing ?

I thought "they" had done a cull the week after we were there ?
