Taxation happens in nature too.

In Florida that would get you 4 prison terms..................

“Which was only missing the tail”

Maybe that deer owed them money.

Hey! It’s Pennsylvania.

[Red Badger]

That’s the plot of Hemingway’s “The Old Man and the Sea”..............

When I saw “Hunter” in the headline, I thought this would ba about Brandon’s son.

Hunter shoots first buck, but has laptop stolen by bear on a shark with a machinegun, and chases him into a mermaid crackhouse

Was only missing its tail.

Even bears need a piece of tail occasionally.

I remember a story in Tap’s Tips in Outdoor Life many years ago where a hunter shot his first buck. Excited and not quite sure what to do, he remembered his buddy telling him he wanted the tail for tying jigs. So he cut it off first thing.

However, the deer was just stunned. It woke up and ran away leaving the hunter holding its tail!

Ever heard of a sidearm, lady?

Offshore fishermen can relate....only instead of bears its sharks.

On the old west coast, new comers like me learned the hard way to quickly bring in salmon and other game fish before a Great White “Noshed” them into its’ mall.

“Now I know that if I just yell they are going to run.”

I live in PA close to game lands. We got a black bear in our yard trying to get into our chicken coop. I opened the door and yelled as loudly and threateningly as could: “HEY!!!!! GET OUT OF HERE!!!” Bear took off so fast he knocked down the fence to the chicken run.

I was very proud of myself.

Next year we had a yearling come into our yard near the coop. I figured, ok no problem I got this. Again yelled out loudly and threateningly as I could.

He turned, looked at me, and kept on doing what he was doing. Kept coming back that summer until the game warden trapped him and relocated him.

Just be aware you can get the odd bear that will call your bluff, Mrs. Zabinski. :)

[Red Badger]

Maybe he was deaf!...............................

[Spacetrucker]

You kidding, right? Bear meat is the nastiest of nasty, nothing on earth could get me to eat it again.

[Spacetrucker]

Central PA, not Joisey-neighbor. Over there, the bear woulda come up and said, ‘Nice bear ya got there, be a shame if something happened to it”.

[Wuli]

Smart bears. Maybe more bears ought to start letting the hunters get their food ready - LOL.

[Red Badger]

[lurk]

The trouble comes when the bears learn to associate gunfire with fresh meat.

[mad_as_he$$]

chuckle....WYDTISI!

[Claud]

Ha! You know I never considered that.

Warden thought he was just an overly aggressive male yearling. :)

[larrytown]

Someone took their wife out hunting, for the FIRST TIME, and didn’t SIT WITH THEM?

Whatta azz!

[ealgeone]

Not so sure about that anymore.....can you imagine the early settlers being told they had to have a license to hunt or to shoot a bear if it was after them?

they'd look at you like you'd lost your mind.

[blam]

"Is something wrong with this tall tail tale?"

I agree....something isn't right.
