[QUOTE="Ol' Red, post: 2699421, member: 107965"] OK I'll tell one that's not my animal. Moose hunting and camping along a creek in Alaska. Buddy has a young bull/ cow permit. Wake up to start a fire and there is a small bull standing across the creek about 150 yards off if not closer. He asks if he should shoot it and naturally everyone said yes, it's close to camp. He drops the bull and starts to cross the creek that is usually 3 feet deep at the most. Due to the three days of rain we had, it turned out to be closer to six feet deep, so we would have to drive up the road to cross at a bridge. Ten miles up the road and ten miles back we find a trail that is 100 yards on the other side of the moose. Still an easy recovery, until we sink over the tops of the hip waders in a bog. The moose was standing on the only solid ground. It looked like no easy way to recover the moose. Then we hear a couple eight wheel buggies coming down the trail, and they stopped. Two natives got a good laugh at us and yelled "you're not supposed to shoot the moose in the swamp." They then offered to help if we wanted any. Like we would turn them down. Those buggies came across the bog pretty easy and sucked the moose out and right to the truck. Sorry about the long winded post. Also, any place I said "we" insert a they. I don't want to admit to having any part of this one. [/QUOTE]
