I've seen several and have 1 hanging on a wall.
The secret to fishing.....fish where the fish are.

They are occasionally seen around here. Game and Fish figures they are just passing through like the Moose that are seen here occasionally.
It seems to go from zero to hero all some have to do is lie.

A few years back I was traveling west on Route  9 (The Airline) coming back from New Brunswick on my way back to Bangor and somewhere around the Crawford/Wesley line I saw a cat emerge from the right hand side of the road (the northern side) and it crossed right in front of my motorcycle about 40 yards ahead of me and disappeared into the woods on the southern side of the road (to the left)...The cat had a long tail. I know what I saw. It wasn't a lynx or a bobcat because neither has a long tail and whatever the animal that I saw was, it had a tail as long as the length of it's whole body.  The whole thing happened in like a second or two....I was amazed, it all happened so fast. I had heard "reports" of mountain lion sightings for years. I saw what I saw.

Appears your friend isn't the only one hunting turkeys.

I think I’ll cal this post “girlythingfooting Around”.  ;D ;)2 :icefish: Should NOT read “girlythingfooting”  :sick: CRACK ME UP! Was punning on the cat theme. You know, another name for cats and things they do.  ;D :roflmao: :icefish: :thumbsup:

It’s kinda like that thing when someone says “It’s a Cocker” which doesn’t get changed to the actual saying, which is “Corker” meaning a good wine deserving of a cork and being saved!

HAHAHA I post an piece, for general information, of a guy that was actually ice fishing and the snowflakes start to prematurely melt! I made NO comments, just posted what the guy saw and filmed as best he could. It wasn’t about who eats whom or who hunts what or who really likes wild stuff, especially seen while ice fishing! People have posted muskrats, otter and a saw a merganser and a mink at some point.... Love good wildlife posts! Love, clamfarmer.  :angel :-*

Not trying to step on toes but I’ve grilled lion loins. Taste like pork chop
