i dont doubt what you are saying at all! if i can see a group of two lions, then anyone can! (all though these ones were not two years old, they were still lions together!) these cats were old enough to be out on their own with out momma, so they were somewhat mature. i heard from someone( cant remember who it was but he has killed a bunch of cats) that something like 80% of the cats he and other people have killed have skunks in their bellies.

Nice Coues buck
firstcoueswas80 replied to azpackhorse's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
looks to me like there is a bullet whole right where it should be! that is a dang nice buck! i agree with Christian on score and what i would do. nice find brian, when/where did you find him? -
i agree with this, it seems all of a sudden this year there is a HUGE boom of lions. i dont know why that is but this is the first year i have heard or read about so many people seeing so many lions. maybe the groups of lions are all young lions running together? i know the two lion that my buddy and i killed were young ones that were together. probably brothers as they were both males and of the same age and size. maybe now that more hunters have the big eyes they are seeing more lions. the lions that have always been there, but now can just be seen.

Two Coues Bucks
firstcoueswas80 replied to hunter4life's topic in Photography of Coues Deer and Other Wildlife
those are some nice bucks! that second buck looks like a big 3x2 with eyeguards? -
i think they point on the advance in technology (binos, game cameras) is a very good point. becase we can see so far and basically, where ever we want, we can look for lions all day. there is no way to fight it that lions do their fair share, maybe more of killing deer. i dont know about the whole deal that a lion will kill a deer a week, dont know how much i believe that because i think if a lion killed a deer a week, there would be carcasses literally everywhere... think about it one lion killing 52 deer a year... i think we would have a whole lot more bodies found. fact of the matter is lions, along with ( i believe) lack of rain fall, and houses popping up right in the middle of the coues country are factors that are affecting the population the most. coyotes add to that as i think they take a few more deer (mostly fawns) then people give them credit for taking.

Saw a buck this weekend with a all white tail and but. i had never see this before, his was was white on BOTH sides and and his but was white farther out around to the legs than any other deer i have ever seen.any one else seen this?
-
agreed. there is no doubt that lions do their fair share, but many other things attribute to the hurting of the herd as well.

Guess the score?
