amazing animals. Went elk hunting a few years back in MT, the rockies. One morning we went up to camp early, EARLY, the second half was about15 minutes behind us. They followed lion prints in the snow all the way up the trail. When they got about 1/4 mile out from the camp the lion was laying under a pine staring at us screwing around. They shot towards the lion and it ran off. The thing was it stalked us up the whole morning and we didn't even know it. Freaked me the heck out!!!
