3 Bulls

Nice shots!

RMNP?

There's a group in south Loveland. Yesterday they were in the field just north of Centennial Park. Much of the group was laying in the grass but the bull had the "perfect photo stance". I almost pulled over for a pic, but as I was looking east into the morning sun it would have been a poor pic (for me to take).

If you're inclined to take a short trip to Loveland...

Yep. Moraine Park.

The one in the trees was.the biggest: 7 points. 4 and 6 pointers in the meadow.

Nice pics.

Very cool. No matter how many times you see them they're still impressive

Nice pics Tom! You should come up and get your moose pics :) Got a huge cat on the prowl up here too.

I'd like to see a cat - if not in person, even in a photo would be nice.

Geez I posted a couple of bobcat pics last spring.:lmao:

[Jim]

And they were a grand "start"... (stirring the pot)

Now chat with Paul and get set for some large kitty photos!



Hmmm... Is there any estimate as to how many large cats there might be in the state?

[glacierpaul]

Couple hundred I would imagine. A search on the DOW site would probably give us the #.

It seems, from the first URL, the numbers are but only rough estimates (of 3500 to 4500).
