Damn near had a heart attack!

Sunday, July 12th, 2009

Driving down highway 95 south of Coeur d’Alene I came upon the largest herd of elk I’ve ever seen in my life. There was easily 60 bulls just hanging out just off the side of the highway in a green pasture. Then I noticed another group of cows, 50 or so, another 50 yards down the road. I just couldn’t believe what I was seeing. And something just didn’t seem right.

Then I noticed the 8ft wire fences between the groups, and I remembered a friend telling me about a wild game ranch. Finally I put two and two together. Talk about a buzz kill.

Of course, the only camera I had was my iPhone, and it doesn’t work so well at 65mph.
