Chris, with your connections, see if you can line up a Chupacabra hunt somewhere.  I'd love to tag along if possible!  I gotta get one of those mounted to look like he's eating a squirrel, or some pose like that.

Yeah, but then you can put a fair amount of FMJs down range. Great practice......Wink

Yaks being feral animals, there's no season and no bag limit.  There is no special tag either; you only have to buy a basic non-resident hunting license and you're set.  I can hook you up on some prime yak hunting, brother!  The chupacabra hunt is new to me, so I'm hoping Chris can make things happen there.

i knew a guy in wyoming that would go call coyotes during the winter much like i use to do and when he would shoot one, he make jerky from the coyotes, now i never tasted it and i never heard of anybody eating it and telling anybody, but any dog just ruins my appetite.

Chupacabra are aliens' dogs...
Opinion,untempered by fact,is ignorance.

There are some who do not fear death... for they are more afraid of not really living
