OK, here we go again. If you could only fish/hunt for one single species of each of the following in North America what would it be? One fish, one bird, one ungulate and one non-ungulate mammal.
My list:
Fish - lake trout in the Northwest Territories (smallmouth bass if stuck in US)
Bird - pheasants
Ungualte - Elk 'cuz - tasty (antelope a close second just 'cuz - fun)
Non-ungulate mammal - black bear (coyote close second with squirrels distant third)
In order to do this, I would have to be allowed to choice the location of the hunt, type of hunt and the list would have an expiration date of one year and then a new list would be made
year one: Elk in the White Mtn Apache Res in AZ---Kodiak Brown Bear, Kodiak Is, Alaska--Pheasants, South Dakota --Blue Catfish, Miss. River
year two: Stone Sheep via Horseback, Yukon Canada-- Mountain Lion with dogs in Az--Turkey, Az--Northern Pike, AZ
year three: Yukon Moose via river raft, Alaska---Coyote's --Sandhill Crane ----Salmon, with Salmonchaser
looking at my list, I could just stay in Az ( Elk, Lion, Turkey, Pike ) but how boring would that be
It would be interesting when this thread comes to an end if someone was to calculate which animal in each category was mentioned the most and post it for us.
