Elk + a little surprise

This was sent to me by one of my face book friends.
Guy shot a nice elk in N. Dakota, took his picture on a timer,
and about had a heart attack when he downloaded it the next morning.

Sorry guys, I just found out this photo is a fake.

Whoo hoo hooey!! That would get my attention!!! We had a cougar on our leased land (central Wisconsin) all week of rifle deer hunting. One of the guys that walked in at 4:00 am in the morning had a "confrontation" with it. It was snarling and growling and he couldn't get into his blind quick enough. He was scared to death.

Guess they should have inserted a Sasquatch. At least that way people would know it was a fake... OR is it?

They did a good job on it. Had me believing it.

That pic has been floatin' around on hunting forums for years. Not to say it couldn't happen.

Even though the photo is faked, I was entertained by it.
