so a buddy and I go out to do some predator hunting down beside Westside road today, as he owns 10 acres of land, and we bring out a .22 and I bring my bow. we were calling for roughly an hour before dark and as dark fell we got up to make the short 1km trek back to the house when we hear A neighbours dog barking in the distance. thinking it might be Yotes making him angry I blow my jackrabbit in distress call, I call for maybe 15 minutes and by now it's completely dark, we have no lights and we can't see a darn thing so we start walking back again and 15 minutes later as we are about 100 feet away from the house my friend pipes up and says " oh! by the way my neighbour saw a large cougar in the area a few days ago!!" so now things are making sense as to why we didn't see any Yotes that day because they're probably steering clear for the time being because of the cougar, and I'm thinking man, were out here well after complete dark calling with a distressed rabbit call hoping for something to come in, and looking back I'm sure glad the wrong something didn't come in looking for a snack!! if anybody else has stories it would be awesome to hear them!
