    The Pronghorn are a fascinating animal and a real challenge to hunt.
    Combine super vision somewhere between 6X and 10X with a very jittery animal that has wicked speed and you have the hunt of a lifetime.
    They are capable of bursts of speed exceeding 60 mph and can run all day at 35 to 40 mph.
    I was surprised when butchering how large their lungs and heart were.
    Their biggest downfall is their curiousity, we would spot a herd, wrap a couple gunny sacks around ourselves and just sit there.
    Eventually the leader or other males would walk within range to see what was going on.
    Another funny quirk is the fact that they go under a fence unlike a deer that will jump it.
    Of all the game animals I have hunted they are my favourite..
    Lord, Please help me to become half the man my Dog thinks I am..

    I’d rather re-introduce grizzlies to Stanley Park

    Re: introducing pronghorns

    Prong Horns are cool for sure, and I would love to hunt them, but not so sure it would be a good idea, and like someone mentioned, we need to take care of the species we do have right now.
    Too bad Wild Boar do so much damage, as those too, are fun to hunt, and real tasty!
    But hey.....did I mention elk in those areas suggested

    Hunters should really lobby for the reintroduction of all preds to Stanley park

    That would be a fun way to wake up some city people lol
