most awesome thing to happen to me was sitting on a log not making a sound or movement, hearing the woods start moving about 20 ft away then having a big female mountain lion appear and run right by me. she ran less than a foot away from me i could have reached out and gave her a hug. i decided not to though seemed the best thing not to try to piss a big cat off that is that close lol. she slightly tensed a couple steps past me so i knew she caught my scent. a scant couple seconds later and she was gone. ive seen big cats before driving down the road at night and whatnot but to see such a big cat up so close was simply unforgettable.

The Mouse River wanders it's way around Minot and thru a number of city parks. Back in the 70's they channelized the river and cut off a couple of oxbows. I saw a beaver swim into a culvert in one of these oxbows in Oak Park. I dashed down and lay on the culvert waiting for her to swim out the other end.
As she swam out I reached out and stroked her back. Immediately she slapped her tail on the surface and sounded for the deeps like Moby Dick! She left me with a face full of stagnant pondwater and a memory of the touch of a wild beaver.
Del the cat:
Aw, we don't get nuthin' like that in the UK.
But when I was lad I used to beat on the local pheasant shoot.
Going through this thicket one time there was rustling noise and a commotion right in front comin' straight at me. A split second later this little deer burst out in front of me WHACK straight into my thigh. It stopped dead, shook it's head and we looked at eachother... it then bolted leaving me gobsmacked. I didn't realise how lucky I was until I heard that about 6months later one of the forresters was put in hospital when a deer got his thigh with it's antler.
