I don't know what to say to you. I guess you're telling me I haven't seen or heard them. I guess you're telling me that the guys in our camp, long time trusted and experienced hunters, haven't seen them and couldn't get a shot? I guess you're saying there aren't literally hundreds of game cam pictures, many clear as Len's wedding photos, in this state. I guess this guy didn't kill one:

I actually don't understand why you are incredulous? To what end?

Our AGFC has done the same thing as NC has done, denied, denied, denied. I got the PR Director of AGFC in my kitchen (at camp) and grilled him. He 'has to' state there are none (this was 5 years ago). Now, he admits they are here. Their CURRENT statement is that they are here, all right, but there are no females. I don't know........I see prints of cubs and mama's, but whatever.

I can't stop stating what is obvious. I don't know why the reluctance to believe in the face of such evidence, but that's fine. It's a free country.
