I took this pic while we were hunting for elk in Colorado last month. Came into a cow call. Can you guys spot the cat and the hunter? I took the pic at about 10 yards. Quite exhilarating to say the least!

Nice pic. Found the cat pretty quick but took a minute to see the hunter. Good job.

Bet that got your heart pumping a bit faster. Neat photo.

Great shot! That pic would make a helluva jigsaw puzzle.

Cool pic. Very close encounter. So your call sounded like a sick cow elk? 😉

Luckily he chose to beat feet instead of come at me I had same thing happen to me and trex a few years ago, except I was sitting down eating lunch, and it took three very aggressive hay cat’s for him to leave. I think if I’d been standing he would have spooked. I will say when he left he walked off

Looked at this early this morning and didn't post a reply. I found the cat quickly but it took me awhile to find the hunter. Heck of a memory of a hunt.
