Den, with the fish nutrient crap that your menagerie is providing, your apple tree must bear a lot of fruit and be full of anti oxidants.

Most beautiful looking mountain lion Den, and yes bear crap is good for the land. that is why the forrests do so well in Canada.
Bleeding heck! Were warned about the bears when traipsing through the woods to get to the pub in Chemainus but no one told us about cougars!!!!!!!
Ignorance is bliss I guess when a cold beer is all you had on your mind.

I went camping through BC for a month in 1990, in the Rockies and the Ice Field Parkway, alone. in the woods from Vancouver, over the tops to Kamloops and then Banf to Jasper.
I went looking for Bear, never saw any, until I looked up and there were dozens of them sat up in the trees looking down at me,
I slept in my car after that.
Good adventures up there.

Cougar........the current description..............ladies in their 50/60's who prey on younger men in bars, guess that rules out most of us as their preyQuote:

One day when hunting, I had one track me back to my truck.
Only knew that as saw the tracks in new snow when I went back out.
Few minutes later it jumped out in front of me.
Scared the hell out of me, but it took off.
In cappy's chermanius area one attacked a full grown man. He managed to kill it with his knife.
He was a bit worse for ware.
Over the years several children have been killed.
One cougar in Tofino got into a school playground and took off with a little girl.
Mostly they are in the mountains and survive on the deer population.
Come down here when they are getting a bit old to catch their prey.
Farm next to me lost some sheep.
I was lucky, never lost any of mine.
No comments please John.

The sacrifices we made in those days.
There should be a medal for 'above and beyond'
