My first Caribou. A very nice bull taken with a lucky shot at 400 yards. The animal has a beautiful double shovel. I am having this specimen mounted. |
A biologist told me that the antlers on a Caribou of this size will grow as much as 3 inches a day during the summer. This animal had just about peaked and would have begun shedding velvet in a matter of days. |
