jred,
That is creepy. No big foot reportings that I know of have ever been reported in Northern and Southern MN and to tell you the truth I woould rather not want to run into one. I myself have never seen one, but I believe in them. You never know what what you will see in the woods especially in a vast area that streches for hundreds of miles. I myself dont know if I would shot one unless it attacked me. I can grant you this, he would be the first one going down, not me. If someone did shoot one, they would probablly be a millionare if you think publicity wise. I like to carry a 45 long barrel myself at my side when I hunt up in the Chippewa National Forest northern MN. There have been a lot of timber wolves reported up there this year and if there is a big group of them, they will attck you. Anyways I dont take no chances. As I said, You never know what you can see out there in the woods, especially if you are deep in there.
