This is possibly the coolest story Ive ever heard... I HATE yotes with a passion. Never have killed one. I too know what its like to have a wild animal try to kill you but not to your extent. I was out checking my trail camera when somthing moved through the grass so I yelled and it started coming towards me. I saw some black and white and thought i was dealing with a skunk but out came a badger. He was suprised for about two seconds and so was I then he decided that I should leave and started to charge me,then Black Betty my 22-250 talked him out of it. He was 6 feet away when I shot him. Now I always carry a rifle with me because I know that I would have had a good run had I not been armed.
