According to the Alaska hunting regulations it is illegal to "take" big game animals with a .22 rimfire (page 16). The definition of "take" (page 23) includes "attempting to take, pursue, hunt, fish, trap, or in any manner capture or kill fish or game." Just attempting to shoot a bison with a .22LR in Alaska is therefore illegal. I still haven't seen that episode, but I did see the goat hunt episode today. I'm glad that guy got to go on his first hunting trip, but that was really pretty pathetic. I love how these people are roughing it in their "crude shelters" i.e. cabins, complete with pressure cookers for canning salmon. I'm interested to see just how well they like eating those spawned out salmon they're pulling out of those streams. They look downright nasty. Those two snotty sisters need to get their clocks cleaned. If I ever talked to my ol' man like that he would have knocked me the #$%& out!!!

Amen to that! lol!. . if I ever talked to my dad the way those girls do, I woulda been knocked silly for sure [8D]. . . . I watched a couple of episodes, but it's too staged for me. . . shelter, gear and all, I still think they'd all be dead within a month without their "off camera experts" there to save them.
