hey guys and gals, out here in Idaho, it's whistlepig time! Whistlepigs are a species of ground squirrel here in Southern ID. I don't know where the "pig" comes from, but they do certainly whistle! I took these photos this morning after a successful hunt with my Marlin 917VT...HMR is smokin'!

I just obtained my hunting license (I have no clue why I waited so damn long). Anyhow, not really Elk-type hunting, but still real fun, nonetheless. Shots at 100+ are rather challenging as these guys are pretty damn small.
