Upon another occasion, while hunting cougars with a hound, I came abruptly upon a doe and a buck in a deep ravine. It was open season and we needed camp meat. Gauging my distance carefully, I shot at the buck, striking him in the flank. For the first time in my life, I heard an adult deer bleat.

"I've got a search warrant empowering me to search this yacht for you and one Zara Doe and take you ashore." "We're the ones! Take us!" pleaded Bessie.
