35 years ago while fishing on piney creek in polk co. I saw a tree with the lower bark stripped with claw marks and I could think of nothing else doing it.
About 12 years ago one showed up at Crane Texas, and that is desert country.
I have a rancher pt. that has seen one on his place just north of Big Bend.
The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by the blood of patriots and tyrants.
If being stupid allows me to believe in Him, I'd wish to be a retard. Eisenhower and G Washington should be good company.
