I trust this one is a joke... I know the BLM and FS don't advertise a lot of their rock art sites, to prevent vandalism. Same thing with some of the rare animals such as Midget Faded Rattlesnake dens. People either vandalize or remove them (yes, remove rock art by cutting slates out of the rocks) to sell or collect. The rare reptile market is bigger than many think, and the indian artifact black market is HUGE..

Lists like that are fine for other people. I've got three on the list and will probably never get more. Nor do I have any particular desire to do so. Elk, mulies and antelope suit me fine.

No, I'm not a Ruger bigot - just an unabashed fan of their revolvers, M77's and #1's.

Another name there as well, "Jesse."

Ok, so the North American 29 list. What have you got? A few guys have gotten them all. That's incredibly difficult obviously. How about the Super Ten? I've got whitetail, elk and that's it!

Here's the List

Your list is biased. Bagged a croc down in the Fl. Keys years ago. Screwed up my front end alignment something fierce. Nailed a few sharks with a spear gun too, nothing big actually, about 10-11' at most. Powerheads are for puzzies. Lizard lives matter. Doctors in the grey suit, not so much.
I am..........disturbed.

The whole list thing cracks me up, but if that is your thing, then good for you as we all have our perspective and I respect that (up to the point someone begins to be an azz hat). In my mind it does not represent how good of a woodsman, hunter, shooter, or outdoorsman you are nor does it truly represent your passion for being outdoors or sharing the experience with others. I'm reminded of this every time I happen to turn on a hunting show or read about some 'outdoor celebrity' who more than likely fits that azzhat category.
I've been fortunately to take a few different species, partially because I've gotten lucky with a few draws, and partially because I've been lucky enough to live in AK and the West.
