Cool helicopter photos


Recommended Posts

What exactly is goat tagging, anyway? RFID tags, or just plastic ones?

 

I guess I've been calling it the wrong thing. It is actually mountain goat darting.

 

The procedure is this:

1. get in the helicopter with a Fish and Game Person with a dart rifle

2. find mountain goat

3. take right door off

4. chase mountain goat

5. shoot mountain goat

6. keep mountain goat from falling off the cliff with the helicopter

7. mountain goat falls asleep

8. land and attach various devices to the mountain goat including a gps collar, ear tag... leaving the mountain goat with a funny "abduction" like feeling.

can't pass it up, shouldn't ya take the door off first :blink: :D

 

Maybe if you're in Arizona but in Alaska it gets a little cold up in the mountains without the door on :)

 

We usually drop it off at the fuel cache but if I can keep it on that's better for me. It'll be cold enough soon.
