This fellow had his eyes on a harem near Davison Road north of Orick this morning. He never got close during the short time I was there, but I witnessed another bull sneak in and covort with the cows before the "master" bull saw him and chased him away. The master bull seemed pissed off about the situation and who can blame him? The gene pool needs to stay strong. Nobody wants a bunch a weak slackers breeding with the ladies.
