They are very intelligent. I watched a program a few years back, and years ago there was a group of them used to follow the whaling ships and help with the capture of the whales. They used to head them off, then a certain one of them used to grab the rope off a harpoon and slow the harpooned whale down so that the boat could catch up. The whalers then used to feed the guts of the whales to the orcas. They had the skull of this lead one after it died, and one of it's teeth was worn down to nothing where it used to grab the rope. Amazing animals. absolutly brillant and how the fo

Isn't this a shooting site then? Take a good look. Add up the number of posts on the shooting sections of this forum, and then add up the total number of posts on the 'dog' sections. Subtract the 'crap' and then see what this site is really about......... It's called 'The Hunting Life', not the 'My dogs better than your dog' site. I think its a sad state of affairs, but there ye go. I still think the site would be better, and easier to moderate without the dog sections. JMHO. not only is my dog a 1000 times better then yours matt ....iam a better shot then you too....

the foundations off this site was built on the lurchers and terrier section.......DOGS.............theres plenty of just shooting sites if folks prefer.....
