They changed our laws a few years back so otters can only be trapped nowadays. Any encounter I have now is accidental.  Taken preban.

I’d love to have been a PH in post ww1 era Africa or to hunted with Corbett in India for empirical man eating leopards 

I’d love to have , in another life , driven the plains of the mid west with a truck loaded with hard and cold bloods to drop onto coyotes and hares and watch them disappear into the horizon 

id like to have walked the frozen forests of Canada with a bow with chuck Adam’s in search of the next pope and young record specimen 

but mainly , I’m thankful that I’ve had some great crack with some great people and some fantastic animals in an era when it wasn’t such a f***ing naus to get out with a running dog 

something my boy , will sadly never experience
