And I was like, oh, those are Wolverine tracks. And he was just so much sneakier than Bear would have been or something. So it kind of surprised me. And he... took off with that jug of fat. And so then I went from feeling pretty good about myself to like, now I'm losing again against whoever, you know, this other person is with a moose.

So I, again, kind of the pressure came back to, oh no, I got to produce again. You know, it wasn't the end of the world. And I think they may have exaggerated a little bit how little fat I had left. You know, I still had, a moose has a lot of fat, but it did make me feel like I was at a disadvantage again. And so. Yeah, that was pretty intense because those wolverines, they're bold little animals.

Yeah, so I'd missed one and I just decided I'm not here to starve. I'm here to try to become sustainable. So I was like, I don't care if it's a risk. I'm going to build that fence. I built it. I would just pick berries and call moose every day. And it was actually really pleasant just sitting in a berry patch and call moose. But then I also had this whole trap and snare line set out everywhere.
