    There is something so charming about how normal it is for two dudes camping to inevitably end up discussing which wildlife they could take mano a mano.

    They were taller than my dog who is 70 lb and is a Lab Sherard.
    They were at least 60 lb.
    The city told them not to have small dog or children out alone. Cats can get away.
    Coyotes are pkg animals, so don't underestimate them. Where you see one there are more around.
