1) goats and sheep - dont know why, just don't care to.
2) elk...10th season's the charm! Even I don't believe that anymore Maybe I'll find a half retarded one with a broken tine in his head, that I can finish off.

Don't care to shoot a cougar to hunt with dogs just seems really no challenge and in my opinion pretty lame.
Mule deer and elk are my favourites

Default Animals that you would not shoot

1/. Whitetail doe (no)
2/. Big bull elk (you bet!)
P.S. I like the idea of hamming every baboon I could until my shoulder was raw!

NO INTEREST - no big cats, unless it's preying on livestock.

TOP PRIORITY - everything else... Grizzly, Bison, bull Elk, Wolf would be my top choices though.
