Shoot one of those baby's and you'll have an extended stay.
They're off limits.
Bill will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you can draw a tag for the herd on the other side of the mountains.
You'd probably stand a better chance of being struck by lightning than getting drawn.

I think it has to do with the pressure in the cylinder. Compressing sea level atmosphere results in a higher cylinder pressure than compressing high elevation atmosphere. The slightly lower cylinder pressure needs a little more heat to ignite the fuel.
I don't know why they still have a long delay when the motor is obviously hot. That part is a mystery to me.

There are hunts in the Owens Valley.

But it is extremely hard to get a tag. Lightning would be a better wager.

Yeah, Flying Fish are a bit unusual. But then, other fish often breach the surface and can be said to be flying to catch bugs.
Okay, how about this - let's say a Bald Eagle swoops down and snatches a big Salmon out of Yellowstone Lake. He flys away with the Salmon in his talons toward his lair. Is the Salmon afraid because he is flying thousands of feet in the air? Is he afraid the Eagle will drop him? Or more afraid that it won't?
I'm sure you can begin to see why this is important!

I think being introduced so abruptly to an unfamiliar environment could certainly be a cause for concern to the Salmon, even though I know nothing about the level of self awareness a Salmon might have. I have to believe that the inability to breathe coupled with the discomfort of the Eagle's talons in it's flesh would be likely to outweigh any concerns it might have regarding it's sudden relocation to the sky.
This is assuming that there are Salmon in Yellowstone lake.
