2x2 - The Fair Chase: Arizona Mountain Lion
July 8, 2012
America’s desert Southwest is a sharp, hard country of cactus, deep canyons, and big cats.

Learning from two expert lion hunters, he immerses himself in a style of hunt that is utterly new to him. He is humbled by the challenge it presents, this hunt is physically brutal and emotionally taxing. Sometimes the reward of the hunt is the thrill of success and a delicious meal, and other times it’s a more personal, and possibly more important lesson of knowledge and humility.

With a little help, Steve prepares a true multicultural feast for a table of hungry cowboys.
