Stags, Ponies, Raptors – what an amazing day we’ve had! 🦌🐴🦅 Today was all about being surrounded by nature's finest. The majestic stags, with their powerful antlers, roamed gracefully through the fields, a true symbol of strength and endurance. The wild ponies, untamed and free, galloped across the landscape, their manes flowing in the wind, reminding us of the beauty of freedom and resilience. And then there were the raptors – sharp-eyed, fierce hunters of the skies, soaring effortlessly as they scanned the ground below for prey. Each animal brought its own sense of wonder, from the ground to the sky. It’s moments like these that remind us of the incredible diversity in the animal kingdom and the thrill of witnessing it up close.

Judge Issues Injunction Blocking Wisconsin Fall Wolf Hunt A judge on Friday (10/22/2021) halted Wisconsin's fall wolf season two weeks before hunters were set to take to the woods, siding with wildlife advocacy groups who argued holding the hunt would be unconstitutional. Dane County Circuit Judge Jacob Frost issued a temporary injunction halting the season, which was set to begin November 6. The order comes as part of a lawsuit that a coalition of wildlife advocacy groups filed in August seeking to stop the hunt and invalidate a state law authorizing annual seasons. Among other things, the coalition argued that the season is illegal because the (Wisconsin) Department of Natural Resources hasn't updated its regulations setting season parameters, and has been relying on an emergency rule put in place shortly after then-Gov. Scott Walker signed a law in 2012 authorizing annual seasons and a wolf-management plan that hasn't been updated since 2007. Frost said the law creating the wolf

A young brown bear searches for food at low tide, looking for crabs or small fish under rocks. A bear walks along the shore eating crabs and barnacles at low tide and grasses in Glendale Cove, British Columbia, Canada. Brown bears are one of the most powerful land mammals. The bear's front paws, armed with powerful claws, are a universal tool with which the beast digs a den, digs up the holes of marmots and ground squirrels, turns over rocks that are too heavy for humans, breaks trees, and catches fish. Claws are excellent ground hooks. Thanks to them, bears can easily move along steep slopes, where it is difficult for a person to stay. Grizzly bears are one of the strongest land mammals, their strength is comparable to that of 3-5 humans. They can easily flip over large rocks in search of food. In the video, a young bear turns over a rock with one paw to find small fish and crustaceans hiding at low tide.

Benelli Shotguns: A Legacy of Innovation for the Modern Hunter For generations, the name Benelli has been synonymous with speed, reliability, and cutting-edge design in the world of shotguns. If you're serious about hunting, you've likely considered or even own a Benelli. But how did this Italian company become a global leader, trusted by hunters in diverse environments? Let's dive into the story. The Birth of a Legend: From Motorcycles to Shotguns The Benelli story begins, surprisingly, not with firearms, but with motorcycles. In 1911, the Benelli brothers – six in total: Giuseppe, Giovanni, Francesco, Filippo, Domenico and Antonio – opened a garage in Pesaro, Italy, repairing and manufacturing motorcycle parts. After World War I, they built their first complete motorcycle in 1921. Benelli motorcycles quickly gained a reputation for performance and innovation, achieving racing success throughout the 1920s and 30s. However, in 1967, the Benelli Group, seeking diversification, turne

Pheasants Forever - In 1982, a group of pheasant hunters saw the connection between upland habitat loss and declining pheasant populations. An organization dedicated to wildlife habitat conservation was needed, and Pheasants Forever was formed. Then in 2005, as quail numbers continued to decline nationwide, passionate conservationists across the country stepped up once again to found Quail Forever. Together, Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever’s mission work quickly garnered it a reputation as “The Habitat Organization,” a tagline the nonprofit conservation group uses proudly to this day. Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever’s mission is to conserve pheasants, quail, and other wildlife through habitat improvements, public access, education and conservation advocacy.

Anschutz 1516 .22 WMR: A Hunter's Honest Review As a hunter who's been tracking game and spending time at the range for years, I have a soft spot for quality rimfire rifles. The Anschutz 1516 in .22 WMR has been on my radar for a while, and after putting it through its paces, here's my no-nonsense take: The Good (Where the 1516 Shines): Unrivaled Accuracy: This is where the Anschutz truly stands out. The match-grade barrel and precise manufacturing translate to incredibly tight groups. Even at 100 yards, it's consistently accurate, making it a top choice for small game hunting and target shooting. I have to say that the .22 WMR version of the 1516 may actually be better that it's .22 LR brother in this instance. Exceptional Trigger: The trigger is crisp, light, and adjustable. It's a joy to use and significantly contributes to the rifle's overall accuracy. High-Quality Build: Anschutz rifles are known for their craftsmanship, and the 1516 is no exception. The fit and finish are ex

ATA Arms Turqua Gen2 in .308 Win review I recently had the opportunity to try out the ATA Arms Turqua Gen2 in .308 Win with a 61 cm barrel and a 1:11 twist rate, and I wanted to share my thoughts on this rifle. First off, I was really impressed with the build quality of the Turqua Gen2. The materials used feel solid, and the overall construction seems robust. This rifle has a nice balance to it, which makes it quite comfortable to handle. The 61 cm barrel provides a good compromise between accuracy and maneuverability, making it suitable for both range shooting and hunting applications. When it comes to accuracy, the 1:11 twist rate has proven effective. During my testing, I was able to achieve tight groups with a variety of .308 ammunition types. It seems to stabilize the bullets well, giving me confidence in its performance at various distances. The ergonomics of the rifle are quite good. The stock is comfortable, and the controls are intuitive and easy to operate. I appreciated

How to Track a Buck in the Snow Have You Ever Slipped Up on a Deer in the Snow? No doubt about it, the vast majority of whitetail hunting today is done from some type of elevated platform – treestand, tripod or shooting house. That wasn’t always the case. To this day, many northwoods hunters still practice the age-old art of tracking in the snow. So can you, and here are a few tips to help you along the trail. To follow a track you first need to find one, and the more ground you cover the better the odds. Typically, the big woods hunters will drive the backwoods roads before daylight. These are often dirt logging roads, some accessible only by 4WD vehicle, which is what you want. Less Traffic, More Deer You’ll usually find an inverse correlation – the less vehicle traffic, the more deer traffic. If you really want to get away from the crowd, and back where the big bucks roam, unload your ATV and ride the least-accessible roads and trails into the more remote areas. Reading Tracks Once

How to Plant a Deer Orchard Should fruit trees be part of your program? Check out these tips for starting new trees Lush fields of clover, alfalfa and brassicas aren’t the only crops that will hold deer on your property. Once established, fruit trees can produce highly attractive forage for 40 years or more. The right trees produce edible fruit throughout the entire hunting season, drawing deer from a distance and holding them on your property. Select the Right Tree Deer will readily consume apples, pears, plums, persimmons, and mulberries. By planting a variety of trees, you can ensure at least one ripe food source throughout the season. Most fruit varieties are available in dwarf, semi-dwarf and standard sizes. Dwarf varieties mature around 8- to 10-feet tall and wide. They’re suitable for small spaces and can stand up to high winds better than larger trees. Their height also makes it easier for deer to reach fruit before it falls to the ground, though the small size of these trees

SOUTH DAKOTA RANCHERS UPSET OVER NUMBER OF ELK CONTINGENCY LICENSES South Dakota ranchers are angry over the number of elk contingency licenses recently issued across four units, especially because they were involved in the creation of the new elk management plan in 2015. South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (SDGFP) announced this week that there would be 20 of these licenses in units that span both public and private property, the Black Hills Pioneer reports. The elk contingency licenses are used to “reduce the elk population in areas that have been heavily affected by drought,” said Andrew Norton, SDGFP senior big game biologist. There is not set location for where these licenses are issued. Basically, it’s based upon where the elk are “relative to the department’s objective” so that the elk population can be reduced “in order to improve grazing conditions on forest service land that ranchers lease.” Yet, Aaron Thompson, president of the Spearfish Livestock Association, Eric Jenning

Closing dates vary between December 31 for resident species and January 31 for migratory and nocturnal ones. Compared to Umbria, the Marche region allows more flexibility in wild boar hunting thanks to active monitoring programs. The territory—40% mountainous, 45% hilly, and 15% flat—influences wildlife distribution. Recent changes include reinforced measures for wild boar management (2023) and mandatory electronic logging of harvested animals (2024). Hunti

Heavy bodied and long-legged, with a drooping nose, moose (Alces alces) are the largest members of the deer family. They range in color from golden brown to almost black, depending upon the season and the age of the animal. Full-grown males (bulls) stand almost 6 ft (1.8 m) tall at the shoulder, and males in prime condition weigh from 1,200 to 1,600 lbs (542 –725 kg). Adult females are somewhat smaller and weigh 800 to 1,300 lbs (364 – 591 kg). A 1,600-lb (726-kg) moose will dress out at about 950 lbs (431 kg), yielding approximately 500 lbs (227 kg) of meat. Alaskans and nonresidents annually harvest 6,000 to 8,000 moose, which translates into about 3.5 million pounds of usable meat. Only bull moose have antlers. The largest moose antlers in North America come from Alaska, the Yukon Territory, and the Northwest Territories of Canada. Trophy class bulls are found throughout Alaska, but the largest come from the western portion of the state. Moose occasionally produce trophy-size antle

How We Tested the Best Spotting Scopes We invite manufacturers to submit any new spotting scopes introduced from mid-2022 through 2023. Because this particular category of sports optics is expensive to manufacture, and because the market isn’t nearly as dynamic as rifle scopes or binoculars—after all, once you’ve purchased a spotting scope, you’re unlikely to be in the market for another—we test spotters only every two or three years. Low-Light Performance We also measure the low-light performance of each submission by mounting them to tripods and focusing them at 200 yards at a black-and-white resolution target at twilight, all in order to measure the brightness of the glass. The scope that can “see” the longest into the gathering darkness gets top marks. The scope that loses its night-vision earliest gets the lowest score. Scopes in the middle receive scores somewhere between those two poles. How We Score and Grade Optics We break our 10-point scoring into four general categories

Banteng (South Pacific) Bos javanicus DESCRIPTION (male) Shoulder height 52 inches (132 cm). Weight about 1,100 pounds (500 kg). Females are smaller and slimmer than males. The banteng is a good-sized ox, closely related to the gaur, but smaller and lighter, with a less developed dorsal ridge, relatively longer legs, a more elongated head and smaller ears. The tail is tufted and reaches below the hocks, and there is an imperfectly developed dewlap. Banteng found in Australia are handsome animals of the Javan type. Young bulls are reddish-brown until about age three, becoming blackish-brown or black when fully mature, the blackish coloration progressing from front to back. Very old bulls may turn gray. There is a large white rump patch that contrasts sharply with the color of the body. It extends to-but does not include-the root of the tail. The lower legs have white "stockings" from knee to hoof. The horns are relatively short and slim, round in cross section, more or less wrinkled ne

African Wildcat (Africa) Felis silvestris lybica DESCRIPTION (male) Head and body length 21-26 inches (545-665 mm). Tail 11-14 inches (275-360 mm). Weight 9-14 pounds (4-6 kg). (female) Head & body length 18-24 inches (460-620 mm). Tail 10-14 inches (255-355 mm). Weight 5-11 pounds (2.3-5.0 kg). Females have four pairs of teats. The African wildcat is generally recognized as the ancestor of the domestic cat (Felis catus) and often interbreeds with it. The two species are similar in size and appearance and can be difficult to identify in the field; however, there are two features that distinguish purebred wildcats from domestic cats and hybrids. In the wildcat, the backs of the ears are a rich reddish-brown, while domestic cats and hybrids usually have dark gray or black-backed ears, with perhaps a little red. A second feature is the wildcat's long legs. When a wildcat sits upright, its long front legs raise the body almost to the vertical, a position that is nearly impossible for dome

THEN AND NOW -- Was sorting through old photos today and came across a b/w 1974 photo taken in our Fort Wayne home's family room where several of my bowhunting mounts were being displayed. The mountain lion (1970) and black bear (1971) rugs, as well as the whitetail mount (1963), represent my first record book big game animals. The color photo shows a portion of our Indiana Cattail Valley home's Memory Room and entryway where a few more mounts remind me of other unforgettable bowhunts I've made during my decades as BOWHUNTER Magazine Editor/Founder. Feature articles about each North American adventure have been published in ARCHERY, OUTDOOR LIFE and, of course, the magazine my partners and I created and first printed in the summer of 1971. Can't help but wonder how many of today's friends and followers have read some of published features. Any favorite or memorable tale that stood out. Just a bit curious as I reflect on my professional writing and bowhunting career that now spans 60-

The name “raccoon” comes to us from the Indian word “Arakun”, which translates as “scratching with his own hands.” Raccoons are predatory mammals. Raccoon dogs are close relatives of raccoons (they are often confused with raccoons). How big is the raccoon? The length of its body is usually 45-60 cm. The average weight of a raccoon, depending on the species, can vary from 2-5 to 8-15 kg. Moreover, males are often larger than females. The structure of a raccoon’s body is a bit like a fox or a dog. The raccoon’s paws are an important distinguishing feature of these animals; they have very elongated pads, even reminiscent of human hands. So all raccoons have excellent grasping abilities. Raccoons easily climb on trees and can manipulate various small objects. The raccoon’s tail is long and usually fluffy. As for the color, all raccoons have a grayish-brown color, and their tail is painted with transverse black and white stripes. The raccoon’s head is very wide, has a short and sharp mu

« Un chien perdu depuis 4 jours retrouvé à l’aide d’un drone à La Balme de Thuy » 😲 Alors qu’il participait à une partie de chasse samedi 19 octobre, M. Genans-Boiteux perd la trace de son jeune compagnon, nommé Usky, un Bruno du Jura de tout juste un an, encore en plein apprentissage. Après de longs jours de recherche, les chasseurs, désespérés, ont sollicité l’aide de la fédération. Certains agents sont formés et diplômés pour l’utilisation de drones équipés de caméra thermique. Mardi 22 octobre, Alexis Vautrin , technicien à la fédération s’est porté volontaire pour tenter de retrouver l’animal. Après 2 kilomètres de piste forestière en 4x4 puis 30 minutes d’efforts pour rejoindre la zone à pied, quelques secondes de survol suffirent pour qu’un point de chaleur soit détecté grâce à la caméra thermique de l’aéronef… C’était lui ! Vivant, debout, immobile, semblant désorienté et fatigué. C’est alors que la deuxième phase a débuté : le sauvetage. Les pompiers du (Groupe Montagne

Hunting in Upper Nile: Ecology, Traditional Pursuits, and Species Variety Geography and Natural Features in the Upper Nile Upper Nile, situated in the northeastern corner of South Sudan, is a land defined by rivers, wetlands, and flat savanna plains. It is traversed by the White Nile and flanked by the Sobat and Baro rivers, forming a fertile landscape with expansive floodplains and seasonally inundated grasslands. These features support a wide variety of wildlife and create prime hunting terrain, especially in areas where dense vegetation and open clearings intersect. The alternating wet and dry seasons shape both the movement of game and the strategies used by hunters. Demographics Upper Nile is primarily inhabited by Shilluk, Dinka, Nuer, and other Nilotic communities, many of whom practice agro-pastoralism. Hunting is traditionally a supplemental activity that provides meat, hides, and community bonding experiences. While trophy or commercial hunting is nonexistent, local hunti
