Pulsar XP50 Trail LRF Thermal Scope Review I've had the opportunity to use the Pulsar XP50 Trail LRF thermal scope, and I would like to share my honest thoughts on its performance and features. First and foremost, the image quality of the XP50 Trail is exceptional. The 640x480 resolution sensor provides crisp and clear images, even in low-light conditions. The ability to detect animals at significant distances is impressive, making it an invaluable tool for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts who rely on thermal imaging. The integrated laser rangefinder is a standout feature. It allows you to quickly and accurately gauge distances, which is crucial for accurate shot placement. This capability enhances the overall usability of the scope and ensures you can make informed decisions during your hunts. The design of the XP50 Trail is solid and robust, built to withstand various environmental conditions. Whether you're navigating through rain or snow, the scope's weather-resistant construct

England and Wales law on foxhunting unworkable, says police chief <strong>Trail</strong> hunts used as a loophole for unlawful chasing and killing of animals, Matt Longma

England and Wales law on foxhunting unworkable, says police chief Trail hunts used as a loophole for unlawful chasing and killing of animals, Matt Longman tells campaigners England’s most senior police officer on foxhunting has said the law on the crime is not working because it permits trail hunts that have become a “smokescreen” for the continued illegal persecution of animals. Ch Supt Matt Longman, the National Police Chiefs’ Council lead on foxhunting, was speaking at the launch of a coalition against illegal hunting led by the League Against Cruel Sports and backed by more than 30 charities including the RSPCA. Longman, the police commander for Plymouth, said: “The Hunting Act is not working effectively and illegal hunting is still common practice.” Under the act, hunting mammals with hounds is banned but trail hunts using the scent of animals are allowed to take place. Longman said hunts were using trail hunts as a loophole to carry on hunting foxes and other animals. He said:

Buck Holes Search for what I call buck holes, which are tangles of honeysuckle or wild rose on ridges, cedar or pine thickets, brushy beaver swamps … you get the idea. A buck hole doesn’t have to be large or even remote — just a thick spot other hunters overlook. A grassy ditch near a back road, an overgrown hog lot behind an old barn or a similar neglected spot can hide a big buck. Scour an aerial map for such pockets or strips of cover. Check the edges of a thicket or swamp for trails pocked with big tracks. Look for rubs and late scrapes, which are signs that a buck has moved back in there to evade hunters and breed a last willing doe. When you find a mother lode of fresh sign, stop right there. You don’t want to bust into a small security area, put more heat on already wired deer and bust them out of there. It’s better to back off 100 yards or so and set up on a ridge or point where you can cover buck entry and exit routes into and out of cover.

Field Tested: Browning Trail Cameras Trail cameras serve two purposes: tracking and security. Slimline options do their best at remaining undetected to human beings who might be trespassing on your property, while larger, higher-definition models will draw the most detail out of whatever sets it off. Earlier this year, my wife and I obtained an eight-acre piece of property that has remained untouched for nearly a decade. As such, it has become a bit of a sanctuary for animals that run off from the adjacent state game lands abutting its corner. Property of this nature is often desirable, as it typically makes for an easy hunt due to its long vacancy. However, for the same reason, it becomes attractive to those that want to have a private hunting experience without paying for land of their own. With that in mind, I scoured Browning’s website to find affordable cameras to serve my purposes, and came up with the Strike Force Gen 5 and the Dark Ops HD Max.Features The features on both came

Bear meat vending machine proves popular in north Japan city. SEMBOKU, Akita -- From kimchi to insects, Japan's love affair with vending machines continues, and at a shinkansen station here, one machine is gaining popularity for another unusual offering -- bear meat. The vending machine is installed near the entrance to the Tazawako Ichi local product shop near JR Tazawako Station, where the Akita Shinkansen and other trains stop. The meat of locally captured wild bears is mainly purchased by bullet train passengers, and there have apparently also been inquiries from people in the Kanto region around Tokyo who want to buy it by mail order. The machine displays pictures of lean and fatty meat, with a sign saying, "open 24 hours," "black bear," "bear meat" and "2,200 yen (about $17) for 250 grams."

Idaho reports "slightly above average" survival rates in mule deer and elk In Idaho, mule deer fawn and elk calf survival rates were up, following the latest data collected from animals outfitted with tracking collars. To date, 84% of fawns and 92% of calves have survived through the end of winter, putting their statewide winter survival rate “slightly above average,” according to the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG). “From a statewide perspective, winter survival is tracking very close to what we saw in past two years,” said Toby Boudreau, IDFG deer and elk program coordinator. “If we continue on that trajectory, that's good news because we ended up with above-average winter survival in both 2019-20 and 2020-21. And every mild winter we can stack together is another step in the right direction for our mule deer herds.” Currently, there are 222 mule deer fawns and 201 elk calves outfitted with tracking collars.

That means deer (primarily red deer, roe deer, and fallow deer), wild boar, and, in some regions, elk or moose. They are not typically used for birds, small game, or predators.

Here, the climate is harsh: long dry seasons, short erratic rains, and a landscape marked by thorn scrub, fading grass, and scattered acacia trees.

It borders the Central African Republic and the Republic of the Congo, creating a continuous belt of tropical forest that ranks among the richest in biodiversity in Central Africa.

Hunting in Omaheke, Namibia: Wildlife diversity, seasons, regulations, geography, population of hunters, distinctive traits, insights, hunter organizations, traditions Wildlife diversity and types of hunting The Omaheke Region offers hunters an exceptional diversity of wildlife across its vast 86,480 square kilometers of pristine wilderness. This eastern Namibian territory, where the Kalahari Desert's red sands meet open plains and thornveld, provides ideal habitats for an impressive array of game species. Trophy hunters frequently pursue majestic kudu, resilient gemsbok (oryx), massive eland, and Namibia's iconic springbok - the national animal that thrives in these arid conditions. For those seeking smaller challenges, duiker, steenbok, jackal, and warthog present exciting opportunities, while wing-shooting enthusiasts can test their skills against francolin, guineafowl, and sandgrouse. The region's most formidable predators - leopard and cheetah - may be hunted under strictly cont

The Long Game There is still no cure for CWD, and unfortunately, the short-term outlook isn’t positive. Yet CWD won’t seriously affect herd numbers until a sufficiently high percentage of deer contract it, and that just hasn’t happened yet in most places. Each summer, I get excellent trail camera photos of outwardly healthy whitetails meandering through the hills and valleys of our farm, masking the CWD issues at hand. We still have high deer densities and mostly healthy looking whitetails, with no signs of a population decline. I asked Sumners when we might see whitetail populations decline in southern Wisconsin. “In areas like that, with such a large population of deer, the proportion of the population that will have to die from CWD for the average hunter to see a visible decline would have to be significant," he said. "It’s a numbers game, and we haven’t gotten to the point of the disease where population decline is occurring.” Still, knowing what we know, we’re torn about how to

Exploring the Kavango East Region of Namibia: Landscape, wildlife, hunter population, timelines, legal framework, cultural aspects, insights, organizations, traits Landscape and natural characteristics for hunting Kavango East, covering roughly 48,790 square kilometers, is a region defined by its unique geography and natural characteristics that make it an exceptional hunting destination.

Trinidad and Tobago There is a very active tradition of hunting small to medium-sized wild game in Trinidad and Tobago. Hunting is carried out with firearms, slingshots and cage traps, and sometimes aided by the use of hounds. The illegal use of trap guns and snare nets also occurs. With approximately 12,000 to 13,000 hunters applying for and being granted hunting permits in recent years, there is some concern that the practice might not be sustainable. In addition there are at present no bag limits and the open season is comparatively very long (5 months – October to February inclusive). As such hunting pressure from legal hunters is very high. Added to that, there is a thriving and very lucrative black market for poached wild game (sold and enthusiastically purchased as expensive luxury delicacies) and the numbers of commercial poachers in operation is unknown but presumed to be fairly high. As a result, the populations of the five major mammalian game species (red-rumped agouti, low
