Today, 14 February, in Orthodox calendar is the day of the Holy Tryphon, especially revered in Russia. The holy martyr is highly revered by Russian hunters, being their patron saint. He was depicted on icons with a falcon on his arm, and originally he was on the coat of arms of Moscow. There is a legend that under Tsar John the Terrible, during the royal hunt, the king's beloved gyrfalcon flew away. The tsar ordered the falconer Trifon Patrikeev to find the bird that had flown away. Falconer Trifon toured the surrounding forests, but without success. On the third day, tired of a long search, he stopped near Moscow, in a place now called Maryina Grove, and in exhaustion lay down to rest, having fervently prayed to his patron saint, the martyr Tryphon, asking him for help. In a dream, he saw a young man on a white horse holding a royal gyrfalcon, and this young man said: "Take the missing bird, go with God to the king and don't worry about anything." Upon waking up, the falconer actual

Caza en Ñuble: Diversidad de Presas, Tradición Mapuche y Aventuras entre Bosques y Volcanes Características geográficas y naturales: ecosistemas que cobijan a las presas La región de Ñuble tiene una superficie de unos 13.800 kilómetros cuadrados y está dividida en tres provincias: Diguillín, Itata y Punilla. Aquí se entrelazan cordilleras andinas (incluyendo volcanes como el Sollipulli), densos bosques (naturales y plantaciones de pino y eucalipto) y fértiles valles. Este ecosistema diverso crea condiciones ideales para la vida silvestre. El clima de la región es templado-marino, con veranos secos (diciembre-febrero) e inviernos lluviosos (junio-agosto), lo que afecta a la actividad de los animales. Por ejemplo, los jabalíes suelen ir a zonas abiertas durante los meses secos y las aves emigran a masas de agua en otoño.

A breaching humpback whale knocked two kayakers into the water near Avila Beach, California. No one was injured in the capsize, according to reports. This footage, recorded by Mandy Boyle, shows the moment the huge mammal breaches the water's surface and knocks over the kayak with two people in it. Boyle said both the kayakers were unharmed and quickly returned to the surface, but harbor officials said the two kayakers were lucky to be alive. Humpback whales are known to be active near the California coast year-round, and officials advise people to keep a football field's distance between themselves and whales when possible to avoid situations such as a capsize. A humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) is highly unlikely to eat a kayaker—or even attempt to do so. Humpback whales are not predators of humans or large mammals, and their diet consists almost entirely of small marine organisms such as krill, plankton, and small fish like herring or anchovies. Here's why they wouldn't ea

An Inuit hunter stands over a dead polar bear. November 26, 1924, USA The Inuit are an ethnic group of indigenous peoples of North America living in the vast northern territories of Canada from the Labrador Peninsula to the mouth of the Mackenzie River, as well as in Alaska. One of the main activities of the Inuit is hunting wild animals. Inuit have made a living from hunting on land, on the sea, on the ice. Through time, marine mammals, terrestrial mammals, fish and birds have been the basis of food and clothing, light and heat, tools and means of transportation, such as dog sleds, kayaks and large skin boats. That way all Inuit live was evolved with the hunting culture. The sustenance of families and settlements has relied heavily on favourable hunting conditions and successful catches. Hunting has therefore traditionally been a key focal point in the organisation of Arctic communities, where roles and responsibilities have been defined by hunting activities. Hunting itself has

Our country encompasses a wide range of biomes: desert, high mountains, highlands, tropical and temperate forests, swamplands, plains, grasslands, areas surrounding rivers, as well as an island archipelago. It hosts four biodiversity hotspots: the Himalayas, the Western Ghats, the Indo-Burma region and Sundaland. These hotspots have numerous endemic species. Here are some of the rare and exotic wildlife species native to India. Lion-tailed macaque Lion-tailed macaques live in tropical rainforests throughout southern India.

Inuit (Aleutian) in a park made from the insides of a sea lion. Nome, Alaska. The year is 1900. Arctic hunters most often make trousers and shoes from the skins of marine mammals, and outerwear from deer skins and warm it with fox, squirrel or arctic fox fur. Among the hunters of Chukotka, rovduga is widely used – suede made of elk or deer skins. Eskimos and Aleutian sea hunters sew unique, authentic waterproof camel lace anoraks. We all use lightweight waterproof raincoats. No fisherman or hunter can do without them, mushroom pickers and outdoor vacationers always take raincoats with them. Modern raincoats are made of plastic or a special impregnated material. However, among the northern peoples, such cloaks are made from natural materials, from the insides of walruses, seals and sea lions. Kamlot is a blind shirt with a hood (anorak), which was usually worn as an upper layer on fur coats or jackets, and sea St. John's wort - for hunting. Such a shirt was made from the insides and

The nilgai antelope “Blue Bull” • Native to India and Pakistan. The second largest antelope species in the world! • I took the Marlin Model 1895 Guide Gun to the Rio Grande Valley of Texas to hunt the very special and and majestic ecosystem along the coastline known as the El Sauz, managed by the East Foundation. This nearly 30,000 acre free range property managed for their cattle operation is teaming with wildlife, and its range though excellent for the cattle also provides perfect habitat for the Nilgai. • As part of the properties management plan for its cattle, Wildlife Systems manages the nilgai which happen to be direct competition for the cattle, and due to their size they equally require the same range and food source that the cattle require • Using the lever gun in 45-70 topped with a Trijicon Credo 1-6x24 scope and using Hornady Leverevolution Ammo in 325gr FTX was perfect for this hunt. These bulls are big! And it takes a heavy grained bullet to bust the heavy should
