Flinders Ranges Hunting Calendar: When the Ancient Landscape Calls - Goats, Deer and Mountain Game Pursuits Hunting Regulations & Seasonal Framework in the Flinders Rang

Flinders Ranges Hunting Calendar: When the Ancient Landscape Calls - Goats, Deer and Mountain Game Pursuits Hunting Regulations & Seasonal Framework in the Flinders Ranges The Flinders Ranges operate under South Australia's National Parks and Wildlife Act with year-round hunting permitted for feral goats, pigs, foxes and rabbits on private properties and designated crown lands. Deer (primarily fallow) have an established season from March to October, while kangaroo harvesting requires commercial tags. The semi-arid climate with extreme temperature variations (summer highs of 45°C, winter lows of -5°C) creates distinct hunting windows - most activity occurs April-September. Unlike the nearby Murray Mallee region, the Flinders Ranges maintain special restrictions in gorges and water catchments due to fragile ecosystems. Recent reforms include mandatory GPS coordinates for all harvested feral goats (2023) and complete bans on lead ammunition within 5km of permanent water sources. The 20

Private property owners sue over Virginia’s hunting dog law WILSONS, Va. — Soon after Jim Medeiros bought his 143-acre (58-hectare) cattle and poultry farm in rural Virginia a decade ago, he and his wife were startled by the sounds of 20 hunting dogs barking and howling as they circled their house and chased their chickens When Medeiros confronted a hunter nearby, the man told him he had permission to hunt on Medeiros’ property. In disbelief, Medeiros called the agency that enforces a state law allowing hunters to retrieve their hunting dogs from private property, even when the property owners object. “He told me, you can’t prohibit people from coming onto your land,” recalled Medeiros. He then pointed out that his land was posted with no trespassing signs. “I said, ‘You don’t understand. My land is posted,'” Medeiros said. You don’t understand,” the official responded. “You can’t stop them.” After years of putting up with baying dogs and dead chickens, Medeiros and several other prope

EUROPEAN HUNT The European Hunt is the perfect fit for those looking for a unique and challenging pheasant hunting experience. It also provides an alternative for those not able to field hunt. The course is set near the top of small hill in the midst of a pasture. The hunt is comprised of 16 shooters positioned at eight blinds. The blinds are ~60 yards apart and encircle a concealed tower from which pheasants are released. There are two shooters at each blind, safely separated by hay bales. Cub Creek Hunting guides and guide dogs are positioned behind the blinds, ready to retrieve each harvested bird. Large evergreens dominate the landscape, making each shot unpredictable and unique. Hunters rotate through each station twice, ensuring an abundance of shooting from all directions. A beverage break during the middle of the hunt allows hunters to trade stories and prepare for the final round. A hearty meal is served at noon prior to the hunt.

Loch Ness Monster: Fossil discovery suggests mythical creature may have once existed For more than a century, legions of tourists have hunted for ‘Nessie’, a huge marine creature rumoured to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. While many lake-goers have claimed sightings of the monster, all supposed photographs of the beast have been debunked. But new evidence suggests that Nessie may once have existed. Is the Loch Ness monster real? The popular image of Nessie - with a long neck and a tiny head - is based on ‘small plesiosaurs’, marine dinosaurs that went extinct 65 million years ago. Scientists thought these creatures could only live in the ocean. But according to UK and Moroccan scientists, they may have been able to survive in fresh water. These researchers have discovered the fossils of small plesiosaurs in a 100-million-year-old river system now part of the Sahara. “We don’t really know why the plesiosaurs are in fresh water,” said Dr Nick Longrich from the Univers

How to keep your pet summer fit. A veterinarian who sits at Pet Mall and Murphy Veterinary Hospital in GD Block and Pooches N More in Lake Town, shares tips on pet care. 1. Walks- Keep the temperature in mind when walking your pets. Given how hot it has been getting, it is advised to walk them early in the morning or late in the evening. This will help prevent heat strokes and footpad burning. If they undergo excessive panting it is better to keep them indoors. Keep them in air-conditioned rooms as per the requirement of the day. 2. Drinking water- Ample clean drinking water should be provided to your pet to avoid dehydration. 3. Ticks and fleas- Ectoparasites, especially ticks and fleas, are a big threat in summer months. Ticks belonging to the genus Rhipicephalusare are most commonly encountered here. Ehrlichiacanis, Hepatozooncanis, Mycoplasma hemocanis, Anaplasmaplatys, Babesiavogeli and Babesiagibsoniare the most common tick-borne pathogens present in our country. Concurrent i

Shotguns, Bows & Fool Hens by E. Donnall Thomas Jr. Although the termination dust had yet to fall, it was the kind of September day that demands the acknowledgement of the seasons’ passage. Although fresh silvers were still entering the streams, the heart of the fishing season lay behind me. Bull moose were starting to round up their cows, and lines of migrating geese undulated against the crisp, azure sky. Since I’d been in Alaska long enough to know what lay just around the corner, I felt determined to wring as much experience as possible from the outdoors before the sun disappeared and winter seized the North Country in its icy grip. And on that particular day, I meant to do it with my shotgun. If I had nothing else with me as I walked out the door of our remote Kenai Peninsula home, I certainly enjoyed plenty of confidence in my dog. I regarded Skykomish as the best hunting Lab I’ve ever owned, and the passage of three more decades—and a number of very good retrievers—has yet to

Picking Your Puppy: Traits to Look for in Your Next Hunting Dog Are You Looking for a Hunting Dog Puppy? You wouldn’t walk into a sporting goods store and purchase the first shotgun you saw without doing some background research first, so why then would you skip that step when selecting a puppy that you’ll be hunting with for the next 10 to 12 years? Many hunters make that mistake and end up regretting later. In addition to being your most valuable hunting asset, your hunting dog is likely to become your closest companion. Not only will it share some of the best moments of your life with you, it’ll make many of them possible. You’ll spend hours with your dog during training and in the field, so you want to take great care in choosing the puppy that is perfect for you. Tim Nichols of Fall Flight Retrievers says not every puppy has what it takes to become an outstanding hunting dog.

Hunters From California report that a safe is good when it really saves. Wildfires in Southern California are a frequent phenomenon, one might say, as common as winter snow in Alaska. The "dry season" lasts an average of six months without any raindrop. Dry grass or forest catches fire, and the wind spreads the flames like lightning. There is not enough fresh water in California. Households often limit their water consumption. It is forbidden to grow vegetables on the territory of the house, because they need to be watered. These problems have been around for many, many years. WHY is the scale of fires increasing every year? And why did the fire take on the scale of a national disaster in January 2025? Experts compete to calculate the damage. The damage caused by fires in Los Angeles today already amounts to 135-150 billion dollars. Someone claims 200 billion or even more. Everyone is discussing the cost of celebs and politicians houses that were burned down or remained unharmed.

Day 2 of 5. Oklahoma. I packed up camp on the lake and headed to the river. The water was all the way up to 52 degrees after being in the low 30s the week before! I setup on a deep hole (20ft. deep) with a big inside eddy. I caught a 3 pound dinner cat within 2 minutes of setting up, then another small fish 2 minutes after that, then this surprise January Flathead about 5 minutes later! 3 fish within the first 15 minutes was a great start then it died down. After a couple hours and some missed bites I put 2 rods on the downstream side of the hole in about 6 feet of water and shortly after I got a good blue! I had fried catfish for dinner and slept like a baby with no bites the rest of the night. I love camping on the river and not just observing wildlife but being apart of it. From Coyotes howling to wild pigs squealing to big blue cats biting the crap out of me I love it!

Fishing in Costa Rica: Dancing the Jig with Costa Rican Monsters The volcanic reefs off the coast of Costa Rica remind me of a haunted house. They are dark with all kinds of nooks, crannies, and pinnacles to hide in, or seek a quick escape. There could be a monster around every corner sitting at an ambush point. Grouper hang close to the bottom. A variety of snapper and big Almaco jacks cruise just above them patrolling the water column. African Pompano and Bluefin trevally are mixed with them. Above all that large schools of jack crevalle and barracuda circle like a wagon train waiting for a school of bonito or other baitfish to arrive. Mark Davis has a knack for fooling these monsters. He needs to. As host of one of the most popular fishing shows on television, Big Water Adventures, he is expected to produce. He rarely lets his audience down.

Meet Max, my loyal hunting companion. From the moment we set foot in the forest, Max’s excitement is palpable. His keen senses and unwavering loyalty make every hunting trip an adventure. 🐕✨ One crisp autumn morning, we ventured deep into the woods, the air filled with the scent of pine and the rustle of leaves. Max, with his nose to the ground, led the way. Suddenly, he froze, his ears perked up. I knew he had found something. 🦌🍂 Following his lead, we moved silently through the underbrush. Max’s instincts were spot on; we spotted a majestic deer grazing in a clearing. With a steady hand and a calm breath, I took the shot. Max’s tail wagged furiously as he retrieved our prize. 🏹🌿 But it’s not just about the hunt. It’s about the bond we share, the trust we build, and the memories we create. Max isn’t just a hunting dog; he’s my partner, my friend, and my greatest ally in the wild. 🐾❤️ Here’s to many more adventures with my best friend by my side. 🥂🌲 #HuntingCompanion #Wi

The best ways to keep your pets cool this summer A lot of us are excited about the warmer temperatures, which means more time outside with our furry friends. Experts say to keep our pets safe from the heat, walk your dog early in the morning or later in the evening when the temperatures are cooler. Limit their time outside when it’s especially hot out and keep them hydrated. Never leave your dog inside the car, even if you have a quick trip inside a store. A car can heat up quickly in just a few minutes. We have shoes to protect our feet but our pets don’t have that option, so don’t walk them on the hot pavement which can badly burn their paws. Instead, walk in grassy areas. If they are overheated, cool them off underneath their armpits, chest, and ears. If they will drink water, give them lukewarm, not ice-cold water because you don’t want to shock their system and get them to a vet as soon as possible. If it’s just simply too hot for those walks, there are plenty of ways to giv

When the boats are running and the sun is hot, you can still count on getting bites with this efficient finesse rig By now, most bass anglers are familiar with the drop-shot rig. Two decades have passed since the tactic first hit the fishing scene. The drop-shot’s origins are in Japan, where finesse-fishing gurus perfected the technique and later shared it with West Coast anglers facing tough fishing conditions in the clear waters of California. The drop-shot quickly answered the prayers of bass anglers struggling to get a bite. Then the drop-shot moved east, proving its effectiveness through the country’s midsection and into the Great Lakes. It was here that the drop-shot, which allows bottom contact even in the roughest waters, gained steam among smallmouth bass anglers. Personally, I fished the drop-shot rig to over a quarter-million dollars in tournament earnings during my tenure as a competitive angler on Lake Erie in the early 2000s. Then, nothing came close to the rig’s effec
