Grand Canyon Won't Seek Volunteers to Kill Bison This Fall Grand Canyon National Park has decided not to extend a pilot project this fall that used volunteers to kill bison to downsize the herd. By FELICIA FONSECA, Associated Press FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — A bison herd that lives almost exclusively in the northern reaches of Grand Canyon National Park won't be targeted for lethal removal there this fall. The park used skilled volunteers selected through a highly competitive and controversial lottery last year to kill bison, part of a toolset to downsize the herd that's been trampling meadows and archaeological sites on the canyon's North Rim. Introducing the sound of gunfire and having people close to the bison was meant to nudge the massive animals back to the adjacent forest where they legally could be hunted. But the efforts had little effect. “They just kind of moved a bit from where the activity occurred, and sometimes they'd come back the next day,” said Grand Canyon wildfire

Det 19. - tidlige 20. århundrede er en æra, der trådte ind i det russiske imperiums historie som en tid, hvor videnskabsmænd, kunstnere og forfattere rejste på rejser på jagt efter videnskabelige materialer og indtryk. En af repræsentanterne for russiske rejseskribenter var Vasily Ivanovich Nemirovich-Danchenko (1844–1936). Han begyndte at rejse fra nord - fra skovene i Lapland og Hvidehavet, og sejlede derefter fra Nizhny Novgorod til Det Kaspiske Hav; senere rejste han til andre steder i det russiske imperium. Hans "arkiv" rummer unikke udenlandsrejser, og blandt dem skiller rejser i Nordafrika og Middelhavsregionerne sig ud. Denne forfatters bøger er så ejendommelige, at samtidige og kritikere nogle gange havde en negativ holdning til denne person, der rejser for egen regning og derfor forbliver helt fri både på vejen og i litterære linjer.

Blaser: История инноваций в мире охотничьего оружия от 1957 года до наших дней С 1957 года Blaser создает ружья, которые перевернули представление о точности, надежности и эргономике. В этой статье — ключевые даты, технологии и модели, сделавшие бренд фаворитом профессиональных охотников и спортсменов. Основание и ранние годы (1957–1980) Компания Blaser Jagdwaffen основана в Исни-им-Алльгой (Германия) оружейным инженером Хорстом Блазером. Первые годы бренд занимался ремонтом и модернизацией оружия, но уже к 1960-м начал выпуск собственных моделей: - 1962 — производство нарезных стволов для винтовок Mauser. - 1974 — слияние с J.P. Sauer & Sohn, что позволило расширить линейку охотничьего оружия. В 1980-х Blaser сосредоточился на разработке революционных систем перезарядки, которые позже стали его визитной карточкой.

Viruset rabies skyldes et retrovirus fra Rhabdoviridae-familien, der angriber centralnervesystemet hos pattedyr. Det overføres normalt gennem bid fra inficerede dyr, ofte gennem bid fra strejfdyr som hunde, ræve, katte og andre pattedyr. Rabies er en alvorlig og dødelig sygdom, hvis ikke behandling påbegyndes straks efter mulig infektion. Forebyggelse af rabies omfatter flere centrale punkter: Vaccination: Regelmæssig vaccination af kæledyr mod rabies er en effektiv måde at forhindre infektion på. Dette er især vigtigt for hunde og katte. Undgå kontakt med vilde dyr: Rør ikke ved vilde eller strejfdyr, især hvis de opfører sig aggressivt eller mærkeligt. Behandling af bid: Hvis du bliver bidt af et dyr (især et vildt eller ukendt dyr), skal du straks søge lægehjælp for at vurdere infektionsrisikoen og muligvis modtage rabiesprofylakse. Undgå illegal indførsel af kæledyr: Hvis du rejser eller transporterer kæledyr over grænser, skal du følge indførselsreglerne og kontrollere rabie

Austrian regions allow controversial wolf hunting Vienna (AFP) – Several regions of Austria have allowed the controversial killing of wolves after reporting an increase in livestock attacks, sparking debate in the Alpine EU member. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) says the orders to kill the wolves violate European law, which lists them as protected animals. In the southern province of Carinthia, five wolves have been killed so far this year under legislation introduced in January. The killing of eight more has been authorised, according to authorities. Neighbouring Tyrol, known for cattle grazing freely on mountain pastures, has authorised the killing of six wolves -- yet to be carried out -- under a decree from February, according to province spokesman Maximilian Brandhuber. "Time and again wolves are sighted near settlements and kill livestock," he told AFP this week, adding that evidence of their presence has "risen sharply since 2019."

Controversial spring bear hunt up for debate in Washington The Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission will hear a report Friday on potential changes to the 2022 spring bear hunt season. However, several conservation groups said special permits to hunt black bears in the spring should not be issued at all. The groups said the hunts cruelly kill bears just as they’ve emerged from hibernation with cubs in tow. “There's a reason why we don't hunt any other species during the spring – other than turkeys – because spring is an important time for all species in which they're recovering from the winter,” said Claire Loebs Davis, board president, Washington Wildlife First, a conservation group. After hibernation, Loebs Davis said, bears are on the verge of starvation, making the bears sluggish, slow and easy to kill. “Starvation is forcing them into clearings and in areas where the only food is available – where they are easy for hunters to find and shoot,” she said. As bears emerge from

Taxidermy: Turning Your Kill into a Lasting Trophy Taxidermy isn't just stuffing an animal; it's an art and a science. It's about recreating a lifelike representation of your kill, preserving the memory of the hunt for years to come. Why Bother with Taxidermy? Respect: You put in the time, skill, and effort. A mount is a way to respect the animal and the hunt. Memories: It's a tangible reminder of the hunt: the stalk, the shot, the terrain. A mount brings those memories flooding back. Bragging Rights: Let's be honest, it's a conversation starter. A well-done mount is a testament to your skill as a hunter. Decoration: It adds a unique and rugged aesthetic to your cabin, man cave, or home. Choosing a Taxidermist: Don't Skimp This is where you can't afford to cut corners. A bad taxidermist can ruin a trophy. Here's what to look for: Experience: How long have they been in the game? Look for a taxidermist with years of experience.

US hunters catch and shoot dead gigantic 14-foot 'once-in-a-lifetime' alligator A 14-foot "once in a lifetime" alligator has been killed by hunters in the US. Two hunters shot dead the mighty kill - a male weighing an enormous 781lb (345kg) - in the swamps of Texas. In a celebratory Facebook post, Wildlife Management Area official James E Dauhtrey congratulated the hunters on their kill while detailing the beast's specifications. The picture shows the "once-in-a-lifetime gator" lying on the floor with a wooden stick holding open its crushing jaws. In the comments, fellow hunters hailed the "awesome harvest" and "huge" prize. The beast falls just behind the largest alligator ever caught, which was 15.9ft long and seized by an Alabama woman in 2014. Males tend to grow to around 11.2ft long. Just last month two brothers caught a female alligator on Mississippi's Pearl River which was thought to be 100-years-old. Officials said on Twitter that the creature broke the state record f

How Do You Start Squirrel Hunting? There are no large requirements that are needed to start hunting squirrels. If you have a strong desire to capture, you may choose the small game rodent as a starting point. They are mainly the best to hunt because they are available in every tree crotch and almost every season, especially the winter. Most states require you to have a license if you want to hunt the rodents legally. The grant is for the small game residents, and squirrels qualify as part of them. You can kill them using an air rifle, shotgun, or shot rifle. To begin your hunting experience, you can make your way to the trees or bushes in the mid-mornings or the late afternoon. Wait for the squirrels, and you will have your first kill within minutes Squirrel Hunting Tips The little creatures may be abundant, but hunting them is not an easy task as it seems. Some essential tips that will ensure your outdoor experience is successfully are explained below: 1. Know where to hunt Yo

Why We Hunt - An Ancient Activity Hunting is an ancient human activity. As such it means experiencing an original way of life in unspoiled nature. Hunting can be the purest form of eco-tourism. And yes, of course we enjoy hunting. Of course we enjoy the thrill of a stalk. Yes, of course we enjoy the adrenalin rush when facing a wild un-collared lion. There is nothing wrong with that, these are inherent components of our own nature. City people seem to have forgotten that man can and should be part of nature. And above all, the laws of hunter and hunted are the very foundation on which nature rests. If we still want nature – and that is the principle decision mankind has to take – we have to understand and accept it as it is; and true, honest hunting is the very school of life.... But we don’t enjoy killing. We have to kill to have hunted. And when at times we have to kill, we try to do so clean and quick and painless. At the same time death is part of life – it is not always easy

С 12 по 15 мая в Марокко собрались охотники, рыбаки и те, кто не разменивается на туристические буклеты. Что было: • Охота с луком и стендовая стрельба — проверка меткости • “No-kill” рыбалка — не по мне, но интересно глянуть • Снаряжение, оптика, оружие — от мировых брендов до местных мастеров • Общение без фильтров — обсуждали законы, делились трофеями, обменивались байками • Природа — горы, озёра, воздух как чистая вода Организаторы заморочились: привезли делегации из Штатов, Англии, Испании,Беларуси, России, Франции, Китая и других стран. Было не про «защиту среды», а про реальных людей, которые знают, что природа — это не игрушка, но и не картинка в музее.

Marine mammals such as whales and pinnipeds are also targets of hunting, both recreationally and commercially, often with heated controversies regarding the morality, ethics and legality of such practices. The pursuit, harvesting or catch and release of fish and aquatic cephalopods and crustaceans is called fishing, which however is widely accepted and not commonly categorised as a form of hunting, even though it essentially is. It is also not considered hunting to pursue animals without intent to kill them, as in wildlife photography, birdwatching, or scientific-research activities which involve tranquilizing or tagging of animals, although green hunting is still called so. The practices of netting or trapping insects and other arthropods for trophy collection, or the foraging or gathering of plants and mushrooms, are also not regarded as hunting.

Løven (lat. Panthera leo) er en art af rovpattedyr, en af ​​de fem repræsentanter for slægten Panthera (Panthera), som tilhører underfamilien af ​​store katte inden for kattefamilien. Sammen med tigeren er det den største nulevende kat; vægten af ​​nogle hanner kan nå op på 250 kg. Det er svært at sige med sikkerhed, om den største underart af løver er mere massiv end den største underart af tigre. Dette skyldes det faktum, at de kendte meget store masser af Amur-tigre generelt anses for at være utilstrækkeligt pålidelige. Videnskaben har ikke tilstrækkelige data om størrelsen og vægten af ​​repræsentanter for de største underarter af løver (for eksempel Barbary). Hvad angår dyr i fangenskab, er de ofte en blanding af forskellige underarter. Der er en opfattelse af, at løver i fangenskab er noget større end tigre i størrelse og masse, såvel som det modsatte.

Game licences to kill or take game are not required in England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland. However, in Scotland, a venison dealer’s licence is still required for those wishing to deal in venison although deer stalkers can sell their venison direct to a venison dealer without the need for a licence. On the Isle of Man a game licence is required in order to shoot game and is available from the Treasury Office. Game is defined as pheasant, partridge, grouse or moor game and hare (brown or common). A game dealer’s licence is also required for those wishing to deal in game. There is no requirement for a game licence on Guernsey but you must hold an appropriate firearm or shotgun certificate. In Jersey there are no game seasons and therefore a game licence is not required.

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." The bears are captured in the mountains of the city by members of a local hunting club and processed at a slaughterhouse. The vending machine was installed in November 2022 by people assoc

Pennsylvania Will Finally Allow Limited Sunday Deer Hunting. Pennsylvania deer hunters have reason to celebrate after lawmakers have done away with a “blue law,” which prohibited hunting on Sundays in the Keystone State for more than 100 years. Gov. Tom Wolf is expected to sign the law, which will allow hunters to hunt one Sunday during rifle season, one Sunday during archery season, and one Sunday to be determined by the Pennsylvania Game Commission. The law also requires hunters to have written permission to hunt private land on Sunday (oral permission is fine on the other six days of the week.) Of course, it’s still up to private landowners to decide whether to allow hunting on their property. Sunday deer hunting has been illegal in Pennsylvania since the 1800s, although there are exceptions for coyotes, foxes, crows and non-commercial game preserves. Blue laws date back to a time when lawmakers thought it was appropriate to encourage people to attend church on Sunday instead of

Choosing the Best Caliber for Whitetail Deer Hunting: Expert Guide for Serious Hunters. When it comes to whitetail deer hunting, choosing the right rifle caliber isn’t just a matter of preference—it’s the difference between a clean kill and a long, frustrating track job. Whether you’re hunting thick timber in Michigan or open plains in Kansas, your caliber choice must match your terrain, shooting distance, and personal comfort with recoil. This guide breaks down the most effective calibers for whitetail deer, based on real-world performance, ballistic data, and decades of field experience. --- 🎯 What Makes a Caliber “Best” for Whitetail? Before diving into specific cartridges, let’s define what “best” actually means in the field: • Knockdown Power: Minimum 800 ft-lbs of energy at impact is recommended for deer-sized game. • Manageable Recoil: Less than 20 ft-lbs of recoil helps avoid flinching and improves shot placement. • Accuracy: Flat trajectory and consistent performance at

Hunting has been a cornerstone of Mongolian culture for millennia. In the harsh and unforgiving environment of the Gobi Desert, hunting was not just a means of survival but also a way to hone the skills necessary for nomadic life. The ancient Mongols, including the warriors of Genghis Khan, were skilled hunters who relied on their ability to track and kill game to sustain their families and armies. In Dundgovi Province, hunting traditions are deeply rooted in the local way of life.

Bear hunting Hunting bears is a thrilling yet demanding pursuit that requires careful planning and respect for nature. Several methods are employed to increase the chances of a successful hunt. One popular technique is hunting over oats, where hunters attract bears with bait. Another effective method is hunting from a tower, allowing for a broader view and improved accuracy. Utilizing trained Laikas can also enhance tracking, as these dogs are excellent companions in the field. Many hunters choose to hunt during the night, when bears are more active, while hunting over bait remains a common practice. The bear hunting season varies by region, so it's crucial to verify local regulations. When it comes to weaponry, rifles and shotguns are often preferred, with proper caliber selection critical to ensure a humane kill. Safety is paramount; always wear appropriate gear, inform others of your hunting plans, and carry bear spray as a precaution. Remember to adhere to hunting rules: obtai

Just stumbled upon some old photos in my archive and couldn't help but reminisce about my first hunting experience. It was a mix of excitement, nerves, and anticipation all rolled into one. The early morning start, the scent of the woods, the thrill of the chase – it was a feeling like no other. As I look back on those moments captured in those snapshots, I can't help but feel grateful for the opportunity to connect with nature in such a raw and primal way. The camaraderie with fellow hunters, the quiet moments of solitude, the satisfaction of a successful hunt – it's all part of the experience. Hunting isn't just about the kill; it's about the journey, the memories made, and the lessons learned along the way. It's a chance to disconnect from the noise of everyday life and immerse yourself in the beauty of the great outdoors. Who else has experienced the rush of their first hunt?

Hunting in Zimbabwe Set to Beat Levels Before Pandemic Struck The $100 million sector sees sales growing 15% this year Nation offers 500 licenses to tourists to kill elephants Zimbabwe’s hunting industry expects to attract more visitors this year than before the coronavirus pandemic, even as the war in Ukraine and other economic challenges weigh on numbers. The hunting season, currently underway in the southern African nation, is experiencing “exponential growth” from traditional markets including the US, Emmanuel Fundira, president of the Safari Operators Association of Zimbabwe, said by phone from Harare on Monday. Revenues are forecast to be 15% higher this year than the $100 million earned before the pandemic, Fundira said.

Scheme to protect hen harriers in England a waste of money, says wildlife group Wild Justice says government initiative to relocate broods away from grouse moors ‘rewards past crimes’ of illegal killing A £900,000 government scheme to “meddle” with nests of hen harriers is a waste of money and rewards those who kill them, a wildlife campaign group has said. The claims are contained in a report produced by Wild Justice and released to coincide with the Glorious Twelfth, the official start of the grouse shooting season, on Saturday. Grouse moor gamekeepers have historically killed hen harriers illegally because they eat smaller birds, including grouse. Since the start of a government brood management scheme in 2018, 98 hen harriers have been confirmed as missingin suspicious circumstances or are known to have been illegally killed in the UK, many of them on or close to English grouse moors.

A bowhunter killed a cougar Nov. 11 in Buffalo County after reportedly being threatened by the animal, according to the Department of Natural Resources. The incident took place on private property in western Buffalo County. The hunter, licensed to pursue white-tailed deer during the Wisconsin bow season, was in a tree stand when he saw the cougar and felt his safety was at risk, said Randy Johnson, DNR large carnivore specialist. The hunter then used his bow to shoot and kill the animal. The hunter, who was not identifed, contacted the DNR to report the incident. Cougars are a protected species in Wisconsin but humans have the right to protect themselves against a wild animal if their safety is threatened. After reviewing results of an investigation by DNR conservation wardens into the cougar killing, the Buffalo County district attorney concluded no charge was war

To early humans, hunting was a necessity. The quarry provided not only food from the meat but also clothing from the skins, as well as material for tools from the bones, horns, and hooves. Both archaeological evidence from the past and observation of simpler societies of the present show widespread preoccupation with, and ingenuity in, methods of hunting. These varied, and vary, with the nature of the terrain, the animal hunted, the ingenuity and inventiveness of the hunters, and the materials and technologies at their disposal. Weapons ranged upward in intricacy and effectiveness from sticks and stones used to kill birds and small game to specially shaped clubs and throwing sticks such as the African knobkerry, the trombash of the Upper Nile, and the Australian boomerang; to spears ranging from simple pointed sticks to those with a separate foreshaft, usually barbed, and armed with heads of sharpened stone, bone, or metal.

Bowhunter injured by angry moose You don’t want an angry moose after you – especially if it knows you tried to kill it. Rescuers responded to a distress alert from a bowhunter’s GPS in Larimer County, Colorado on Tuesday after the hunter attempted to shoot a moose with an arrow. However, when he missed, the moose “charged and then gored” the man in a remote area off Long Draw Road and Highway 14 in the Poudre Canyon, according to Channel 9 News. The response time was “escalated” once officials learned that the hunter likely had “serious, potentially life-threatening injuries.” “Deputies located the hunter, who had hiked part of the way out of the campground by other hunters,” said Larimer County Sheriff’s office (LCSO) spokesperson Jenevieve Kramer.

The 10 Best States for Snow Goose Hunting Every year, hunters shoot more light geese in these states than anywhere else Even if you didn’t know much about spring snow goose hunting, fields covered with white decoys and parking lots jammed with muddy trailers would reveal hotspots across the country. And for good reason: Depending on the weather and hatch, many areas typically produce year after year. Now and then, however, you hear about a spring destination that surprises you, and some might wonder where hunters actually kill the most light geese. A quick review of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service harvest statistics provides some insight — and a few surprises. Disclaimer: These surveys are estimates and do not differentiate between spring, fall, and winter harvests, and they don’t take into account weather conditions or other factors that might influence success. We’ve compiled a four-season average — 2017-18 through 2020-21 — to get a general trend of recent hunter success. These numbe

Two Idaho wolves kill 143 sheep in freak "pile up" Two wolves are responsible for the deaths of 143 sheep in Idaho’s Boise Foothills. The “pile-up” occurred in mid-May and, following an investigation conducted by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) and Wildlife Services, officials determined that two wolves “caused the sheep to flee in panic,” which caused them to “crush or suffocate each other” as they tried to escape, according to a press release.

US: Wolves may need protections after states expand hunting. The Biden administration said Wednesday that federal protections may need to be restored for gray wolves in the western U.S. after Republican-backed state laws made it much easier to kill the predators. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service initial determination that the region’s wolves could again be in peril — after decades spent restoring them — will kick off a year-long biological review. It marks an abrupt turnaround for the federal wildlife agency and brought a swift pushback from Montana’s Republican governor, who said officials in Washington shouldn’t be “second guessing” the state’s wildlife policies. Federal officials had spent years in court defending their decisions on wolves, including under Biden and dating back to the Obama administration, when wolves were returned to state jurisdiction in the six-state Northern Rockies, opening the door to hunting for the first time in decades. https://sentinelcolorado.com/ne
