J.P. Sauer & Sohn: история ружья Зауэр. От кузницы в Зуле до легенды немецкого оружейного дела Основатель и истоки: кузница в Зуле (1751) В 1751 году Иоганн Пауль Зауэр (Johann Paul Sauer), потомственный оружейник, основал мастерскую в городе Зуль (Тюрингия) — сердце немецкого оружейного производства. Город славился мастерами, снабжавшими европейские армии, но Зауэр сосредоточился на охотничьем оружии. Его девиз: «Одно ружье — одна жизнь». Ключевые этапы в истории бренда 1. 1811: Наследие семьи
Сын основателя, Людвиг Зауэр, расширил производство, внедрив разделение труда. Ружья Sauer стали эталоном для европейской аристократии. 2. 1880: Первый бескурковый штуцер
Модель Sauer Royal — бокфлинт со скрытыми курками и гравировкой в стиле барокко. Использовалась на королевских охотах в Пруссии. 3. 1930-е: Эра комбинированного оружия
Зауэр представил Drilling — трёхстволку (два гладких ствола + один нарезной). Пример: Sauer 16-Gauge Drilling (1936) под патроны 16/70 и 9,3×74R. 4. 1951: Пе

Канадский бобр Биологически сходен с евразийским и долгое время считался его подвидом. Однако в его кариотипе 40 хромосом, а не 48, как у евразийского бобра, и они не могут скрещиваться. В отличие от евразийского бобра его туловище менее вытянуто, грудь широкая, голова короткая с более крупными тёмными ушными раковинами и близко расположенными выпуклыми глазами. Хвост шире (длина 20—25 см, ширина 13—15 см), овальный со слегка заострённым концом, покрыт чёрными роговыми щитками. Длина его тела 90—117 см; масса достигает 32 кг. Окраска красновато- или черновато-коричневая. Резцы непропорционально велики — ими бобр грызёт твёрдую древесину. Верхние резцы, по крайней мере, 20—25 мм длиной и 5 мм шириной. Смыкающиеся ушные отверстия и ноздри, прозрачные перепонки на глазах являются приспособлением к полуводному образу жизни. У основания хвоста и у самцов, и у самок находятся крупные парные железы, выделяющие пахучий секрет.

Житель Новой Зел

Парень построил лифт для пожилого котика 20-летний кот уже не мог выходить во дворик самостоятельно, и хозяин помог решить эту задачу. Житель Новой Зеландии Лиам Томпсон сконструировал лифт для своего домашнего питомца: 20-летнего кота по кличке Фродо. Это очень солидный возраст: по человеческим меркам Фродо уже за 80 лет. Животное очень любило сидеть на солнышке у бассейна, но в последнее время это давалось ему все труднее: кот не справлялся с высокими лестничными пролетами. Тогда хозяин пришел на помощь питомцу, сделав для него маленький лифт с электрическим подъемником. «Готов ли ты спуститься вниз, не пошевелив ни единым мускулом? Надеюсь, что да, ведь я потратил на работу четыре дня», – говорит Лиам своему подопечному. Молодой человек давно занимается различными изобретениями и усовершенствованиями техники. Среди его творений – робот-дворецкий, потайная дверь, водная горка в песках и американская – на заднем дворе. https://youtu.be/Yg3SWcxMeF4

The English Setter: A Gentleman's Gun Dog – History, Hunting Prowess, and Care The English Setter, often dubbed a "gentleman's gun dog," is more than just a pretty face in the field. These dogs are tireless workers with a keen nose, bred for centuries to find and point game birds. If you're considering an English Setter for hunting, here's what you need to know. A Breed Steeped in History and Purpose The English Setter's roots trace back to 14th-century Europe, with origins in spaniel-type dogs. Selective breeding in England throughout the 1800s by dedicated sportsmen like Edward Laverack and Purcell Llewellin refined the breed into the elegant, skilled pointer we know today. Laverack focused on beauty and temperament, while Llewellin prioritized field performance. These early bloodlines laid the foundation for the modern English Setter.
