Trophy Universal: Urial Ovis aries (lat.) is a species of mammal from the genus 🐏 rams, subfamily Capidae, family Bovidae. ℹ️ An interesting combination of genetic traits could classify urials as both OVIS and Caprinae. However, if we look at the species of trophy animals that make up the rating tables of various hunting clubs, such as KGO, SCI, GSCO, it follows that a urial trophy can only close a position in the OVIS category - rams. ❗️Urials are in the "vulnerable species" category, so many countries have begun to strengthen the populations of these animals, which are becoming rare. Hunting tourism has become one of the supports for countries in which the urial is an official hunting species. A limited number of licenses are issued for shooting, and good deductions from officially conducted hunts are returned to the economy of the regions where they live and sponsor environmental activities. We can safely say that all hunters who go hunting for urial in Iran, Pakistan, Uzbekist

How To Take Better Hunting Photos You’ve just shot a big-game animal. The adrenaline is pumping; you and your buddies are stoked, and then the reality sets in that the work is now upon you to butcher and pack-out the caribou, moose, bear, sheep, deer, goat, elk, bison or musk ox. In the haste to get started butchering, you snap off a few photos, trying to capture the animal and moment, but without forethought, the photos rarely end up capturing the elation and satisfaction of the hunt or the image of the quarry. To prevent that bad news from hitting you when you get home from your next trip and start scrolling through your images to pique the memory, here are some thoughts on how to maximize your photos of the hunt.

Stags, Ponies, Raptors – what an amazing day we’ve had! 🦌🐴🦅 Today was all about being surrounded by nature's finest. The majestic stags, with their powerful antlers, roamed gracefully through the fields, a true symbol of strength and endurance. The wild ponies, untamed and free, galloped across the landscape, their manes flowing in the wind, reminding us of the beauty of freedom and resilience. And then there were the raptors – sharp-eyed, fierce hunters of the skies, soaring effortlessly as they scanned the ground below for prey. Each animal brought its own sense of wonder, from the ground to the sky.

The Thrill of the Hunt: Connecting with Nature Hunting has been an integral part of human culture for centuries, serving not only as a means of sustenance but also as a unique opportunity to connect with nature. For many, it is more than just a sport; it’s a way to appreciate the wild, understand animal behavior, and develop a deep respect for the environment. The thrill of the hunt comes from the challenge it presents. Whether tracking a deer through the woods or patiently waiting in a blind for waterfowl, each outing is an adventure. Hunters often rely on a mix of skill, knowledge, and patience to succeed. It’s not just about the final catch but the experience of being outdoors, the strategies involved, and the camaraderie shared with fellow hunters. Sustainable hunting practices play a vital role in conservation efforts. By participating in regulated hunting, individuals contribute to wildlife management and habitat preservation.

Review of NIKON ACULON A211 10x50 Binoculars I recently purchased the NIKON ACULON A211 10x50 binoculars, and after testing them in various conditions, I am ready to share my thoughts. Overall, these binoculars offer a great combination of power and usability, but they do come with some drawbacks that are worth mentioning. NIKON ACULON Pros: Optical Clarity: The 10x magnification combined with the 50mm objective lens provides clear and bright images. I've used them for birdwatching and at sporting events, and I've been thoroughly impressed by the clarity, even in low light conditions. Lightweight and Portable: For binoculars of this size, I found them surprisingly lightweight, making them easy to carry during extended outings. They fit comfortably in my shoulder bag, which is a big plus for on-the-go adventures. User-Friendly Design: The rubber armor provides a sturdy grip and protects the binoculars from minor bumps. The focus wheel operates smoothly, which makes it easy to adjus

Fox Hunting in Britain Fox hunting has been occurring in different guises worldwide for hundreds of years. Indeed the practise of using dogs with a keen sense of smell to track prey has been traced back to ancient Egypt and many Greek and Roman influenced countries. However it is believed that the custom for a fox to be tracked, chased and often killed by trained hunting hounds (generally those with the keenest sense of smell known as ‘scent hounds’) and followed by the Master of the Foxhounds and his team on foot and horseback, originated from a Norfolk farmer’s attempt to catch a fox using farm dogs in 1534. Whilst foxes were widely regarded as vermin and farmers and other landowners had hunted the animals for many years as a form of pest control (both to curb their attacks on farm animals and for their highly prized fur) it wasn’t until the eighteenth century that fox hunting developed into it’s most modern incarnation and was considered a sport in its own right as a result of the

Wyoming reduces number of mule deer and antelope tags There will be fewer tags for Wyoming mule deer and antelope this year. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department (WGFD) decided to reduce the number of tags due to disease and drought, according to Wyoming Public Radio. EHD, or blue tongue, has impacted herds and continuing drought means more competition for available forage. Ian Tator, WGFD’s terrestrial habitat manager, says that “elk will out compete mule deer and [antelope] for vegetation.” “We had an outbreak of blue tongue this last summer, which just means there are that many less animals available,” says Tator. “If those animals aren't there to begin with, we're not going to issue licenses for them.” This means that WGFD will cut the number of antelope licenses by 8,000 and mule deer licenses by 3,300 for the 2022 hunting season. However, there will be an increase in elk tags, which Tator hopes will “give the mule deer and [antelope] populations a chance to grow.” “We're trying t

Less Lethal Wolf Ammo? Roughly 30 local ranchers gathered at the fairgrounds in Carey, Idaho, last week to talk wolves. But this was far from the typical wolf discussion. The workshop, possibly the first of many hosted by Defenders of Wildlife, took an unusual and widely unacknowledged tack: Don't shoot the predator, protect the prey. The morning served as a crash course in a host of non-lethal deterrents to wolf predation, from guard dogs to grazing rotations. It also marked the first attempt by Defenders to share with the public lessons learned over the past three years by the Wood River Wolf Project. Defenders of Wildlife spokeswoman Suzanne Stone says the project has field-tested numerous tools for decreasing livestock losses to predators, an approach that replaces the habit of killing problem animals with the concept of coexistence.

Hunting for a Hare with a Dog: A Day in the Field with ROS the Spaniel Today, my red spaniel ROS showed exceptional skill in tracking a wounded hare. He picked up the scent of the injured animal, chased it down with determination, and finished the job with a clear voice. The emotions I’m feeling right now are overwhelming - not because of the hunt itself, but because of the dog’s incredible work. Thanks to ROS, there’s no wounded animal left suffering in the field. I’m sure many hunters will understand this feeling. While there are breeds that might perform this task even more spectacularly, ROS is my dog, and this was only his second time hunting hare. It’s all part of his training, and I’m proud to share how it went. Here’s how it unfolded: We entered a thicket and emerged into a small clearing.

The attacks were so frequent and violent that the locals started talking about demons and punishments from the gods. But the Bengal tigress was the culprit!

Wild boar hunting is one of the most popular hunt in France. With an ever-growing population, Wild Boar is commonly present in many regions of France. The average weight is around 50 to 80 kg (110 to 176 lbs) and the biggest male adults are from 100 to 200 kg (220 to 440 lbs), the trophy consisting of its tusks (canines and incisors). Mainly hunted on driven hunts, the wild boar is a smart animal, astute enough to cross hunters' line and then escape. With a very good memory and a perfect knowledge of its territory the Wild Boar is a fascinating animal to hunt and hard to catch.

A Night in Hippo Heaven By Donald J Stoner It is said that hippos kill more people in Africa than any other animal (if you exclude mosquitos). But does that qualify them to be classified as dangerous game. I have certainly had my doubts until, that is, an experience I had one night in a farmer’s field. There is no question that an animal that weighs two tons, can run up to 20 mph and has huge teeth, has the potential of being dangerous. The danger is highest if you happen to catch a hippo on the land. Water is their preferred environment and they seem less threatened there. I don’t think any predator will attack a full-grown hippo in the water, although a big croc will certainly snatch a small hippo given half a chance. On the other hand, lion, especially a large pride, will attack a hippo if they catch it on land. This may have something to do with hippo temperament when they are away from water. Threaten a hippo on land, and it will head straight for the nearest water an

A Navajo Indian in a bear suit, 1914. Navajo Indians donned a bear suit during a ceremonial ritual, embodying the spirit of the revered animal. For the Navajo, the bear symbolizes strength, healing, and protection. By wearing the bear suit—crafted from fur, claws, and adorned with sacred symbols—the individual sought to channel the bear's powerful essence. This act was more than mere costume; it was a profound connection to their cultural heritage and spiritual beliefs. Through this ritual, the Navajo honored the natural world and invoked the bear’s strength for guidance and safeguarding their community. In an era marked by change, this tradition reinforced their identity and reverence for ancient customs. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Navajo Indians faced significant challenges and transformations. Living primarily in the Four Corners region of the southwestern United States, they were navigating the complexities of preserving their rich cultural heritage while adaptin

WHAT IS HARE HUNTING? Hare hunting involves the pursuing of hares by a pack of harriers, beagles, or bassets with followers either on foot or on horseback. The Association of Masters of Harriers and Beagles lists 71 current hare hunts that are still operating. Similar to the fox hunting season, hare hunting takes place between late August until March. However, whilst fox hunting takes place all over the country, hare hunting tends to be limited to certain areas and this is because hares stay within their territory. Hares spend the entirety of their lives above ground and so during the chase they do not seek safety underground like foxes do. This means they tend to stick to the area that they know and run in loops whilst being pursued by the hounds. Hare hunts can often last up to an hour with hares desperately doing everything they can to escape. Ultimately the hare being hunted will give up from exhaustion and be caught by the faster hounds before it is ripped to pieces.

Hunting in Kinshasa: Urban Outskirts, Cultural Hunting Heritage, and Ecological Contrasts The Ecological Mosaic of Kinshasa and Its Surroundings Although Kinshasa is best known as the bustling capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, its periphery is marked by a contrasting landscape of savannah patches, lowland forests, wetlands, and rivers. These transitional zones between dense urbanization and the natural world provide habitat for small game species and support limited traditional hunting. The areas along the Ndjili and Congo Rivers, as well as nearby forest fragments, represent the last vestiges of wild space in this growing metropolis. Demography In Kinshasa itself, hunting is largely absent due to urban sprawl. However, in peri-urban and rural zones on the outskirts—such as Maluku, Kimwenza, and areas toward Kwilu—hunting remains a subsistence activity. It is practiced by small-scale farmers, fishermen, and migrant families who retain ties to traditional village life
