Blackfeet Nation in Banff National Park, 1913. Photographer: Rolanda W. Reed The Blackfeet, also known as the Blackfoot Confederation, are an Indian people or a group of linguistically related peoples living in the northwest of Montana in the USA and in the south of the province of Alberta in Canada. The name of the people — Siksikaitsitapi — comes from the color of moccasins, siksikanam "black" and okkati "foot". According to legend, the Blackfeet led the migration of Western Algonquins from the Red River Valley to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. Up until 1730, the Blackfeet traveled on foot and used dogs to transport their utensils. The Shoshones acquired horses much earlier than the Blackfeet and soon occupied most of modern-day Alberta and Montana, as well as part of Wyoming, raiding their enemies. When the Blackfeet saw their horses for the first time and realized all the advantages of these animals, they wanted to take possession of them. They named the ponokamite

Skylarks, starlings and mistle thrushes: Endangered songbirds licensed to be killed for sport in UK Skylarks, starlings and mistle thrushes are among the red-listed species approved to be hunted by falconers. Should endangered wild birds be hunted for sport? It sounds like an odd question to be asking in 2023, in the midst of a biodiversity crisis. Yet, at a time when many avian species in the UK are under threat of regional extinction, government data reveals falconers are permitted to hunt rare songbirds. The data, released this week by government watchdog Natural England, has caused concern among environmentalists. What is falconry and how is it regulated in the UK? Falconry involves hunting wild animals in their natural habitat using a trained bird of prey. There are reportedly around 25,000 falconers in the UK. The sport itself dates back hundreds of years, and it has seen a resurgence in recent times. While it remains legal throughout Britain, many outside the hobby are u

ASTANA (AFP-Jiji) — Kazakhstan on Oct. 16 said it would legalize hunting of the once-threatened Saiga antelopes to manage their population — a sensitive subject in a country where the animals are widely revered. The government said there are currently around two million Saiga antelopes. Once threatened with extinction, the antelopes are still on the red list of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. “Regulation of the Saigas is necessary. This species is damaging farming,” Ecology Minister Erlan Nysanbayev told a press conference, adding that damage caused by them to farms totaled 12 million tenge ($25 million). “There are two methods — capturing them during the day using nets and hunting them at night. I won’t avoid the question. We will also have to use the second option,” he said. A ministry spokesman said that “up to 337,500 Saiga antelopes have to be captured or killed by November 30.” The culling of Saiga antelopes is a frequent subject of debate in Kazakhst

Trinidad and Tobago There is a very active tradition of hunting small to medium-sized wild game in Trinidad and Tobago. Hunting is carried out with firearms, slingshots and cage traps, and sometimes aided by the use of hounds. The illegal use of trap guns and snare nets also occurs. With approximately 12,000 to 13,000 hunters applying for and being granted hunting permits in recent years, there is some concern that the practice might not be sustainable. In addition there are at present no bag limits and the open season is comparatively very long (5 months – October to February inclusive). As such hunting pressure from legal hunters is very high. Added to that, there is a thriving and very lucrative black market for poached wild game (sold and enthusiastically purchased as expensive luxury delicacies) and the numbers of commercial poachers in operation is unknown but presumed to be fairly high. As a result, the populations of the five major mammalian game species (red-rumped agouti, low

Pheasant shoots scaled back across UK after bird flu import bans Pheasant shoots across the UK are being shut down or dramatically scaled back this year because of import bans on the birds after an outbreak of bird flu. A huge number of the gamebirds shot in the country are imported from factory farms in Europe. Experts have said this practice should stop or be reduced because it risks spreading disease and has troubling implications for native nature and biodiversity. Just under 50 million pheasants are usually released each year from continental farms. A recent study suggested that at their peak in August each year, non-native common pheasants and red-legged partridges make up about half of all wild bird biomass in Britain. The annual shooting season begins on 1 October. Jeff Knott, the central and eastern England director at the RSPB, said: “The most important thing from our perspective is the bird flu situation underlines the risks of importing and releasing millions of birds i

Five o’clock with polar bear. If you decide to drink tea with cookies in the North of Russia, do not forget to treat the polar bear. The number of polar bears is declining worldwide. Almost everywhere this species is under protection, any prey of the beast is prohibited. There are approximately 25-30 thousand individuals left on the entire planet. A significant part of them live in the Russian north. In the Russian Federation, it lives on the Arctic coast and islands in the waters from the Barents to the Chukchi and Bering Seas. The Chukchi polar bear population is considered to be the largest in the world. On floating ice, polar bears can reach more southern latitudes, for example, they can reach the center of the eastern coast of Kamchatka. In Russia, polar bears are listed in the Red Book, and their hunting has been prohibited since 1956. Despite this, experts estimate that 100-200 bears fall victim to poachers every year.

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. I spotted a hare running along the edge of the field, clearly flushed out by hunters who had gone further ahead. I took a couple of shots through the tall grass, but ROS didn’t see t

An Early Start for a Day Immersed in Nature’s Beauty at the Royal Park 🌅 Yesterday, I set off at 4 AM from the outskirts of Guildford, determined to secure a parking spot early, and it was so worth it! As we arrived, the gates opened, and there were plenty of spaces available. Over the years, my wife Katie Tanner Photography and I have visited many times, especially during rutting season, but this year was much quieter compared to the past. Despite that, the experience was just as magical. Spending the day wandering through this beautiful royal park was mesmerizing. The sound of red deer calls echoing all around made for an unforgettable experience. Witnessing these magnificent creatures up close during their rut was awe-inspiring. 🦌🍂 Being out in nature like this really makes you feel connected to the natural world.

SITKA Goes Under ‘Cover’ With Next-Gen Greener Camo When a brand chooses to "Go Green" these days, it tends to mean something completely different. It may seem like a new color to many, but the new palette at SITKA has a lot of hunters excited. OPTIFADE Cover is the first camo option from SITKA that brings increased levels of green and deeper shadows to its lineup. The brand worked with researchers at the University of Georgia Deer Research Lab to create the palette. The goal was to offer better concealment in “greener seasons,” with a focus on hiding hunters in densely vegetated areas and leafy tree environments. Regionally, the target audience for this new shift in shade was the eastern United States. Obviously, this isn’t going to be the top choice for golden grasslands or the red rock of the open badlands, but that isn’t what it’s meant for. Not only does Cover work well in the environments it was designed for, but it also works really well in lower-light, heavily shadowed land

The 3 Most Expensive Hunts in North America If you’re saving up money for a once-in-a-lifetime dream adventure, why not shoot for the moon? If you had all the money in the world, what would you buy first? Most of us think for a few moments before answering. Some might go for a sports car. Others might tour Europe. How about a beachfront mansion with an elevator, movie theatre, pool, and private chef? But others might spend the money on hunting. Where would you go and what would you hunt for if cost were no obstacle? African elephant? New Zealand red stag? Spanish Ibex? Or, would you stick to North America, where we have more than two dozen big-game hunting opportunities? Some are very affordable and DIY friendly, but others require hunting with a guide and could cost tens of thousands of dollars. Yes, you read that correctly.

The wild boar (Sus scrofa), also known as the wild swine, common wild pig, Eurasian wild pig, or simply wild pig, is a suid native to much of Eurasia and North Africa, and has been introduced to the Americas and Oceania. The species is now one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world, as well as the most widespread suiform. It has been assessed as least concern on the IUCN Red List due to its wide range, high numbers, and adaptability to a diversity of habitats. It has become an invasive species in part of its introduced range. Wild boars probably originated in Southeast Asia during the Early Pleistocene and outcompeted other suid species as they spread throughout the Old World As of 1990, up to 16 subspecies are recognized, which are divided into four regional groupings based on skull height and lacrimal bone length.The species lives in matriarchal societies consisting of interrelated females and their young (both male and female). Fully grown males are usually solitary outside the

Russian hunter and a red deer. Hand-to-hand combat… Many so-called animal defenders, after watching this video, would start to panic. "A bloodthirsty hunter mocks and torments a kind deer." But only hunters and real experts in the field of fauna will be able to really understand what is happening on the video: None of the 3 hunters present are trying to shoot the deer. One hunter is trying to defend himself, and the hunter in white wants to scare the deer. The third one films the fight between a deer and a hunter on video and is very amused by what is happening. It is obvious that the deer is in the rut, it has a mating season. At this time, they are very aggressive and, under the influence of hormones, attack everything they see. And the hunters, apparently, do not have the appropriate license to kill deer, and they do not want to break the law, they are just trying to protect themselves. During the rut period, which is the mating season for deer, male deer (bucks) can become high

How to Make Moose Jerky Moose jerky is delicious, nutritious and easy to make. The basic concept in my recipe is to take a quality cut of moose, slice it thin, marinate it for four hours and then remove the moisture from the meat in a dehydrator for four- to six hours at 155℉. Here’s how I make moose jerky: Ingredients 3 pound lean moose roast or steak 2/3 cup Worcestershire sauce 1/2 cup soy sauce 2 tbsp honey 2 tsp ground black pepper 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 1 tsp onion powder Step 1 Using a meat slicer—I use a Weston Pro 320 10” Meat Slicer—cut your moose into 1/8-inch slices. I like using lean steaks and roasts from the rear quarter. Flank steak is another popular option. I’ve tried backstrap, but didn’t like it as well due to the fat marbling in the meat. Frozen, slightly thawed meat works best for slicing in a meat slicer. Step 2 In a medium bowl, mix all the ingredients (except the moose) until blended. I use a whisk to integrate the honey into the liquid. Pour the mix

Turkey hunting can be a dangerous sport. If you turkey hunt, this article could save your life or prevent you from taking a life. I don’t know directly or indirectly a person who has been shot deer hunting but I know indirectly through a friend that a hunting partner of his was killed and directly a friend of mine was shot but survived while turkey hunting. Here are some tips to prevent you from being shot or accidentally shooting someone else. • No. 1 rule, always completely and positively identify your target before you pull the trigger. All turkey hunters know to make the best kill shot, you must aim for the head of a gobbler. Shooting the body of a gobbler may only wound it. Never shoot at movement. • Since the colors of a gobbler’s head are red, white and blue, never wear those colors in the woods. Wear full camo so a hand or face isn’t mistaken for a gobbler’s head. • When setting up for a turkey to call, always try and set against a big tree that will protect your back and

The name “raccoon” comes to us from the Indian word “Arakun”, which translates as “scratching with his own hands.” Raccoons are predatory mammals. Raccoon dogs are close relatives of raccoons (they are often confused with raccoons). How big is the raccoon? The length of its body is usually 45-60 cm. The average weight of a raccoon, depending on the species, can vary from 2-5 to 8-15 kg. Moreover, males are often larger than females. The structure of a raccoon’s body is a bit like a fox or a dog. The raccoon’s paws are an important distinguishing feature of these animals; they have very elongated pads, even reminiscent of human hands. So all raccoons have excellent grasping abilities. Raccoons easily climb on trees and can manipulate various small objects. The raccoon’s tail is long and usually fluffy. As for the color, all raccoons have a grayish-brown color, and their tail is painted with transverse black and white stripes. The raccoon’s head is very wide, has a short and sharp mu
