Fox and Spring

Fox and Spring In early spring, foxes in the UK exhibit specific behaviors driven by the need to care for their young and adapt to changing environmental conditions. Here’s an overview of how foxes behave during this time: --- 1. Breeding and Den Preparation - Mating Season: Foxes typically mate between December and February, so by early spring (March to April), vixens (female foxes) are either pregnant or have recently given birth. - Denning Behavior: Vixens prepare dens (also called earths) where they will give birth and raise their cubs. These dens are often located in woodland areas, hedgerows, or even under garden sheds in urban settings. Foxes may use multiple dens and rotate them to avoid detection by predators. 2. Birth and Care of Cubs - Cub Birth: In early spring, fox cubs are usually born after a gestation period of about 52 days. A typical litter consists of 4–6 cubs, though this can vary depending on food availability and the health of the vixen. - Maternal Care: The

Islay and Jura kids feast on venison for school dinners In a UK first, young people on two of Scotland’s islands are feasting on local wild venison, with the meat being added to school menus on Islay and Jura. The pilot project is a collaboration between the council and Wild Jura, a new business founded by local business people Cath and Andy McCallum. Recognising the high demand for local venison on the islands, they established Wild Jura to include commercial butchery and processing facilities, enabling local communities to enjoy the bounty on their doorstep. The wild venison comes from Ardlussa, Barnhill, Tarbert and Ruantallain Estates. Children from Small Isles Primary on Jura played a key role in product testing, with their favourite dishes—wild venison meatballs and burgers—now featured on the school menu. Venison is a nutrient-dense food, rich in protein and low in saturated fat, making it a healthy addition to school meals. The new menu items are available in Jura

Labour accuses Government of being ‘complicit’ in trophy trade Delays to the Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill have led to accusations that Conservative peers are slowing the Bill intentionally. Labour has accused the Government of being “complicit” in trophy hunting after a bill that would see imports banned in the UK became tied up in the House of Lords. Commons leader Penny Mourdaunt has insisted that MPs will get another chance to debate the Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill, though more Parliamentary time will have to be allocated. Opposition politicians accused Conservative peers of filibustering and trying to prevent the Bill from becoming law. Added amendments were branded last week as “death by a thousand cuts” in Parliament, with 62 being added separately. Those making changes have denied trying to “kill the Bill”, instead insisting they want to improve it. Labour is urging the Government to stop “dither and delaying” and revive the Bill’s chances of

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

UK trophy hunting import ban to be brought forward A trophy hunting import ban will be brought forward in coming months despite opposition from Conservative backbenchers, the environment secretary has said. George Eustice told animal welfare campaigners of the commitment after rumours that a bill banning the import of parts of endangered animals shot abroad had been stopped. The trophy hunting import ban was a Tory manifesto commitment for this parliamentary session. Eustice said the government was “absolutely committed to” bringing the bill forward. The government has said the bill has been delayed, claiming parliament does not have enough time this session to pass the law. Eustice said it would be a priority piece of legislation when the new session opens later in spring. “While we won’t be introducing the animals abroad bill in this session as we are out of time, we will be looking at a range of vehicles for legislation on these important issues in the next session,” said Eustic

Scottish Deerhound Hunting Dog: Traits, Training, and Global Use in the Field The Scottish Deerhound is a legendary hunting breed revered for its grace, endurance, and noble demeanor. Originally bred in the rugged Highlands of Scotland, this sighthound was designed to pursue and bring down large game—most notably the red deer. Today, while its role has evolved, the Deerhound remains a capable and respected hunting companion in various parts of the world. 🦌 What Game Can the Scottish Deerhound Hunt? Historically, the Scottish Deerhound was bred to course red deer, a task requiring immense speed, stamina, and precision. Its long legs and deep chest allow for powerful strides and sustained chases over uneven terrain. While modern hunting practices have shifted, Deerhounds still retain their instinctual drive and physical capability to pursue: • Red deer and fallow deer (traditional quarry in Scotland and parts of Europe) • Coyotes and wolves (used in North America historically) • Wil

Wolf charges Bear, then Bear charges the Wolf. I waited at a Bison carcass from 5am to 9pm for 3 days. Eagles and coyotes had been coming in trying to get a bite, while the Grizzly guarded the carcass, just as its mother taught it to. It would sleep on it and cover it with dirt, and when it seemingly left the scene….it would show back up when other animals tried to feed. On the 3rd morning a lone Wolf 1479 showed up from the Junction Butte pack. It had about 10 minutes to eat before the Grizzly came back. They had an initial stare down. The wolf stood on the carcass and then charged the bear. The bear initially retreated and then decided to charge the wolf. Of course the bear reclaimed the carcass.

Through the seasons of rain amongst the greens, bright sunshine of warmth, fallen leaves of gold, and darkness housed in cold, they step with heavy hooves of history across a vast forested ecosystem reserved for them; their home and their recovery. Here, even what's for us, remains for them. This protected world stretches for nearly 3,500 square miles across these mountains, an almost entirely untouched wilderness. Below, a short 142 miles of pavement carves a Grand Loop where most of Yellowstone's human visitors can be found. But even these 142 miles belong to the wild residents, and they will often use them as they please. This is, of course, the path of least resistance, and they recognize it as such. Make no mistake, the iconic bison herds of Yellowstone are never forced to use these paved miles. They use them simply because they want to, not because they have to. These are fascinating moments of unique circumstance, and I

Hardware: Leupold RX-FullDraw 5 Rangefinder When it comes to glass, I’m a Leupold guy. I’ve come to trust the clarity and dependability of their optics, from scopes to binos to spotters, and they always perform brilliantly. Of course, rangefinders fall into the optic arena and are arguably one of the most crucial tools for firearm and archery hunters. Over the years, the rangefinder pocket on my bino harness has held multiple Leupold models like the RX-1600i TBR/W, RX-FullDraw 3 and RX-FullDraw 4. All performed as advertised, and I killed lots of critters using them. Leupold’s latest incarnation for archers, the RX-FullDraw 5, is the spitting image of the RX-4: compact, lightweight, durable, ergonomic and 6x magnification. The big difference, and one I was ready to dive headfirst into, is the new rangefinder’s Ballistic Mode. Before taking full advantage of the technology that makes this rangefinder one of the market’s most advanced and accurate bowhunting rangefinders, Leupold ask

Could vaccines for animals instead of humans help prevent the next COVID or monkeypox pandemics? How do we vaccinate wildlife? "There are many ways you can go about vaccinating wildlife" Scott Nuisner, a Professor of Biological Sciences and one of the authors of a study on the topic first published in Nature, Ecology & Evolution in 2020, told Euronews Next. "We already do this actually in North America and Europe to control rabies," he explained. "For instance, in North America, we vaccinate raccoons against rabies by dropping vaccines that are in edible baits across the landscape, out of planes or helicopters. And the raccoons eat it and they become vaccinated against rabies. And, of course, that protects us and our livestock and our pets". This solution has proven quite successful but Nuisner specified that, for it to work, you must have the right resources available - funds to fly helicopters around and pay for the baits - and a species that’s "long-lived".

According to a recent National Park Service (NPS) news release, the wolves were trapped in Canada and released in the Isle Royale National Park in Michigan. “During a narrow weather window between storms last week, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF) successfully transferred four wolves to Isle Royale National Park,” NPS said. “Earlier this winter, severe weather on both sides of the border hampered the ability to capture and transfer wolves. However, NPS staff worked diligently with ONMRF and over the course of four days successfully translocated Canadian wolves.

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.

10 Classic Hunting Rifles Every Hunter Should Own (Part 1) These classic hunting rifles bring a good dose of nostalgia, and plenty of real-world performance 1. Springfield Armory Model 1903 Sporter Many, if not most, of our modern bolt-action hunting rifles have their roots in military rifles of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. After the World Wars, an abundance of surplus rifles was quickly taken advantage of by hunters. The 1903 Springfield was commonly “sporterized” by pulling the action and putting it in a shorter, more-handy “sporter” stock. Of course, they were often re-barreled, re-chambered, and highly-modified for specific hunting purposes—all based around the robust 1903 action. It was common for gunsmiths to “sporterize” surplus rifles for customers, turning them into heirloom hunting rifles. If I was to buy one, I’d take the original .30/06 chambering, although they were often re-barreled in other calibers like .270 Win. The 1903’s action was built for battle, a

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
