Pneumonia found in bighorn sheep in Montana Nine bighorn sheep that were recently introduced into the Little Belt Mountains of Montana have died from pneumonia. Several other sheep within the same herd group have also been demonstrating symptoms of respiratory disease. Bighorn sheep were common in the Little Belt Mountain Range before they were largely extirpated from the mountain range by the early 1900s. Montana Fish Wildlife & Parks and several partner organizations worked to translocate wild sheep to this area in 2020 and 2021 by capturing 83 bighorn sheep in the upper Missouri River Breaks and releasing them into the eastern Little Belts. All of the translocated sheep were fitted with GPS collars before release. Pneumonia in bighorn sheep is often extremely fatal and can severely affect lamb survival in problematic areas. Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae, which is a bacteria that can be carried by wild and domestic sheep, is believed to be the primary agent associated with outbreaks of

The Otterhound: A Hunter's Companion With a Nose for Adventure As a seasoned hunter, I've always valued a good hunting dog by my side. Over the years, I've had the pleasure of working with many breeds, each with its own unique strengths. But today, I want to introduce you to a truly remarkable canine companion: the Otterhound. A Dog With a Purpose The Otterhound, as the name suggests, was originally bred to hunt otters. These aquatic predators were once considered a threat to fish stocks in England, and the Otterhound emerged as a specialist in their pursuit. But don't let the name fool you; the Otterhound is more versatile than you might think. While they excel in water, their stamina, powerful nose, and determination make them capable hunters on land as well. What Can an Otterhound Hunt? While traditionally used for otter hunting (now illegal in many places), today's Otterhounds can be trained to hunt: Raccoons: Their tracking abilities and determination make them well-suited f

Hunting in North East Ghana: Exploring Geography, Examining Legislation, and Learning Interesting Facts

The North East Region of Ghana, carved out of the Northern Region

Hunting in North East Ghana: Exploring Geography, Examining Legislation, and Learning Interesting Facts The North East Region of Ghana, carved out of the Northern Region in 2019, is one of the country’s youngest administrative divisions. Characterized by its savanna landscapes, river systems, and rural communities, this region preserves long-standing hunting traditions that are deeply tied to survival, identity, and cultural heritage. In North East Ghana, hunting remains a vital part of life for many households, especially during the dry season and in areas where agriculture alone does not suffice. Geography and Natural Features of North East Ghana for Hunting The North East Region features a mix of Guinea savanna woodlands, grasslands, and scattered river valleys, including parts of the White Volta Basin and tributaries such as the Nasia and Red Volta Rivers.

Hunting in Warrap: Terrain, Hunting Practices, and Wildlife Diversity Geography and Natural Features in Warrap Warrap State is located in the northwestern part of South Sudan, characterized by a blend of open grasslands, acacia woodlands, seasonal streams, and low-lying wetlands. Its terrain is largely flat, with expansive savannas interrupted by shallow depressions that fill with water during the rainy season. These geographic features create varied habitats ideal for different types of game species. The state's natural environment supports both resident and migratory wildlife, with ecological patterns shaped by the long dry and wet seasonal cycles that define the region. Demographics Warrap is primarily home to the Dinka people, a Nilotic ethnic group with a strong cultural emphasis on cattle, community, and land.

Browning Auto-5 (A-5) Shotgun Review: System, Modifications, Calibers, Price, Facts. The Browning Auto-5, often referred to as the A-5, is more than just a shotgun — it’s a piece of firearms history. Designed by the legendary John Moses Browning in 1898 and patented in 1900, the Auto-5 was the first successful semi-automatic shotgun ever produced. With over 2.7 million units manufactured across Belgium, the United States, and Japan, this firearm has earned its place as a favorite among hunters, trap shooters, and collectors alike. 🔧 Design & Operating System A5 The Browning Auto-5 uses a long-recoil operated system, a mechanism where the barrel and bolt recoil together after firing, then separate to eject the spent shell and chamber the next round. This system was revolutionary at the time and remains one of the most reliable semi-auto shotgun actions ever developed. • Action Type: Semi-automatic, long-recoil • Feed System: Tubular magazine (4+1 capacity) • Safety: Crossbolt or tr

The Mighty Dachshund: Small Dog, Big Hunting Power The Dachshund, often lovingly referred to as the "wiener dog", may be small, but it's a true powerhouse in the world of hunting. Originally bred in Germany, Dachshunds were designed for one primary purpose: to be fierce and determined hunting dogs, excelling at tracking and chasing burrowing animals like badgers, rabbits, and foxes. With their unique, low-to-the-ground muscular build, they can dig into dens and pursue prey where larger dogs can't go. Their keen sense of smell and exceptional tracking skills make them reliable companions for following a scent trail over long distances. Despite their size, Dachshunds have a bold and fearless nature, unafraid to confront prey directly. These dogs are not only strong but also agile. Their long, sturdy legs help them move swiftly when chasing animals, and their sharp reflexes make them adept at navigating through forests and fields. Whether working solo or in a pack, their loyalty, intel

Fox Foxes are small to medium-sized, omnivorous mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae. They have a flattened skull, upright, triangular ears, a pointed, slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush). Twelve species belong to the monophyletic "true foxes" group of genus Vulpes. Approximately another 25 current or extinct species are always or sometimes called foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of the South American foxes, or of the outlying group, which consists of the bat-eared fox, gray fox, and island fox. Foxes live on every continent except Antarctica. The most common and widespread species of fox is the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) with about 47 recognized subspecies. The global distribution of foxes, together with their widespread reputation for cunning, has contributed to their prominence in popular culture and folklore in many societies around the world.

Review of the Browning BAR II Rifle: A Blend of Tradition and Performance As an avid hunter and shooting enthusiast, I recently had the opportunity to get my hands on the Browning BAR II rifle, and I must say, it was an experience that exceeded my expectations.

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

Review of Steiner Ranger 4 3-12x56 Day Scope As an avid marksman and hunter, I've had the opportunity to use the Steiner Ranger 4 3-12x56 rifle scope extensively over the past few months. This review aims to provide an honest, detailed account of my experience with this German-made optic, highlighting both its strengths and weaknesses. Steiner Pros: Optical Clarity: One of the standout features of the Steiner Ranger 4 is its exceptional optical clarity. The 56mm objective lens allows for excellent light transmission, which means that even in low-light conditions, I can accurately identify my target. The image is bright, crisp, and has minimal distortion, making it a pleasure to use, especially during those early morning hunts. Build Quality: The scope feels robust and well-made, typical of German engineering. It has a solid construction that is waterproof, fog-proof, and shock-resistant. This gives me the confidence to take it into various weather conditions without worrying about

African Wildcat (Africa) Felis silvestris lybica DESCRIPTION (male) Head and body length 21-26 inches (545-665 mm). Tail 11-14 inches (275-360 mm). Weight 9-14 pounds (4-6 kg). (female) Head & body length 18-24 inches (460-620 mm). Tail 10-14 inches (255-355 mm). Weight 5-11 pounds (2.3-5.0 kg). Females have four pairs of teats. The African wildcat is generally recognized as the ancestor of the domestic cat (Felis catus) and often interbreeds with it. The two species are similar in size and appearance and can be difficult to identify in the field; however, there are two features that distinguish purebred wildcats from domestic cats and hybrids. In the wildcat, the backs of the ears are a rich reddish-brown, while domestic cats and hybrids usually have dark gray or black-backed ears, with perhaps a little red. A second feature is the wildcat's long legs. When a wildcat sits upright, its long front legs raise the body almost to the vertical, a position that is nearly impossible for dome

Public comment period extended for Montana grizzly bear management plan If you are interested in reviewing Montana’s draft grizzly bear management plan and environmental impact statement (EIS), you have a bit more time to do so. The public comment period has been extended until Feb. 4. “We know the holidays are a busy time for people and their families,” said Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (MFWP) Director Hank Worsech. “We want to make sure people have a chance to share their best ideas with us and so extending the comment period by 30 days will allow for that.” The draft plan and EIS will serve as a guide to long-term management and conservation of grizzly bears across the state, according to a press release. MFWP used existing bear plans and conservation strategies, the federal recovery plan and work conducted by the Grizzly Bear Advisory Council to draft it. If approved, this new plan will become the new statewide plan that allows for the “long-term viability of grizzly bears w

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

Making the Traditional Bow Switch Trading your compound bow for a recurve adds a whole new twist to your bowhunting experience Over the past few years, traditional archery has surged in popularity among recreational shooters and bowhunters alike. For many, making the switch from a compound to a recurve or long bow is a way to increase the challenge of a hunt; for others, it’s a way to embrace the simplicity of traditional archery. Choosing to bowhunt with traditional gear not only requires hunters to get closer to game but also to spend a significant amount of time practicing with their equipment to become proficient. When it comes to equipment selection and shooting style, there are many differences between a stick bow and a wheel bow that can be confusing for traditional newcomers. So, I recruited the help of long-time traditional bowhunter Travis “T-Bone” Turner to help you understand where to get started with traditional archery.

PHEASANT (COMMON) A large, long-tailed game bird. Males have rich chestnut, golden-brown and black markings on body and tail, with a dark green head and red face wattling. Females are mottled with paler brown and black. They were introduced in France long ago and more recent introductions have brought in a variety of races and breeds for sport shooting. It flies fast and in a rolling countryside it is a very difficult bird to shoot. In some of our hunting estates there are also some Reeve’s pheasant. This boldly patterned pheasant is instantly recognizable, having some of the longest tail feathers of any bird species. The male has bright golden-chestnut upper parts, with black borders to each feather creating a strongly scaled appearance, while the upper breast is darker chestnut to black, and the lower breast and side feathers are white, tipped in black. The female is much more light is color with a short tail. The males when they fly make a very characteristic sound (like a smal

I shot this button buck Saturday night while sitting at the base of a giant oak tree. Three does came out of the cedars earlier that evening, but they were about 155 yards away and moving at a pretty good clip. Then this young deer came out, and when he finally moved out from behind a couple trees in front of me, he stopped quartering toward me and gave me a shot at about 75 yards. I don’t prefer to hunt with a muzzleloader, but the December season seems to be about the only time I get the opportunity to hunt deer. The shot rang and after a moment of blindness, the smoke cleared. I saw the deer bolt about 50 yards to my right. I thought I’d missed him, but as he approached a couple lone cedar trees in the open, he made a sharp, confused U-turn, and then crashed down into the dry creek bed to the north. I almost expected him to get up and continue running over the hill, or slip away down the dry bed. Trembling, I reloaded my gun. If he was there, I needed to give him time to die with

How to Hunt Africa on a Budget Chances Are You Can Do It Cheaper Than a Premium Elk Hunt My palms hurt and my knees were bloody from crawling over rocks. My legs ached. My lungs were threatening to quit on me if I had to climb one more mountain chasing a herd that was skittish to the point of paranoia. The guide and I had pursued them up and over so many mountains and glassed them from so many hidden vantage points that I had no idea how much territory we had covered or how we’d ever find our way back to the truck. When the shot opportunity finally came, it was a long one — 320 yards from our spot on a hill to where the bull was feeding on the opposite ridge. “Hold a foot high,” the guide said, and that turned out to be dead accurate. The cows scattered in a panic at the blast, and not long afterward we were standing over a mature bull I had worked harder for than any animal I’ve taken before or since. Sounds like a fairly typical elk hunt, right? Except it wasn’t an elk and I wasn’t

Red Centre Kangaroo Culling: Balancing Ecology and Hunting Practices, Demographics, Legislation System, Associations and Clubs, Legislation and Hunting Seasons The Red Centre, centered around Alice Springs and Uluru, spans 143,000 km² of semi-arid landscape.
