Hunting dog survives 50-foot fall into well, rescued by Texas game wardens Maria, a bird dog, was chasing an injured quail when she went missing. Texas game wardens had to get a bit creative while rescuing a hunting dog name Maria who found herself lost at the bottom of a well in South Texas during a recent hunting trip. According to the game wardens blotter, during the course of the quail hunt on a property in Jim Hogg County, Maria had chased an injured bird through a thicket and didn't return, which worried her owners. They began an immediate search and eventually found her trapped about 50 feet down at the bottom of a well on the property. Game wardens in Jim Hogg County, typically tasked with enforcing the state's hunting and wildlife laws, were quick to arrive and used a makeshift pulley system to lower a kennel to the bottom. Inside the kennel, they placed hunted quail to entice Maria inside, wardens said. After some time, the pup eventually moved into the crate. Maria wa

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

Successes in filming beavers in the Belarusian lands RikaNV continues to share successes in filming beavers in the Belarusian lands. This time they captured not only traces of beaver activity, but also amazing shots of deer, which makes their project even more interesting! Filming beavers in the Belarusian lands is not only an opportunity to see these amazing animals, but also a chance to study their impact on the ecosystem. One of the images shows a tree gnawed by a beaver. This confirms the activity of these animals in our region. However, other shots also include deer, which adds variety to our filming and emphasizes the richness of the local fauna. I am happy to share these amazing shots with you and hope that they will inspire you to explore the nature of Belarus.

Vortex Diamondback 10x50 Binoculars Review I recently had the opportunity to use the Vortex Diamondback 10x50 binoculars, and I wanted to share my thoughts based on my experience with them. As outdoor enthusiasts, my friends and I have used a variety of binoculars, so I have a decent basis for comparison. Vortex Pros: Optical Quality: The 10x50 magnification combined with the large 50mm objective lens provides bright and clear images, even in low light conditions. The clarity is impressive, allowing me to spot details from a distance, whether I was birdwatching or enjoying a scenic view. Durability: The build quality is outstanding. These binoculars are both rugged and waterproof, which gives me confidence when using them in different weather conditions. The rubber armor provides a good grip and helps protect the binoculars from drops and bumps. Wide Field of View: I appreciated the wide field of view, which makes tracking moving objects much easier. It’s great for wildlife obser

Due to the lack of electronic control and easy-to-fix nature, the Land Rover has performed well in environments where workshop backup would be unavailable. Repairs can also be carried out with limited resources and limited parts. The Land Rover Wolf was introduced to the Army in 1998 and is still in use today. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/EN2TEpeRhawYaRpv/?mibextid=K35XfP This is splendid news for all Land Rover Defender and Series owners, and for several compelling reasons: 1. The fact that the British Ministry of Defence has chosen to retain these vehicles not only bestows them with prestige but also ensures the continuity of supply chains for parts. And as allo you know, a lot of parts are comoatible with Series too. 2. From an environmental perspective, this is also excellent news. Many of us contend that extending the lifespan of a machine optimises resources and ultimately conserves them. We do not subscribe to the notion that scrapping perfectly functional vehicles to

Set #2 of the FLYING pika! (Please view each image large for details) One of my absolute favorite and most challenging subjects to photograph........the mighty American Pika. These tiny critters the size of a guinea pig, are the speediest and hardest working animals in the alpine zone of the mountains. They are Lagomorphs and closely related to rabbits. They spend most of their days gathering tundra grasses and wildflowers to store in their winter food stashes to be able to survive the cold harsh mountain winters. I spend numerous days and hours each summer up high in the Rocky mountains of Colorado, observing and trying to photograph these little speedsters. Here is the second set of photos. All images captured with a Nikon Z8 and Nikkor 800mm F6.3 lens, some with a 1.4x teleconverter for focal length of 1120mm. Most are captured with a shutter speed of 1/4000 sec, F7.1 or F8, various ISO's up to 20,0000, handheld and cropped.

Pitons, St Lucia These two volcanic mountains are one of the most recognizable - not to mention beautiful features on this Caribbean island. Enjoy the Pitons from the pristine white sand beach at Sugar Beach, A Viceroy Resort. Coral reefs cover almost 60% of the site's marine area. A survey has revealed 168 species of finfish, 60 species of cnidaria, including corals, eight mollusks, 14 sponges, 11 echinoderms, 15 arthropods, and eight annelid worms. The dominant terrestrial vegetation is tropical moist forest grading to subtropical wet forest, with small areas of dry forest and wet elfin woodland on the summits. At least 148 plant species have been recorded on Gros Piton, 97 on Petit Piton, and the intervening ridge, among them eight rare tree species. The Gros Piton is home to some 27 bird species (five of them endemic), three indigenous rodents, one opossum, three bats, eight reptiles, and three amphibians.

A SIXTH SENSE? I returned to the same ranch the following autumn with my two sons with the intent of tagging a couple of those bucks. However, I had no intention of letting them shoot a buck as it ran to the sound of the landowner’s ATV. Even if I did, it wouldn’t have mattered. The deer didn’t come running, preferring instead to wait for the cover of darkness to come to the corn, despite that the ranch’s deer were rarely hunted. Do whitetails have innate ability to know when something poses a risk or when it doesn’t? There’s no way to tell, but it sure seems that way. As Salamone suggests, urban deer seem to know when a human in their woods is hunting them and when he isn’t. That’s why we need to take all the precautions we can, no matter where we hunt. It’s okay to relieve yourself under your treestand, but if you must drive an ATV, park it as far away from your stand as you can. And leave the cigarettes in your pocket until you kill a deer. The odor of smoke might not spook deer

Picking Your Puppy: Traits to Look for in Your Next Hunting Dog Are You Looking for a Hunting Dog Puppy? You wouldn’t walk into a sporting goods store and purchase the first shotgun you saw without doing some background research first, so why then would you skip that step when selecting a puppy that you’ll be hunting with for the next 10 to 12 years? Many hunters make that mistake and end up regretting later. In addition to being your most valuable hunting asset, your hunting dog is likely to become your closest companion. Not only will it share some of the best moments of your life with you, it’ll make many of them possible. You’ll spend hours with your dog during training and in the field, so you want to take great care in choosing the puppy that is perfect for you. Tim Nichols of Fall Flight Retrievers says not every puppy has what it takes to become an outstanding hunting dog. So you need to know what qualities and traits to look for, specifically when it comes to health and traina

Stolen elk antlers and skull returned to owner Taylor Gyllenberg got an early Christmas present when the elk antlers and skull from her trophy bull were returned to her by the Baker City Police Department last week. The elk, which Gyllenberg killed on Oct. 27 in the Sumpter Unit in Oregon, was supposed to become a European mountl, according to the Baker City Herald. However, the memento from her first bull elk never made it to her wall. Instead, after Gyllenberg and her boyfriend prepped the skull and antlers over several hours, she discovered that someone stole the trophy right from the yard of her boyfriend’s home in Baker City on Nov. 18. “I don’t see how someone could take something that they didn’t work on themselves,” said Gyllenberg. “I just think it’s sickening to know that someone could ever take something they didn’t even work to get.” Gyllenberg’s friends gathered together to offer a $750 reward for return of the skull and antlers; however, Gyllenberg didn’t hold out much

This is a close up shot from my living room window in Ancient Olympia, Greece. I have a five month old daughter who adores birds and looking at them got me pondering. Most of them are migratory birds and I am about to embark on a similar move. This is not my hometown, I moved here two and a half years ago, this was essentially the first place I rented. I came here single and in a matter of two months I got married and a year later I got pregnant. A number of adversities have come my way, the harshest of which is my current state of unemployment. We have decided to move to a place far away from here, to my grandmother's place. It's a small cottage but it will be our home by the sea on a Greek island. I wish I could let those birds know where we are moving so they can visit and have a rest. Inner peace and love to everyone

3 Top States for DIY Big Buck Hunters These three stops all have over-the-counter tags and great potential for shooting a trophy buck For a Do-It-Yourself hunter, nothing beats the simplicity of traveling to another state, buying a deer tag over the counter, and then going to the woods. There are plenty of places for us DIYers to hunt like that and probably get a shot at a deer, too. But not as many have strong trophy potential. A 2 1/2-year-old 8-pointer is cream of the crop for most public-land hunting in states like New York, Tennessee, and Pennsylvania. If your personal standards are a bit higher than that — maybe you’re after 3 1/2-year and older bucks — you might be facing long odds in most OTC states, at least on public lands. But shooting a mature buck on public land is within the realm of possibility in a few places, for hardworking hunters. These three states — all with OTC tags —have proven that they can regularly produce mature deer, and have some good public hunting to bo

The Toll of the Wild: Hunting with the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever For those of us who value a versatile, intelligent, and downright tenacious hunting companion, the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever (Toller) deserves a serious look. These red-coated dynamos aren't just pretty faces; they're purpose-bred to excel in a variety of hunting scenarios. What Can a Toller Hunt? While their name might suggest waterfowl is their sole focus, Tollers are surprisingly adaptable. Here's a breakdown of what they can effectively hunt: Waterfowl: This is their bread and butter. Their unique "tolling" behavior (more on that below) makes them exceptional at luring ducks and geese into range. They're also strong swimmers and natural retrievers. Upland Birds: With proper training, Tollers can be used to flush and retrieve upland game birds like pheasant, grouse, and quail. Their smaller size and agility can be advantageous in thick cover. Small Game: Some hunters successfully use Tollers for

The 10 Best States for Snow Goose Hunting Every year, hunters shoot more light geese in these states than anywhere else Even if you didn’t know much about spring snow goose hunting, fields covered with white decoys and parking lots jammed with muddy trailers would reveal hotspots across the country. And for good reason: Depending on the weather and hatch, many areas typically produce year after year. Now and then, however, you hear about a spring destination that surprises you, and some might wonder where hunters actually kill the most light geese. A quick review of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service harvest statistics provides some insight — and a few surprises. Disclaimer: These surveys are estimates and do not differentiate between spring, fall, and winter harvests, and they don’t take into account weather conditions or other factors that might influence success.

Cyprus Federation for Hunting The Cyprus Hunting & Wildlife Conservation Federation was established in 1952 by the then hunting associations of Nicosia, Limassol and the hunting clubs of Famagusta, Larnaca and Paphos. The objectives of the Federation were defined in its statutes and include, among others, the protection, development and enrichment of the Cypriot fauna, the preservation and development of hunting resources in the country within the framework of sustainable management, the promotion of the sport of hunting, the organization of hunters in hunting clubs, the coordination of their actions to improve the conditions for conducting hunting, the development of hunting education and knowledge about the environment as well as the care of hunting dogs. In the context of promoting the above objectives, the Federation also collaborates with other international organizations both in Europe and worldwide, such as FACE (European Federation for Hunting and Conservation) which consists

DON’T ABANDON OTHER FOODS There’s no question deer migrate to oaks when acorns start falling, but even when a majority of their diet consists of acorns, they eat other food. "I have a couple of food plots adjacent to some mature white oaks,” Giles said. “I see deer feeding in the plots all the time, even when there is a good acorn crop. They don’t spend nearly as much time in the food plots when there are lots of acorns, but they will certainly stop for a few bites of clover or oats on their way to or from acorns.” The edges of bean fields also are worth hunting, but find an oak dropping acorns on the edge of that bean field and you’ve found a potential hotspot. Isolated fruit trees, native and planted, draw deer throughout the early autumn, too. Sandiford likes to find fruit-bearing persimmon trees near oaks. “If you can get a combination of foods in a small area, you’ve got a real good place to hang a stand,” he said. Hunting during an epic acorn crop can drive you nuts, but the

In Czech Republic, you can feel like Snow White just by going out to feed ducks on a riverside. There really is a lot of game in the Czech Republic, but hunting is interesting there not so much because of this, but because of traditions. They also strictly adhere to the laws of hunters. Czech forests are overrun by wild boars, which continue to multiply beyond measure. According to hunters, the wild boars have become more aggressive than before. In addition, they use their intelligence to come up with new survival strategies. Boar hunting is no longer considered a hunt, but rather a salvation for trees and even cities. Despite the mass shooting, there are more and more wild boars in the Czech Republic. Animals also appear in cities, including Prague. Wild boar in the Czech Republic is a real national disaster. The wild boar hunting season is the longest, and in some small reserves, such as Blahnik and Koda, it is open all year round. The population of wild boars is growing every ye

3 EASY WAYS TO MAKE ANY WILD HOG DELICIOUS A lot of folks get nervous when you start throwing wild pig into the dinner table conversation. Log onto any hunting forum and the majority of people will say they don’t bother eating hogs for any number of reasons—smell, taste, unfounded rumors, you name it. It’s simply the majority mindset, or at least it was. Where I live in Texas, we’re inundated with these feral critters, but there’s a love/hate relationship at play. I hate that they destroy our hay fields, but I love cooking these beasts and do so on a regular basis. Like me, Jesse Griffiths thinks the pig detractors are ill-informed if not crazy, so much so that he wrote a book dedicated to cooking wild hogs. As the owner of the renowned Dai Due in Austin, as well as the mind behind The New School of Traditional Cookery, he’s been waving the banner for wild hogs since before it was fashionable. And people are beginning to catch on. Regardless, there still are some mental and actual ob

Facts About Badgers Size Badgers can grow up to 20 to 34 inches (51 to 86 centimeters) long from head to tail. The tail adds an additional 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) to its length. Badgers weigh between 9 and 39 pounds (4 to 18 kilograms). Habitat Badgers prefer dry, open grasslands, though they are very adaptable. Some also live in woods, quarries, hedgerows, sea cliffs and moorland. American badgers are typically found in the Great Plains region of North America. They can also be found in the western United States, central western Canadian provinces and in the mountainous areas of Mexico, according to the Animal Diversity Web (ADW) at the University of Michigan. Honey badgers are found in southern Africa; hog badgers live primarily in Southeast Asia, India and Sumatra. The Asian badger extends across Russia and into China and Eastern Europe. The European, or Eurasian, badger spans from Ireland and Spain all the way to eastern Russia, China and Japan, according to ADW. Badgers

Welsh corgi, either of two breeds of working dogs developed to handle cattle. They are similar in appearance but are of different origins. Their resemblance results from crosses between the two breeds. The Cardigan Welsh corgi (see photograph), named for Cardiganshire, can be traced back to dogs brought to Wales by the Celts about 1200 BC. The original type was known as the Bronant and was related to the progenitors of the dachshund. The Pembroke Welsh corgi (see photograph), of Pembrokeshire, is descended from dogs brought to Wales by Flemish weavers about AD 1100. The ancestors of the Pembroke belonged to the group that produced the Keeshond, Pomeranian, and Samoyed. The corgi gained exposure from its association with the royal family of Britain; Queen Elizabeth II has had corgis since her childhood.

The SPAS-12 was designed to function primarily in semi-automatic mode, with the pump-action mode used to reliably fire low-pressure ammunition such as tear gas rounds or less-lethal bean bags. The firing mode is switched by depressing the button under the fore-grip and also sliding it forwards or backwards until it clicks into position allowing the rotating sleeve to open or close the two gas ports. The semi-automatic mode functions with a short-stroke gas piston system. When a shell is fired, the pressure makes the bolt move rearward but the bolt will stop before opening as it deploys a single top locking lug. The gas vents into the barrel and the gas port is located towards the end of the barrel. From the gas port, the gas vents downwards into the gas block where it pushes the piston rearward. Because of the presence of the magazine tube and to avoid the use of a top-mounted gas system, the gas block and the piston are annular, along with the piston spring they enclose the magazine

Alaska’s Mountain Goat Alaska’s other species of all-white, hoofed, large mammal is the mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus), inhabiting steep and broken mountain terrain from southeast Alaska to Prince William Sound and the Kenai Peninsula. Goats are found from near sea level to over 10,000 feet, and in Southcentral they are generally confined to the Chugach and Wrangell mountains, although their range extends into the Talkeetna Mountains, nearly to Denali National Park. Mountain goats have also been transplanted to Kodiak and Baranof islands where they have established secure populations. Billies are similar in appearance to nannies, with a large, stocky shape and an average weight of 200 pounds. They have gradual curving horns. Nannies are smaller in size and weigh approximately 160 pounds, with slender horns that curve sharply near the tip. Goats are relatively abundant throughout their Alaska range, particularly in southeast Alaska, but many goats live in areas that are beyond th

Bear hunting is the act of hunting bears. Bear have been hunted since prehistoric times for their meat and fur. In addition to being a source of food, in modern times they have been favored by big game hunters due to their size and ferocity. Bear hunting has a vast history throughout Europe and North America, and hunting practices have varied based on location and type of bear. Bear are large mammals in the order Carnivora. Although there are only eight living species of bear, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere. The IUCN lists six bear species as vulnerable or endangered, and even "least concern" species such as the brown bear are at risk of extirpation in certain countries. Poaching and illegal international trade of threatened populations continues.

Taxidermy, the intricate art of preserving animal specimens, has long captivated the hearts of hunters and nature enthusiasts alike. Among the bounty of the wilderness, the capercaillie and the black grouse stand out as regal representatives of avian wildlife, emblematic of the untamed forests they inhabit. Their vibrant plumage and majestic postures become timeless reminders of the beauty of nature when preserved through taxidermy. The process itself is both an art and a science, requiring a deft touch and keen understanding of anatomy. Each step, from skinning to mounting, is meticulously executed to ensure the resulting display is a lifelike homage to the creature's former existence. Hunters often seek to immortalize their trophies, capturing the essence of the hunt and the thrill of the chase. Beyond mere decoration, taxidermy serves an educational purpose, sparking curiosity about biodiversity and the ecological significance of these species. As we gaze upon the lifelike represe

The Spinone Italiano: A Hunter's Companion Across Continents If you're a hunter who values versatility, stamina, and a gentle touch, the Spinone Italiano deserves a place by your side. This isn't your hyper-strung, speed-demon pointer. The Spinone is a deliberate, methodical worker, equally at home in the uplands, marshes, or even retrieving waterfowl. Let's dive into what makes this breed special. Quarry: What Can the Spinone Italiano Hunt? This breed is a true generalist. The Spinone Italiano excels at hunting: Upland Birds: Pheasant, quail, grouse, woodcock. Their methodical pace and close-working style make them deadly on these birds. Waterfowl: Ducks and geese.

American Arctic explorer Robert E. Peary in polar expedition gear aboard his ship SS Roosevelt, 1908. In the frigid expanse of the Arctic Ocean, where ice stretched endlessly and the sun barely peeked above the horizon, stood one of America’s most daring explorers, Robert Edwin Peary. It was the year 1908, a time when the world's eyes were fixed on the North Pole, an elusive goal that had captivated the imagination of adventurers for centuries. Peary, aboard his sturdy ship, the SS Roosevelt, prepared for what would be his final and most ambitious expedition to reach the top of the world. The SS Roosevelt, named after the then-President Theodore Roosevelt who had supported Peary’s endeavors, was a specially designed vessel built to withstand the crushing grip of pack ice. Its reinforced hull, thick timbers, and powerful engine made it one of the few ships capable of navigating the treacherous waters of the Arctic. But even with such a formidable vessel, the journey ahead was fraugh
