France revises hunting rules but stops short of Sunday ban France's government on Monday announced tighter rules against hunting under the influence of drugs or alcohol, and protection for walkers and local residents, but stopped short of a hoped-for Sunday ban. Although a weekend "no hunting day" is popular with the public, President Emmanuel Macron is wary of alienating rural voters and adding to anti-government resentment as he launches a major pension reform. Instead, junior environment minister Berangere Couillard said hunting under the influence would be banned, training and safety rules for hunters strengthened and digital systems developed to warn other countryside users away from active hunting zones. Punishments will also be upgraded, including hunters losing their licences if they are involved in a serious accident. "My goal is to aim for zero accidents," Couillard said on a Monday trip to the Loiret department south of Paris. "We want to see better safety, seven days

From Autumn Stags to Winter Woodcock: Decoding WICKLOW'S Hunting Calendar, Restricted Zones, and Expert Strategies for Mountain Game General Hunting Rules and Seasons in Wicklow Mountains The Wicklow Mountains operate under standard Irish hunting regulations with some local restrictions due to the Wicklow Mountains National Park status. Deer seasons run from 1 September to 31 December for stags (red, sika, and fallow) and 1 November to 28 February for hinds/does. Game bird seasons follow national dates: pheasant (1 October - 31 January), woodcock (1 November - 31 January), and duck (1 September - 31 January inland). The region's unique microclimate - with higher rainfall and earlier frosts than surrounding lowlands - creates compressed hunting windows, particularly for birds.

Hunting in Centre-North: Dry flatlands, Sahelian game, Mossi-Fulani tracking culture, survival-driven hunting, and weak institutional control A harsh frontier between savannah and desert The Centre-Nord Region sits at the transitional edge where Burkina Faso's central plains give way to the more arid landscapes of the Sahel. Characterized by wide, flat terrain, thorny bushes, sparse trees, and dry riverbeds, it is a land shaped by long dry seasons and short, intense rains. Historically, this region was home to roaming herds of antelope and abundant birdlife, but today its ecology is fragile, worn by drought, overgrazing, and growing demographic pressure. Despite these challenges, hunting remains deeply rooted in the rural rhythm of life, offering not only sustenance but also a cultural bridge between past and present.

How the Grunt Call Came to Be Realtree pro staffer Brad Harris was grunting up whitetails long before deer calling was cool Brad Harris was high in a tree in Mingo Swamp in southeast Missouri when a 6-point buck walked by at about 80 yards. Harris doesn’t remember the exact year, but it was in the ’70s. He was working in the mines back in those days, and he was among several in a group who loved to bowhunt and spent about every free minute of a break talking about bows, arrows, broadheads, and whitetails. This was back in the day, Harris says, when top-of-the-line hunting equipment was a 45-pound Shakespeare recurve with cedar arrows, and just getting a deer — anything with legal antlers — was a huge accomplishment. One of those buddies at the mine had told Harris that his brother had been hunting and listened as a little buck, standing right under his tree, had made a curious grunting sound. The guy pinched his nose and re-created the grunt himself. Harris had never heard a whitetail

Unlocking the Wild: Hunting Seasons, Licenses, and Prime Times for the DONEGAL Wilderness General Hunting Rules and Timings in Donegal In Donegal, hunting seasons are strictly regulated to balance wildlife conservation and sporting traditions.

Oyster hunting and sorting in 19th-century France was an essential maritime and culinary practice that reflected both the country’s deep gastronomic traditions and the evolving dynamics of coastal economies. While the term “oyster hunting” may evoke images of wild foraging, in reality, oyster production during this period was increasingly a blend of traditional harvesting, early aquaculture techniques, and organized labor—especially along the Atlantic coast and in regions like Normandy, Brittany, and the Marennes-Oléron basin. Oyster Harvesting: From Hunting to Cultivation In the early 1800s, oysters were still largely gathered from natural beds in intertidal zones, estuaries, and shallow coastal waters. Fishermen and oyster gatherers—known as pêcheurs d’huîtres or parqueurs—would wade or use flat-bottomed boats at low tide to collect oysters from rocky shores and muddy flats. This labor-intensive work required knowledge of tides, seasons, and local ecosystems. However, overharv

Hunting season in East Belgium In East Belgium hunting can be carried out in an expansive forested area spanning some 45,000 hectares (111,000 acres). The right to hunt there can be obtained by leasing a hunting ground of at least 50 hectares (123 acres) from the forest owners (the Walloon region, the municipalities or the private owners). This lease runs for 6, 9 or 12 years. It goes without saying that every hunter must hold a hunting licence which is obtained by passing a suitable examination. In East Belgium, game predominantly consists of stags, deer and wild boars, the hunting of which is strictly organised by legislation and the large gamekeeping communities. Contrary to popular belief, hunting is not only organised for the pleasure of hunters but, above all, for the purpose of regulating the number of animals in the forest so that the economic utilisation of the forest is ensured. If game numbers are too high, this can result in substantial damage being caused to the rejuvenat

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.
