Shooting practice Answering the question of where to start hunting for a beginner, it is worth mentioning such an important aspect as shooting training. In this direction, there are many recommendations, various formulas and schemes: how to determine the distance of a shot by the size of an object, how many bodies of a moving bird to measure forward, how to make a takeaway for preemptive and other theory. However, all this knowledge can be safely thrown into the basket if the hunter uses a lot of time for aiming. Remember that no one can instantly calculate the anticipation, taking into account the distance to the object, as well as its size, density and humidity, along with wind gusts.Post: 27 June 19:48
Scheme to protect hen harriers in England a waste of money, says wildlife group Wild Justice says government initiative to relocate broods away from grouse moors ‘rewards past crimes’ of illegal killing A £900,000 government scheme to “meddle” with nests of hen harriers is a waste of money and rewards those who kill them, a wildlife campaign group has said. The claims are contained in a report produced by Wild Justice and released to coincide with the Glorious Twelfth, the official start of the grouse shooting season, on Saturday. Grouse moor gamekeepers have historically killed hen harriers illegally because they eat smaller birds, including grouse. Since the start of a government brood management scheme in 2018, 98 hen harriers have been confirmed as missingin suspicious circumstances or are known to have been illegally killed in the UK, many of them on or close to English grouse moors.

Blacktail deer are some of the toughest deer to hunt in North America. They inhabit thick forests in western California, Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia where visibility is often very short and hunting season nearly always coincides with bad weather. I got a firsthand lesson in just how difficult these elusive deer are to hunt when I spent the first week of the Washington late muzzleloader season hunting blacktail deer. With a little bit of help and some endurance, it all worked out and I managed to bag my first blacktail deer.Post: 28 March 10:18

Die Lösung: Die Scheu vor dem Schießen verlieren Autorin Annette Schmitt zeigt Ihnen, wie unsere Hunde die Scheu vor dem Schießen verlieren. DAS SCHIESSEN EINORDNEN LERNE Das Schießen gehört auf der Jagd dazu. Es ist der notwendige Schritt, um nachhaltig an ein qualitativ hochwertiges Lebensmittel zu gelangen. Auch das Üben gehört dazu, sowohl müssen die Fertigkeiten des Hundes als auch die des Schützen trainiert werden. Jeder Welpe zeigt anfangs eine gewisse Geräuschempfindlichkeit, doch diese gehört zu einer ganz normalen Entwicklung im Zuge der Reifung dazu. Selbstverständlich gibt es hier auch große individuelle Unterschiede – je nach Persönlichkeit des Hundes. Grundsätzlich ist es nötig, schon den Welpen ganz behutsam an verschiedene Geräusche zu gewöhnen. Verpasst man dies oder geht man in dieser Phase nicht einfühlsam genug vor, muss die Gewöhnung später nachgeholt und eine eventuell sich inzwischen eingeschlichene Schreckhaftigkeit mühsam wieder ausgebügelt werden.

GAME WARDEN RESCUES MULE DEER FROM MUD PIT A mule deer doe is lucky to be alive after being rescued from quicksand-like mud in Idaho. The yearling sunk through a supposed “mud puddle” after she tried to walk across it in a field by Marsh Creek Road north of McCammon during Memorial Day weekend, according to a press release. Fortunately, a homeowner spotted the doe, which was belly deep in the mud and helpless, and contacted Idaho Department of Fish and Game Senior Conservation Officer Nick Noll, who came to the animal’s rescue. Using wooden boards, a shovel, rope and Noll’s 15-year-old neighbor, Cole Gunter, the duo managed to rescue the deer from the sticky mud. Boards prevented them from also sinking as Noll and Gunter used the rope to secure the front and hind quarters of the doe, according to the agency. Post: 17 September 18:04

Jedes Jahr wirft das Reh sein Geweih ab und entwickelt im Frühling ein neues, das größer und beeindruckender ist. Dieser Zyklus symbolisiert die natürliche Erneuerung und den stetigen Fluss des Lebens in der Tierwelt. Die zierliche Statur und das dichte Fell des Rehs, oft in warmen Brauntönen gehalten, ermöglichen es ihm, sich nahtlos in seine Umgebung einzufügen. Die großen, sanften Augen des Rehs strahlen Neugier und Anmut aus und verleihen diesem Wildtier einen Ausdruck von Friedfertigkeit und Harmonie.

Hunting in Brazil: What are the options? Abstract In Brazil most forms of hunting and keeping of wild animals are illegal, although they remain widely practiced and are deeply culturally embedded in many regions. The drivers of such widespread non-compliance are poorly understood and evidence to support future policy decisions is generally lacking. In this paper, we seek to stimulate a critical debate on how to deal with hunting in Brazil by analysing the main factors driving non-compliance with current legislation. This is particularly timely given that several amendments to existing legislation are currently under consideration. Our analysis suggests that, while there are no simple solutions to non-compliance, a targeted suite of the following policy options could improve the monitoring, sustainability and conservation consequences of hunting in Brazil: (i) simplifying the process to become a registered subsistence hunter; (ii) expanding participation in licensing schemes; (iii) invPost: 15 May 22:13

The Mid-Gun-Season Blues: When Times Get Tough Morning Hunts I believe your chances are best during this period when you hunt a morning stand back in the timber. When the pressure is on, an old deer feels most comfortable cruising around or pushing a doe on a hardwood ridge or in a cedar draw or creek bottom. By that time, he should have gone completely nocturnal, but deep woods give him a false sense of security. A buck believes he’s hidden in the trees, but he’s not if you’re posted there. Set up early, and look for a good deer ghosting around at dawn. Then keep hanging tough. Each day into midseason, you’ll hear fewer gunshots and see fewer hunters stomping around the woods. Most of the die-hards who, like you, haven’t tagged out will hunt a couple of hours in morning and afternoon. At midday, things will settle down, and some deer will get up and move. You might still nail a good buck between 9 a.m. and noon.Post: 14 December 18:45
