SPEARFISHING IN TUSCANY AT THE "ISOLA DEL GIGLIO" WITH JACOPO AND TIZIANA What is your spearfishing philosophy? We both love speafishing the big ones in open waters. We both live this passion as a real lifestyle rather than as a sport, we don’t like to call it that way, and we don’t like the competition environment either as it tends to keep the challenge spirit among men. The real essence of this activity instead is diving in to the water to be part of something bigger. Where are your usual fishing spots? We live in Umbria away from the sea, only 110km away is the Adriatic sea but the fishes we like to spear cannot be found in that portion of sea so we need to face a week-end out to get to the gorgeous Giglio island in Tuscany. There we have a small house on rent, a small dinghy that we share with another friend and all the equipment we need to catch big snappers. Which techniques do you prefer? We are used to spear fish with crawling and waiting technique either in shallo

A fisherman with a spear. Mansi, Sverdlovsk Region, Verkhotursky District, 1908. Author: I. K. Zelenov. Photo from the album "The Kunstkamera Archive: Rites, Daily Life, and Faces of Ancestors in Old Photographs” Mansi is a small Finno-Ugric people in Russia, the indigenous population of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug — Yugra. They speak the Mansi language. They are the closest linguistic relatives of the Khanty, and they are also related to the Hungarians. Mansi belong to the Uralic race. The total population is 12,228 people (according to the 2021 census). About 200 Mansi people live in the north of the Sverdlovsk Region. A few live in the northeast of the Perm Region (the Vishersky State Nature Reserve). The combined name of the Mansi and the closely related Khanty people is the Ob Ugra. It is believed that the Mansi ethnos emerged as a result of the fusion of local Neolithic tribes, as well as Ugric and Indo-Iranian tribes that migrated from the south through the steppes and

På trods af at spydfiskeri i modsætning til fiskeri fra en båd, fra kysten og fra is kun kan foregå i åbent vand (hvor der, uanset årstiden, ikke er iltsult og fiskene er aktive), er taktikken af spearfishing er meget forskelligartede, og dens beskrivelse kræver et format bøger. Ofte bruges kun aktive søge- og liggemetoder. Aktiv eftersøgning i åbent vand involverer aktiv dykning og inspektion af undervandsrummet for at søge efter fisk i deres levesteder. Spearfishing taktik i siv og tæt vegetation adskiller sig væsentligt fra åbent vand. En af metoderne er "nesting", når dykkeren dykker til bunden i et skakternet mønster og inspicerer mellemrummet mellem bunden og vandvegetationen. At ligge ned sker, mens du holder vejret og kan foregå enten mens dykkeren er camoufleret, ved hjælp af funktionerne i undervandsterrænet eller uden camouflage. Når man ligger ned, udføres eftersøgningen efter fisk ofte "gennem lyset", eller fisken forventes at nærme sig inden for skudafstand. En af strøe

Sarah Bowmar and her husband Josh are fitness and hunting influencers on social media. They are known in the hunting community for their hunting YouTube channel Bowmar Bowhunting. The Bowmars have been at the center of many controversies in the hunting community. Josh was famously canceled by the woke anti-hunting mob for his spear hunt of a brown bear and lost his Under Armour sponsorship. The couple was also at the center of a poaching case in Nebraska that seems more and more to be a hit on the couple. They are also constantly attacked because of all their African hunting trips. Sarah has reportedly killed the largest ever crocodile with a bow. While the video and official measurements are not out yet, here are the pictures. The largest Crocodile ever caught and placed in captivity is just over 20 feet long. unofficial rumors have this crock close to 18 feet!

Polar bears have long provided important raw materials for Arctic peoples, including the Inuit, Yupik, Chukchi, Nenets, Russian Pomors and others. Hunters commonly used teams of dogs to distract the bear, allowing the hunter to spear the bear or shoot it with arrows at closer range. Almost all parts of captured animals had a use. The fur was used in particular to make trousers and, by the Nenets, to make galoshes-like outer footwear called tobok; the meat is edible, despite some risk of trichinosis; the fat was used in food and as a fuel for lighting homes, alongside seal and whale blubber; sinews were used as thread for sewing clothes; the gallbladder and sometimes heart were dried and powdered for medicinal purposes; the large canine teeth were highly valued as talismans. Only the liver was not used, as its high concentration of vitamin A is poisonous. As a carnivore, which feeds largely upon fish-eating carnivores, the polar bear ingests large amounts of vitamin A that is stored in

Prehistoric women hunted as often as men and were better suited for it, scientists say Researchers say there was no indication that ‘strict sexual division of labour existed Prehistoric women frequently engaged in hunting as much as men and their anatomy also made them better suited for it, suggests a new review of studies. For decades, historians and anthropologists have held the popular view that prehistoric men were hunters while women from these times played their roles in groups as gatherers. Popular culture has also spread portrayals of men as hunters with spears in hand, accompanied by women with babies strapped to their backs and carrying baskets. But a growing body of evidence has suggested many of these conceptions about early women and men are not accurate. Prehistoric women not only engaged in the practice of hunting, but their female anatomy and biology likely made them intrinsically better suited for it, revealed two new studies. One study assessing the physiology

To early humans, hunting was a necessity. The quarry provided not only food from the meat but also clothing from the skins, as well as material for tools from the bones, horns, and hooves. Both archaeological evidence from the past and observation of simpler societies of the present show widespread preoccupation with, and ingenuity in, methods of hunting. These varied, and vary, with the nature of the terrain, the animal hunted, the ingenuity and inventiveness of the hunters, and the materials and technologies at their disposal. Weapons ranged upward in intricacy and effectiveness from sticks and stones used to kill birds and small game to specially shaped clubs and throwing sticks such as the African knobkerry, the trombash of the Upper Nile, and the Australian boomerang; to spears ranging from simple pointed sticks to those with a separate foreshaft, usually barbed, and armed with heads of sharpened stone, bone, or metal. Except in Australia, bows and arrows were universal among earl

SOUTH DAKOTA RANCHERS UPSET OVER NUMBER OF ELK CONTINGENCY LICENSES South Dakota ranchers are angry over the number of elk contingency licenses recently issued across four units, especially because they were involved in the creation of the new elk management plan in 2015. South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks (SDGFP) announced this week that there would be 20 of these licenses in units that span both public and private property, the Black Hills Pioneer reports. The elk contingency licenses are used to “reduce the elk population in areas that have been heavily affected by drought,” said Andrew Norton, SDGFP senior big game biologist. There is not set location for where these licenses are issued. Basically, it’s based upon where the elk are “relative to the department’s objective” so that the elk population can be reduced “in order to improve grazing conditions on forest service land that ranchers lease.” Yet, Aaron Thompson, president of the Spearfish Livestock Association, Eric Jenning

Teen hunter shoots record Virginia bull elk Congratulations to Austin Prieskorn! The 15-year-old hunter is now the proud record holder of the only Boone & Crockett (B&C) bull elk for Virginia with a score of 413-7/8” after his dad, Bo, won a Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF) raffle. As GOHUNT previously reported, Virginia announced its first historic elk season last year following a successful reintroduction effort spearheaded by RMEF. Out of the five tags available, four went to Virginia residents lucky to draw and the fifth was raffled off by RMEF. Almost 32,000 applicants vied for their chance at a once-in-a-lifetime tag, generating $513,000 for the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources general fund, according to B&C. The RMEF tag raised $93,000 and the monies will be used for elk habitat management. Bo was excited to hear that he won. “I haven’t hunted myself in seven years. It’s been all about my boys.” The Prieskorns live in New Mexico and Bo was an outfitter for 30 ye

Animal welfare organisations speak out against German outdoor cat ban Cat owners in the German town of Walldorf have been ordered this week to keep their pets indoors until the end of August to protect a rare bird during its breeding season. The decree is designed to help save the crested lark, which makes its nest on the ground and is therefore easy prey for feline hunters. The bird’s population in Western Europe has declined sharply in recent decades. Although it is listed as a species of least concern in Europe by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). "Among other things, the survival of the species depends on every single chick," authorities in Walldorf said. The rule applies to all cats in the southern part of the town and will be repeated for the next three years from April to August. Should I keep my cat indoors? If you live in Walldorf the decision is no longer in your hands. But for those elsewhere the answer may not be so clear-cut. “Suddenly preventin
