The 5 Best Thermal Monoculars of 2024 Everybody wants to know what goes bump in the night, even if it doesn’t bump and even if it’s not nighttime. Happily, thermal monoculars, a new and energetic category of gear, often identify what used to be invisible. They can help you see everything from human intruders on the other side of a fence, to coyotes and raccoons crouching in the dark, to a problematic wire in a household electrical outlet. We’re talking about monoculars, rangefinders, and cameras that use temperature variations, rather than visible light, to form images that can be captured as photographs or videos, or simply delivered to your eye to answer that ancient question: what’s out there? I’ve used this new class of “optics” over the past year to find newborn calves in a deadly blizzard, to find my ice-fishing buddies in the fog, to detect hidden electrical problems that might burn my house down, to hunt coyotes at midnight, and to finally even the odds on crop-raiding feralPost: 29 January 17:54
The Best hares hunter in Canada. Lynx is considered to be the very orderly in Canada who brings the number of hares in the region back to normal. No, if a black-tailed deer, duck or mole comes across on the route, the Canadian lynx will definitely challenge them. But from 30 to 97% of the lynx's usual diet consists of hares. Hunting of the Canadian lynx for hares has become a kind of salvation for the locals. Those who have not experienced the rapid uncontrolled spread of hares or rabbits will not understand the essence of the problem. Here it is worth remembering the problem of rabbits in Australia, for example. Where there is no suitable predator, there is a catostrophic increase in the number of rodents and they simply destroy the nature around. Due to the poor diet, the Canadian lynx had to hone its hunting skills to perfection. If a lynx attacks, it means it clearly knows that it will have lunch. If the lynx is not absolutely sure of the result, it will not even attempt a throwPost: 30 January 00:19

Jagd im Bezirk Krems Land: Wildvorkommen, Jagdreviere, Praxis, Rahmenbedingungen, Jägerschaft, Saisonhöhepunkte, Brauchtum, Fakten Wildvorkommen und jagdliche Besonderheiten Krems-Land bietet eine außergewöhnliche Vielfalt an Wildarten dank seiner einzigartigen geografischen Lage zwischen Donautal und Waldviertel. Rehwild ist flächendeckend verbreitet und zeigt besonders in den Weinbergen oft beachtliche Trophäenstärken. Rotwild findet man vor allem in den größeren Waldkomplexen des Dunkelsteinerwaldes. Die Schwarzwildpopulation hat in den letzten Jahren deutlich zugenommen und bereitet besonders den Weinbauern Probleme. Niederwild wie Feldhase, Fasan und Wildente vervollständigen das jagdliche Angebot. Eine Besonderheit sind die Gamsvorkommen in den steilen Felsformationen entlang der Donau.

What motivates a woman to go hunting? Is it a tribute to fashion, a love of a certain style of clothing, or a desire to be the center of attention? Or is it still that powerful primal instinct that has always been inside the weaker sex? Girls who come to hunt are united by qualities such as activity, respect for nature and discipline. They are all mothers, wives, employees of companies who bear a heavy burden of household and work problems. 🇷🇺 But when these beautiful women go hunting, they open up even more!

Ovo je vrlo indikativna situacija za one koji vole pisati komentare o "šansi životinje", "lov termovizijom nije lov" i drugim glupostima. Da se razumijemo, uskoro je prošla godina dana kako se domaći profesionalni lovci, uz podršku prijatelja iz drugih krajeva, pokušavaju obračunati s ovim jatom koje stvara probleme. Čak i uz dobru tehničku opremu, do sada je bilo moguće uloviti najviše jednu jedinku po uspješnom lovu (kojih nije bilo onoliko koliko bismo htjeli).🌕 I sada je konačno došao trenutak obračuna!🔝 Naš prijatelj Sergej je uspio izvući dva vuka iz čopora, najvjerojatnije je to vučica koja je ostala u blizini nastambe zimi, kada smo dobili vuka i ranili jednog.🩸 Ustrijeljen na istom mjestu gdje je osvojen posljednji trofej.

Odabir maske za podvodni ribolov Međutim, najučinkovitiji način borbe protiv zamagljivanja je naša slina. Da, slina, ako se pravilno koristi, pomaže u rješavanju problema. Slina se aktivno trlja po unutarnjoj površini stakla do karakterističnog" škripanja", a zatim se maska ispere u vodi. Ako ste upravo kupili masku, tada morate ukloniti tvornički zaštitni sloj sa stakla. Postoji nekoliko načina kako to učiniti. Jedno od najpoželjnijih je poliranje stakla običnom pastom za zube. Ako se vaša maska i dalje zamagljuje pod vodom, postoji još jedan način borbe. Ostavite malo vode u prostoru za podmazivanje, a prilikom zamagljivanja jednostavno nagnete glavu i pomaknete je u različitim smjerovima. Voda pere staklo i oni opet postaju prozirni. Na dubini se pritisak povećava, a maska počinje vršiti pritisak na lice, a plivač doživljava bolne senzacije. Da biste to spriječili, morate biti u stanju ispustiti zrak iz prostora ispod maske, istovremeno izjednačavajući tlak izvana i iznutra. ToPost: 12 July 17:48

Brzi su ptice koje se nalaze na gotovo svim kontinentima, osim na Antarktiku, kao i u zemljama poput Čilea, Argentine, Novog Zelanda, uključujući veći dio Australije. Pa ipak, malo tko zna kako ova ptica izgleda i kako živi, unatoč sveprisutnosti. Stanovnici gradova i sela doslovno se svakodnevno susreću s tim pticama, ako ne odlete u toplije krajeve kako bi prezimili. Stanovnici nekih zemalja ove su ptice nazvali"pernate okretnice". Treba napomenuti da su brzaci neobične ptice koje predstavljaju cijelu obitelj, koja uključuje više od 16 vrsta. Unatoč nekim sličnostima s lastavicama, brzi nemaju nikakve srodne veze s lastavicama, jer lastavice predstavljaju obitelj passerina. Ako pažljivo pogledate, možete pronaći vizualne razlike: brzi imaju velika krila, stoga u letu čine manje pokreta. Osim toga, lastavice imaju nešto duže udove, što im omogućuje polijetanje s ravne površine i slijetanje na nju bez problema. Brzi u letu pokazuju pravi aerobatik.

NEVADA MULE DEER POPULATIONS CONTINUE TO DECLINE Nevada mule deer are on the steady decline and wildlife biologists say it’s due to loss of habitat. While fluctuation is normal when it comes to deer populations, the continual decrease in mule deer numbers across the state predicts a much more serious long-term problem. “When I first moved here in the late ‘70s, if you didn’t see 150 or 200 head of deer in a day, you had a bad day,” said Jim Cooney, chairman of the Elko County Wildlife Advisory Board. “And now, if you see 12 to 15 in two or three days … that’s where we’re at.” According to the Elko Daily, deer peaked in 1988 with healthy numbers over 250,000; however, the current statewide deer population is closer to 90,000.Post: 12 October 18:57

Sin embargo, en las últimas décadas, la región se ha enfrentado a graves problemas ambientales relacionados con la destrucción de los recursos naturales. Un paso importante para la conservación de la biodiversidad fue la prohibición de caza impuesta en la provincia. Esta medida provocó una amplia respuesta pública y se convirtió en un ejemplo de actitud responsable hacia la naturaleza. ¿Cuándo y por qué se prohibió la caza? La prohibición de la caza en San Juan se introdujo en 2017. La decisión fue tomada por las autoridades locales después de años de discusiones y análisis de la situación ambiental. La razón principal de la prohibición fue una reducción catastrófica en el número de animales salvajes, incluidas especies raras y en peligro de extinción. Post: 22 May 13:08

How predators get past the trickiest of defenses When a western banded gecko wants to eat a defenseless cricket or worm, it just gulps it down. “Pretty boring,” says Malachi Whitford, an ecologist at Clovis Community College, in California. But if the same gecko goes after more dangerous prey, such as a dune scorpion, it uses a different strategy: It contorts its body as if building up spring-like tension before lunging at the arachnid, Whitford says. Then, as soon as it bites down, the lizard begins thrashing around like a concertgoer in a mosh pit. “Watching it with the naked eye, it almost looks like the gecko has some sort of medical problem,” says Whitford, who led a study describing the new behavior in the Biological Journal of the Linnean Society. “It’s just so fast and so violent.”Post: 15 May 21:24

Lyme disease: Final trial ends 20-year wait for a vaccine against the tick-borne disease How does the Lyme vaccine work? It targets an "outer surface protein" of the Lyme bacterium called OspA that’s present in the tick’s gut. It’s estimated a tick must feed on someone for about 36 hours before the bacteria spreads to its victim. That delay gives time for antibodies the tick ingests from a vaccinated person’s blood to attack the germs right at the source. In small, early-stage studies, Pfizer and Valneva reported no safety problems and a good immune response. The newest study will test if the vaccine, called VLA15, really protects and is safe. The companies aim to recruit at least 6,000 people in Lyme-prone areas including the northeast US plus Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, and Sweden.Post: 12 August 18:11

When it rains, it pours: Bangladesh wildlife trade booms during monsoon The illegal wildlife trade in Bangladesh increases during the wet season due to a shortage of livelihoods and poor surveillance, a study has found. Killing and trading wildlife has been illegal in Bangladesh since 2012, but a culture of hunting means the problem still persists, wildlife officials say. Wildlife markets trade in animals and parts from species such as tigers and crocodiles, with the more lucrative end of the trade thriving in areas with a weak law enforcement presence and close proximity to a seaport or airport. Efforts to tackle the trade are limited by law enforcement restrictions, with the Wildlife Crime Control Unit (WCCU) lacking the authority to arrest suspects and reliant on local agencies for investigations and legal action.

New rule gives Colorado authority over gray wolf management With Colorado’s gray wolf reintroduction deadline looming, the state just received some good news regarding gray wolf management. This week, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) finalized a rule, 10j, that will allow the state to create its own rules for what’s considered a “nonessential experimental population,” according to Channel 9 News. This is a big step for the reintroduction effort in a measure that was approved by voters back in 2020, which requires Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) to reintroduce wolves to the state by Dec. 31, 2023. CPW announced on Twitter/X that “10j gives us gray wolf management flexibility,” which includes determining when it will be permissible to kill a problem wolf. 10j was supported by local ranchers who, per the state’s management plan, will be allowed to kill wolves if they catch one “actively trying to kill livestock,” according to Channel 9 News.

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.

Less Lethal Wolf Ammo? Roughly 30 local ranchers gathered at the fairgrounds in Carey, Idaho, last week to talk wolves. But this was far from the typical wolf discussion. The workshop, possibly the first of many hosted by Defenders of Wildlife, took an unusual and widely unacknowledged tack: Don't shoot the predator, protect the prey. The morning served as a crash course in a host of non-lethal deterrents to wolf predation, from guard dogs to grazing rotations. It also marked the first attempt by Defenders to share with the public lessons learned over the past three years by the Wood River Wolf Project. Defenders of Wildlife spokeswoman Suzanne Stone says the project has field-tested numerous tools for decreasing livestock losses to predators, an approach that replaces the habit of killing problem animals with the concept of coexistence.

Two Idaho wolves kill 143 sheep in freak "pile up" Two wolves are responsible for the deaths of 143 sheep in Idaho’s Boise Foothills. The “pile-up” occurred in mid-May and, following an investigation conducted by the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) and Wildlife Services, officials determined that two wolves “caused the sheep to flee in panic,” which caused them to “crush or suffocate each other” as they tried to escape, according to a press release. During the investigation, Wildlife Services discovered two sets of wolf tracks in the same location as the incident. While permission was given to remove the problem wolves if found, officials were unable to locate the animals. “This sadly exemplifies why wolf management in Idaho can be so challenging,” said IDFG Director Ed Schriever. “People cherish the Foothills for its diversity of wildlife, along with the opportunities for grazing, recreation and other activities.

The issue of feral pigs in California Pigs don't naturally exist in North America. These animals were introduced by explorers as a food source. Several hundreds of years later, they have become a major problem for ecosystems across the United States. Similar to the feral horse issue facing the western United States, California finds itself needing to take action or face seemingly exponential financial losses in crops, property damage, and dwindling populations of native ground-nesting birds. Currently, pigs can be hunted in the Golden State as a game species. The cost of hunting pigs in California will run residents $25.10 for the tag and $52.66 for the annual big game hunting license. For nonresidents, the tag cost is $84.50 and $183.60 for the license. During the 2020 – 2021 feral pig season, 53,923 tags were sold with 1,000 of those being nonresident tags, representing an overall increase of 13.5% compared to the year previous. With only 3,950 animals successfully harvested, there Post: 14 May 17:24
5 Best States for Pig Hunting Looking to hit the road for a hog hunt? These five stops are prime for swine Feral hogs are one of the country’s great ecological disasters. Few pests are more difficult to control, or more immediately detrimental to native ecosystems. In fact, some biologists consider hogs to be the most destructive invasive species on the planet. Though their spread across the United States has been slowed a bit over the past few years, thanks to smart regulations and trapping measures, wild pigs are nonetheless here to stay in many parts of the country. Unfortunately, new pig populations most often arise because people intentionally relocate them in hopes of hunting them. That’s why states without existing pig problems have actually taken to outlawing pig hunting — much to the consternation of local hunters who can’t understand how not shooting pigs is actually the best way to control them. But the reality is, pigs breed too fast, and are too intelligent, to control thPost: 23 May 11:28
Seeking Sun Amountain lion kills an elk calf in a wooded area of Taos, New Mexico. It happens in a small clearing that leads to one million undeveloped acres of Carson National Forest. That clearing is Garrett Vene Klasen’s front yard and he has a front-row seat for the wildest feast he’s ever witnessed. There’s only one problem. He doesn’t have the right camera. “The right camera would have made a huge difference,” says Garrett Vene Klasen, hunter and New Mexico Wild northern conservation director. “All I had was the camera on my doorbell, which is sad.” The shots from that doorbell camera are low-grade grainy and the audio sounds stuffed with earwax.

How the return of poaching threatens India’s tiger success story 50 Years of Project Tiger: India’s wildlife authorities insist poaching is not happening at an ‘alarming’ rate, but campaigners and local rangers say grim incidents of dead tigers being found without claws, whiskers and teeth are part of a bigger and growing problem. Arpan Rai reports from Madhya Pradesh, India The poachers who killed T32 in India’s Madhya Pradesh had a simple plan, and executed it at night. Running wire through a field and applying a strong current, they electrocuted the tigress as she patrolled her territory, beating her to death after she lost consciousness. They then pulled out her canines, whiskers and claws before dumping the body in a village well, weighted down by a stone. T32 was declared missing by rangers, until three days later the stone gave way and her remains floated up to the surface of the well. The grim image of the tigress’s mutilated body floating in the water sent ripples of outragePost: 22 November 17:28
The Lost Art of Hunting I’ve never been in a hunting situation where my success determined whether or not I got to eat that night, but I’ve been close. When I was in college, I usually had just enough money to buy a burger off the value menu on any given evening. And I was OK with that. The only problem besides being a poor college kid was the fact that I much preferred to put that change toward .22 rimfire cartridges and gas to get to my favorite squirrel hunting woods. Ryan, Bandit, Squeaky and I would pitch in for a group squirrel-gathering effort at least once a week when the fall season was open. This also gave us a good reason to skip class. After hunting, we’d prepare wild game dinners right there in the little dormitory kitchen. We ate squirrel and dumplings, squirrel and cream of mushroom soup, Cajun-fried squirrel, lemon-pepper squirrel and of course, Kentucky Burgoo.

No Problem As the ammo shortage continues, these five drills can help you keep sharp ahead of hunting season without burning any powder Some hunters never practice with their firearms until the weekend before opening day, when they take it out and shoot a few rounds to ensure it’s still sighted in. Even if the gun is still on, the hunter’s skills might not be. Shooting skills are perishable, but currently, firing a few rounds can cost you. The ammo shortage continues, and it’s making it difficult for hunters to not only find ammunition, but afford to buy it when they do find it. If you’re the hunter who only has a box or two stashed away, you’ll want to make every shot count, which means there’s not much wiggle room for range practice. Luckily, there are still ways to sharpen your shooting skills without sending a bullet downrange. 1. Dry Firing It’s OK to dry fire most firearms. Dry firing means pulling the trigger without a bullet in the chamber, and it won’t hurt most modePost: 11 April 15:18
Hunters From California report that a safe is good when it really saves. Wildfires in Southern California are a frequent phenomenon, one might say, as common as winter snow in Alaska. The "dry season" lasts an average of six months without any raindrop. Dry grass or forest catches fire, and the wind spreads the flames like lightning. There is not enough fresh water in California. Households often limit their water consumption. It is forbidden to grow vegetables on the territory of the house, because they need to be watered. These problems have been around for many, many years. WHY is the scale of fires increasing every year? And why did the fire take on the scale of a national disaster in January 2025? Experts compete to calculate the damage. The damage caused by fires in Los Angeles today already amounts to 135-150 billion dollars. Someone claims 200 billion or even more. Everyone is discussing the cost of celebs and politicians houses that were burned down or remained unharmed. Post: 22 January 01:55
SUMMER PREP EQUALS A BETTER FALL DEER SEASON Don't wait until the season starts. It’s hard to think about frosty mornings at hunting camp this time of the year. The outside temperature for many of us is still hovering around the triple-digit mark, and the air is so thick you could probably squeeze water out of it if you made a fist. But now is exactly when you need to be putting in the work for the upcoming season. UPGRADE YOUR GEAR Think back to last season. Did a fogged scope cost you a big buck? Did your treestand squeak when you tried to get into position for a shot? Did you leave a hunt early or skip going out altogether because of inclement weather? Now is the time to remedy all those problems. Available stock on sporting goods always seems to be in short supply just before season. Don’t wait until the gear you need is sold out before you start shopping. Purchasing early also allows you to get familiar with your new equipment, particularly firearms and optics.

4 Ways to Manage Buck Fever “Buck fever” is a real thing, and for some hunters it becomes a terrible monster. Just last fall I watched as one of my hunting buddies unraveled at the seams while trying to shoot a mature Coues whitetail. Despite having a stable shooting position and plenty of time, the hunter simply couldn’t execute a precise shot. Adrenaline, doubt and emotion combined to make a steady hold and calm trigger squeeze as elusive as the legendary Loch Ness monster. Adrenaline, when it hits our system, gives us extra strength and energy to combat dangerous situations or attackers, or lift cars off babies, or run and swim faster than we’re usually capable of. It also makes our heart race, our limbs tremble and our vision blur. These conditions make good shooting extremely difficult. Once we’ve missed a shot these problems rapidly escalate, because fear that the buck or bull we’re shooting at will escape sends another big adrenaline dump. Frustration and anger jump into the mePost: 17 October 10:47
Life on the Ledge: Judging Yardage Shooting at Alaska big game presents a unique set of problems for the bowhunter. They live in such diverse terrain; they are frequently hunted in extreme weather and they vary dramatically in size from hundred-pound deer to nearly a ton of bison. And, regardless of size, habitat or weather, one of the biggest challenges of bowhunting is judging distance to the target animal. Mis-guessing the distance to the target, by only a few yards, is perhaps the most common reason archers miss game when bowhunting. Even with high tech, modern bows, there is still plenty of arc in an arrow’s flight path. Without question, the best way to judge yardage is to make use of a modern laser range finder, preferably one with angle-compensation features. However, there are many hunting scenarios when laser ranging is not practical or too time consuming. So, nothing will ever take the place of being able to accurately gauge distance by eyeballing it quickly. Learning to Post: 22 June 12:47
Hunting regulations Czech Republic For hunting in the Czech Republic you need a Czech hunting license (please bring your own valid hunting license from your country too) and a hunting liability insurance from the Czech Insurance Office. Both are organized by our partner for you. Export of trophies The trophies for game caught in the Czech Republic may be imported into EU without any problems. Traceability can be required by the EU authorities at any time, e.g. the hunter must be able to prove where the game was killed. This is the hunting protocol which is created at the end of the hunt. Small game hunting Our partner has been dedicated to small game hunting for years and organizes hunts for pheasants, royal pheasants, wild turkeys and red chickens. All the hunts take place in the hunting area Kakov. Our hunting area with a size of 600ha is located on the edge of the Planice ridge, about 40 km from the city of Pilsen, near the small town Nepomuk between the villages Polanka and PohorPost: 8 June 14:16
10 Classic Hunting Rifles Every Hunter Should Own (Part 2) 4. Ruger No. 1 Single-shot hunting rifles aren’t what most of us have in mind when we think of the classics, but the Ruger No. 1 is one that has stood the test of time. It was introduced in 1967 and is a hammerless falling-block single shot that styled after the British Farquharson rifles and was offered in a plethora of chamberings and developed a cult-like following. In an article introducing the Ruger M/77 in the September 1968 issue of OL, O’Connor says the following regarding the still-new Ruger No. 1: “The production of a single-shot big-game rifle was a bold gamble on Ruger’s part. I am sure that 9 out of 10 market consultants would have said that the demand for single-shot rifles for centerfire cartridges had gone out with the mustache cup and the Stanley Steamer. In spite of all this and also in spite of the fact that Ruger gets a premium price for the No. 1 single shot, his (Bill Ruger) only problem has been to prodPost: 19 May 17:38
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 Post: 15 May 14:59
Obstajalo je mnenje, da lov na opisano žival ni posebej težak. Zaradi tega ga mnogi imenujejo aktivnost na prostem, namenjena amaterskim začetnikom. Pravzaprav zavajajoče. Gozdne divje veverice odlikuje povečana previdnost. Ko se oseba pojavi, so pozorni in se ji na vso moč skušajo izogniti. Vse to skupaj močno oteži iskanje beljakovin.Post: 19 July 13:42
Úzké pouto mezi kolouchem a vodící laní Odstřel velkého počtu laní způsobem šetrným ke zvěři je lovecká výzva, která vyžaduje čas, zkušenosti a loveckou praxi. Problém je v biologii jelení zvěře, neboť má výrazné sociální chování. Jelení tlupy jsou rodiny babiček, tet a matek, ve kterých jsou úzké rodinné vazby. Jelení kolouši mají se svými matkami blízký vztah, který většinou trvá první rok života a ve volnějších vztazích přetrvává po celý život. Vazba má pro koloucha mnoho výhod, z nichž některé vydrží na celý život. Ztráta matky má tedy značné nevýhody.Post: 26 October 10:08
Vzácný dravec luňák hnědý, který byl v Česku vybavený sledovacím zařízením GPS-GSM loggerem, zmizel na ostrově Malta. Signál z jeho zařízení přestal 3. října odpovídat a ornitologové z organizace BirdLife Malta případ ohlásili České společnosti ornitologické (ČSO) s obavami, že dravce někdo cíleně zastřelil. Nelegální lov dravců a dalších druhů ptáků včetně ohrožených je podle ornitologické organizace na Maltě široce rozšířeným problémem.Post: 23 November 17:43

Čestitamo lovcu koji je ulovio sve vrste kavkaskih zurova! 🔥 Prošle godine miniran je Dagestan Tur. Ovaj put strijelac je bio spreman za zaista težak test - lov na srednjokavkaskog i kubanskog tura. Morao sam se jako potruditi zbog Kubanca, ali trofej Central Caucasus Toura se iznenađujuće pokazao najlakšim od svih! Sreća je naklonjena hrabrima! Ispostavilo se da je srednjokavkaski tur star najmanje 16 godina, a duljina njegovog roga bila je 90 cm. 👏Post: 9 January 17:55
