Didn't they follow through with eliminating those feral cows?
I've spent a lot of time in your neck of the woods. Have you ever read "Black Range Tales"? If not, I highly recommend it. You can usually find a copy on Thriftbooks etc. We don't visit much anymore. Even the Gila has been overrun...
I would guess 10-12 but I'd like to know as well. This did make me think a bit about what is "free range" hunting. I wonder how much this animal gained from being spoon-fed alfalfa and apples in a neighborhood? At what point does an animal become more farm critter than wild? The best thing we...
"Preserve" as utilized as a common verb, but you know that. You are deliberately pedantic to be annoying, and your troll effort succeeded. Trolls aren't worth my time.
Imposing limits is somewhat arbitrary, but necessary to preserve hunting. We collectively decide what those limits are via our State agencies.
I am having a hard time figuring out what your argument is, if you have one. Are you seriously saying there should be NO technological limits?
Thanks for your perspective.
I recall reading an article written by an Alaskan who travelled to Eastern Russia to hunt and fish around the fall of the USSR. (I think it was E Donnal Thomas, Jr). What I remember vividly was his impression on the overwhelming abundance of fish and wildlife; like...
I rarely hang anything (besides meat).
All food, utensils, trash, and food-like items (toothpaste) goes into bear canisters (Mine are BearVault brand). They come at a weight/bulk penalty, but to me it is worth not messing with hanging stuff from trees.
I never, ever cook (or even eat so much...
LOL. "I've been told." I believe this was taken off an internet post that I recall...Is OP for real? I don't get the shtick.
I also scrounged up a Palisades archery tag this year. Never hunted it before.
I think we have our work cut out for us.
"Hating" is your spin.
Apparently it is constructive, hence the point of the thread; Arizona took actual concrete action. It's a conversation worth continuing to have if we want to make things better and preserve our hunting heritage. If you are "tired" of it, that's on you. You aren't the...
You ever hear the Iris Dement song, "Our Town?"
Your story sounds exactly like my hometown, albeit a bit larger. We were 2,000 but still a well-rounded little town. When I go back now, I am overwhelmed with sadness to the point of tears. Not to mention the substance abuse and broken...
This bill isn't passing. Read past the headlines. In fact, it will get crushed.
Folks see "bill introduced" and assume it is a done deal, and get worked into a lather. This stinker doesn't have the support.
