    "Compensatory Reproduction" in Coyotes, why killing them equals more coyotes and less deer

    From our first primitive herding/farming cultures, whose basic formats have not really changed in thousands of years, despite so many new knowledge platforms to operate from, there has been two uncontrollable inherited compulsions. , One is to dam all rivers,,,,the other is to damn all predators.

    "Compensatory Reproduction" in Coyotes, why killing them equals more coyotes and less deer

    “Compensatory Reproduction” in Coyotes, why killing them equals more coyotes and less deer. Pardon me for a moment while I diverge from the topic and follow the wisdom of an old proverb; “Sometimes the only way there, is the long way around”. I did a month-long trip south recently and along...

    Once Again, I Live on the Prairie, Where Buffalo Roamed !

    What a strange, weird world we live in now. I write from my own experiences recalling them as accurately as possible over many decades. And each word I choose to write is of my own personal selection.

    Once Again, I Live on the Prairie, Where Buffalo Roamed !

    When in college as a bio major one of my professors said there were two types of biologists, lumpers and splitters. Since all brown/grizzly bears over the world could breed and have fertile offsprings, there were all one species. So says a lumper. Then looking at all the local variations, a...

    Once Again, I Live on the Prairie, Where Buffalo Roamed !

    I corrected the spacing, took a bit of time. When I write it, there are no big spaces, this was just how it prints out on Huntalk Thanks for the feedback

    Once Again, I Live on the Prairie, Where Buffalo Roamed !

    Once again, I live on the Prairie, where the Buffalo roamed! My first time doing so was north of Cheyenne, Wyoming 40 years ago. To the east in Nebraska the land got flat quick and surrendered to an army of plows. The prairie around Cheyenne, still had enough “Rocks and Rolls” left to beat the...

    I'm Trying to Decide on a New All Around Rifle.

    One of the greatest hunting books of times long gone by was "Tigrero" by Shasha Siemel. He earned international fame hunting Jaguars with a spear in South America. Here is the link https://www.amazon.com/TIGRERO-Sasha-Siemel/dp/1571574700 So, he was a travelling gunsmith and of course earned...

    Pre-64 Model 70s

    Great, My standard weight model 70 ,270 is a tad older than yours. In case you do not know, you can damage them loading them like a push feed action. Round must come up via the magazine. Does yours have the high stock comb for scope use (small monte carlo) or the low one. Yours should have the...

    Savage Revel .22 classic - opinions?

    Thank you, sorry not to get back to you sooner. Lots for me to respond to. First, all my magnums are long gone. The performance edge Barnes bullets offer made them unnecessary for me. My go hunting rifle for MOST deer to elk is a Sako 75 Stainless Synthetic 308 carbine. Stripped it is just over...

    Second time,,,3 shots in one hole. Any similar shooting experiences ?

    Three Shots in One Hole I recently watched a video of Shane Lowry, The Irish golfer, achieve his second hole in one, in his professional career. A couple days later, I went to the shooting range and shot my second 3 shots in one tight small hole group in my life. And I was not using a...

    Ziggy, the WW2 "Tanker" & His Savage 99, The only Big Game Rifle his family ever had.

    Hanging on my wall is a framed collection of WW2 military shoulder patches. Most are gifts from generous GI ‘s. With them are my father’s triple Sgt. Chevrons and five harsh stripes for five years of service in the US Army. During my formative years, I never thought there would be an end...

    Savage Revel .22 classic - opinions?

    The Model 57 is just such a fine rifle and so is the Savage Revel, and yes, the full-length model 39a is heavy for a .22 but it does prep me for a big game rifle. Carrying my little bolt action 511 Remington "Beehive" is such a joy. I get it. If I could start over i would just have a model 39...
