Program opens door to world of hunting Austin American-Statesman Share    
Maybe it's not water-into-wine stuff, but each year thousands of adults and children benefit from a state program that turns $48 into a license to hunt on thousands of acres of otherwise private property. As any hunter can tell you, $48 won't get much in the way of a hunting lease. And, if you don't have a lease or a friend with a big ranch, you aren't doing much hunting. More
Truth is collateral damage to anti-hunters, legislators Ammoland Share
When it comes to asserting the rights of animals, the end truly justifies the means for the animal rights lobby and their minions in Congress and state legislatures across the country. This phenomenon has been on stark display in the United States House of Representatives and in the California Senate over the recent past. More Red Stag Patagonia offers 3 new properties for trophy red deer The Hunting Report Share
Big game hunters who also wingshoot are likely familiar with the well-respected company David Denies Wingshooting, which has been offering dove and duck shoots in Argentina for more than 25 years. And those who are also flyfishermen will know the high quality lodges operated by Nervous Waters, in business since 1984. What you may not know is that these are both under the same umbrella company and have now started a big game hunting operation called Red Stag Patagonia. More
Perspective: Leaving California Western Outdoor News Share
Mike Dickerson, Western Outdoor News field reporter: "There are many things I do not miss about California. I do not miss gridlocked freeways and long commutes. I do not miss gang-infested neighborhoods, a lousy job market and depressed home values. I do not miss brush fires, mudslides, earthquakes or celebrity trials. I knew I wouldn't miss California's nonsensical approach to managing wildlife via pseudo-science, the ballot box and blind-preservationist legislation. One example of seismic-scale stupidity was Proposition 117, which banned hunting of mountain lions in 1990 despite the fact that the cats were neither threatened nor endangered. The ramifications of granting protection to a top-end predator were lost on an electorate which was narrowly swayed by a misinformation campaign waged by the Mountain Lion Foundation and friends." More Illegal hunting results to major decline in wildlife populations in Mozambique Empowered News Share
A new TRAFFIC study finds that illegal hunting and the bushmeat trade have resulted in a major decline in wildlife populations in Central Mozambique, significantly undermining potential for viable wildlife-based land uses and resulting in the loss of a traditional source of protein for local communities. The study of Coutada 9 found that wildlife populations in the 4,450 square km protected area in Manica province are currently less than 10 percent of what the area could support, with several species, including rhinoceroses, Roan Antelopes African Wild Dogs locally extirpated through illegal hunting. More Tell Congress oppose export control amendments to the Defense Authorization Bill NSSF via Ammo Land Share
Due to outdated U.S. export regulations, the firearms and ammunition industry and many other U.S. industries that export products are at a severe disadvantage when competing with foreign companies. Now some in Congress are going to try and stop export control reforms that are critical to helping U.S. companies compete globally so we can restore and grow the U.S. economy and create more jobs right here at home. That's why the firearms industry fully supports the ongoing effort to update and modernize our export controls. More Survival skills: The wild foods that will keep you alive in the spring Outdoor Life Share
When the time comes to practice survival skills, or use them for real, the first question is usually "what's for dinner?" Despite the fact that shelter, water, signaling and fire are more important than food, the menu is the age old subject that most people worry about. When it comes to food, you should be asking what's abundant, nutritious and obtainable with the least expenditure of energy? Spring is one of the leanest seasons of the year. Sure there is plenty of plant material to eat, but it is almost all low in calories. More German bloodhound gang hunts poachers The Local Share
The young bloodhounds — Carla, Sabrina, Lila, Lily and Stella — have broken new ground in Congo, where dogs are not generally used for more than guarding. "The dogs have gained a sort of a heroic status in the park," said Maierhofer. "People are always talking about them and everyone knows them." Maierhofer and his wife Ursula, who are both German police detectives and private trainers of sniffer dogs, worked intensively with the dogs before taking them to the Virunga National Park where help was desperately needed in the fight against poachers.
