Review of the Mossberg Maverick 88: A Solid Choice for Shotgun Enthusiasts The Mossberg Maverick 88 has been a topic of discussion among shotgun enthusiasts, and after spending some time with it, I feel compelled to share my honest thoughts on this firearm. Pros: Affordability: One of the most appealing aspects of the Maverick 88 is its price point. For a quality 12-gauge pump-action shotgun, it remains budget-friendly without cutting corners on performance. Versatility: The Maverick 88 is chambered for both 70mm and 76mm (2.75” and 3”) shells, making it versatile for various applications, whether for home defense, hunting, or sport shooting. This adaptability opens up multiple avenues for its use. Reliability: In my experience, the Maverick 88 is exceptionally reliable. It fed smoothly through a variety of shells, and I didn’t encounter any jams, even after prolonged use. This reliability is crucial for a shotgun, especially in high-stakes situations. Ease of Use: The pump-action mechanism is straightforward, making it accessible for both beginners and seasoned shooters. The controls are intuitive, and it has a manageable recoil that allows for quick follow-up shots. Customization Options: There’s a wide array of aftermarket parts and accessories available for the Maverick 88, enabling users to personalize their shotgun to fit their specific needs or preferences. Cons: Basic Features: While the Maverick 88 performs well, it lacks some of the more advanced features that other shotguns in a similar price range may offer. For example, the stock and forend may feel a bit basic compared to higher-end models, which could deter those looking for a more polished aesthetic. Weight: At around 7.5 pounds, the Maverick 88 is on the heavier side for a shotgun. While some shooters may appreciate the stability this provides, it may not be the best choice for lengthy carry during hunting trips. Limited Choke Options: The stock Maverick 88 comes with a fixed cylinder bore, which limits the versatility in terms of shot spread. For those who prefer different chokes for various shooting scenarios, this could be a drawback. Finish Durability: Some users have reported that the finish may not be as durable as they’d hoped. After regular use, the exterior can show signs of wear and tear, which may be a concern for those looking for a long-lasting firearm aesthetic. Conclusion: Overall, the Mossberg Maverick 88 is a solid choice for anyone in need of a reliable and affordable shotgun. Its versatility and performance make it suitable for various shooting activities, whether you’re a novice or an experienced shooter. While it has some limitations regarding features and aesthetics, the strengths largely outweigh the drawbacks. For the price, it offers great value and peace of mind, particularly for home defense situations.

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 Jennings of the S.D. Cattlemen’s Association and Casey Miller of the S.D. Stockgrowers Association vocalized their opposition to the number of contingency licenses issued during the last Game, Fish and Parks Commission meeting. All three served on the stakeholders group during the creation of the state’s elk management plan. Now, they say that 20 licenses aren’t enough to cover the lost forage. And, in fact, when compared to how much ranchers have to reduce grazing because of drought (10% in the Northern Black Hills and 5% for the forest in general), Thompson called the number “beyond insulting.” He pointed out that 20 contingency licenses “amounts to .276% reduction in grazing impact by elk” and that SDGFP should issue at least 470 contingency licenses “in order to level the grazing population with livestock.” “So, on the one hand you have the ranching industry that has their livelihood at stake in the matter, taking a forest wide 5% reduction in numbers,” said Thompson. “On the other hand, is the department suggesting that 20 additional tags scattered across the forest is adequate to mitigate over grazing?” However, according to Norton, the number of contingency licenses were determined using data from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and information from the U.S. Forest Service, which resulted in a total of five contingency licenses for each of the four elk units in the Central and Eastern Black Hills. NRCS models from Aug. 15 showed “forage production estimates were 80% to 92% of normal within the elk management units,” according to the Black Hills Pioneer. The additional 20 licenses add 4% to the 490 antlerless elk licenses already issued in the Black Hills, allowing SDGFP to hit the 6,000 to 8,000 population objective as underlined in the current elk management plan. goHUNT Gear Shop Further, Norton said that “the contingency licenses are not being issued in the Southern Hills because while the elk population was 90% higher in 2020 than it was in 2016, drought conditions are not as severe,” which makes landowners in those areas “nervous” because they “are aware of the damage elk can do.” Northern Black Hills elk herds are 40% below objective, leading Norton to say that “we’re going to want to increase elk in there, and we’ll be less likely to want to allocate contingency licenses there.” “We’re trying to be specific about where we harvest these elk,” said Norton. “I will point out that two years ago when we flew, we were at 6,500 elk with an objective of between 6,000 to 8,000. If the current elk population was above objective, more contingency licenses would have been recommended, but because we are already below objective in some units, fewer licenses were recommended. As a result of elk numbers being below objective in the Northern Black Hills the past two years, less grazing competition with cattle from elk has already occurred in these units, which will mitigate losses to forage as a result of drought conditions.” Thompson remains adamant that the number of licenses is too small. “Our intent was never to beat down elk numbers for no good reason,” said Thompson. “The blinding disparity between the livestock industry’s response to this drought and the Department’s response to this drought cannot be explained away by quibbling over details, pointing to the NRCS forage availability calculations or any other manner of squirming. The discrepancy in response between livestock’s 5% reduction and the department’s suggested herd reduction of .267% is too great for this to be explained by flawed data and miscalculation.” Because of these discrepancies between stakeholders and wildlife officials, the commission has recommended that SDGFP talk to these producers before announcing plans to the public.

На охоту в Италию. Особенности итальянской охоты Поохотиться, например, в Пьемонт или Лобмардию приезжают особы аристократических кровей и даже королевского рода. Именно здесь можно встретить охотников, соответствующих всем нормам этикета – от особого костюма до веточки на шляпе. Огромное удовольствие получают туристы, которые приобретают для охоты манок на утку лучшие в мире манки на утку. Однако чтобы получить заветную лицензию, которая позволяет охотиться, нужно выполнить ряд условий. В первую очередь необходимо достичь 18-летнего возраста и на руках иметь медицинскую страховку. Кроме того, обязательным условием будет прохождение специального теста, подтверждающего знание элементарных правил охоты, а также умение пользоваться оружием. Без минимальных знаний оказания первой медицинской помощи вам лицензию также не выдадут, пригодятся на тестировании и знания о флоре, фауне и их охране. Ну, а паспорт и две фотографии – это уже формальность. Что нужно для охоты в Италии? Если вы решите обратиться в компанию по организации охотничьих туров, то фирма поможет в организации вашего активного отдыха. В Италии вам лучше обратиться в Amministrazione Provinciale (администрацию) того района, где вы планируете охоту.Кстати, Италию неспроста выбирают для охоты лучшие охотники со всей Европы, ведь только здесь разрешается охотиться на певчих птиц. Однако многие предпочитают в качестве трофея получить кабана, зайца, лису или оленя. Что в Италии тоже возможно, именно поэтому эта страна остается просто раем для любителей охоты. Но охота – это не дешевое удовольствие, особенно, если для этого необходимо выезжать за рубеж. В частности для охоты за рубежом нужно быть готовым выложить не менее 3000 евро на одного человека. Ну, а за сам трофей придется заплатить по факту, если, конечно, вы захотите его забрать с собой. Впрочем, некоторые компании, организующие такой отдых, предлагают трофеи в неограниченном количестве. Например, в охотничьих угодьях Тосканы и Ломбардии, таких как La Centuriona, Montebelleto или Rocca De’ Giorgi. В провинции Алессандрия, например, можно остановиться в самом настоящем лигурийском дворце 16 века, или в охотничьем замке 18-ого века в провинции Павия, что неизменно добавит вашей охоте местного колорита и торжественности.

Hunting Up Above the Clouds It is the view of many hunters that mountain hunts are the ultimate expression of hunting. Here you will be challenged at all levels. Physically, mentally, technically. with many long distance shots, and in your understanding of game behavior. At the same time it is difficult not to be smitten by the magic of the mountains and their wild beauty. Mountaineers often say that they become physically addicted to the mountains, something most mountain hunters wholeheartedly agree with. It is also up in the mountains that you can find many of the most sought after trophies win the world; Marco Polo-Sheep, Dall Sheep/Stone Sheep, Snow Sheep, Blue Sheep, Mountain Goats perhaps the mighty Markhor or one of the many sub species of Ibex; Asiatic, European and Spanish. One thing that most of these species have in common is that they live in some of the most isolated parts of the planet, such as Kyrgyzstan, Alaska, Canada, Tajikistan or even the Himalaya. Mountain hunting often take the character of a pure expedition, which is in itself an experience you only enjoy a few times in your life.

Review of the Pard SA 62-45 LRF Thermal Scope I recently had the opportunity to test the Pard SA 62-45 LRF thermal scope, and I wanted to share my honest impressions based on my experience. First off, the image quality is quite impressive for a thermal scope in this price range. The resolution is clear, and the ability to distinguish between various heat signatures is a notable feature. Whether in complete darkness or during dusk conditions, this scope performs admirably, allowing for effective target acquisition. The built-in LRF (Laser Range Finder) has been a game-changer for my shooting accuracy. It provides quick and reliable distance readings, which is crucial for long-range shots. The range-finding functionality works well, although I found that it can sometimes struggle with reflective surfaces, such as metal objects. One of my favorite aspects of the Pard SA 62-45 is its user-friendly interface. The controls are intuitive, and I quickly figured out how to navigate the different settings and modes. The magnification range is also versatile, providing options for both short and long distances, which enhances its usability in various environments. However, I did encounter a few drawbacks. The battery life could definitely be improved; during extended outings, I found myself needing to recharge more often than I'd prefer. Additionally, the scope is a bit on the heavier side, which could be a factor for some users, especially during long hunts. Lastly, while the construction feels sturdy, I suggest being cautious in extreme weather conditions, as I noticed a few fogging issues during a particularly humid outing. Overall, the Pard SA 62-45 LRF thermal scope is a solid choice for those looking to invest in thermal optics without breaking the bank. Its combination of good image quality, effective range-finding, and user-friendly design makes it a valuable tool for hunters and shooters alike. Just be mindful of its battery life and weight when making your decision. #PardSA6245 #ThermalScope #LRF #HonestReview #ImageQuality #HeatSignatures #TargetAcquisition #LaserRangeFinder #ShootingAccuracy #UserFriendly #MagnificationRange #IntuitiveControls #LongRangeShooting #BatteryLife #Weight #Durability #FoggingIssues #HuntingGear #ShootingOptics #AffordableThermal #VersatileOptics #ThermalImaging #OutdoorEquipment #ShootingSports

How to stay safe while hiking in hunting season. Wearing orange is not the only precaution hikers - and dog owners - are encouraged to take. Fall is popular with all walks of outdoorspeople, including both hikers and hunters. As New York’s hunting season picks up steam and daylight hours dwindle, hiking and biking advocates urge those exploring the woods recreationally to take extra precautions so as to maintain the safety of themselves, their pets and hunters. “Hunting is an activity that’s quite popular and has a long heritage here,” says Andy Mossey, Stewardship & Advocacy Coordinator for The Catskill Center. “As people are getting out and recreating, we should be prepared that we’re sharing the woods with hunters.” Wear orange Hunters are required to wear orange or pink when hunting with a firearm. So, too, should hikers and bikers. Maria Bedo-Calhoun, president of the 3500 Club, says a recent hike raised some alarms for her. “I was out hiking yesterday, and it didn’t seem like we saw a lot of people in orange,” she says. Mossey says he recommends that during peak foliage season, when orange is common in the woods, people also incorporate a bright cyan blue. “Do a blue shirt or backpack,” he says. “And rocking an orange hat is really important.” Keep dogs in orange and on leash Mossey says in the past few years, it’s been dogs, not people, that are more commonly mistaken for a deer or bear. He urges dog owners to be particularly mindful. “Especially if they happen to be a mid-to-large size dog that’s darker in color, they should definitely be wearing a reflective, bright vest.” Orange reflective dog vests can be found in any local pet supply store or online. It’s also crucial to keep dogs on leash to control their running through leaves and underbrush, which could confuse hunters. Stick to daytime hikes and rides Hunters are particularly active at dawn and dusk, when deer are as well. To optimize safety, Scenic Hudson advises hikers and bikers to limit their outdoor activities on wooded trails to prime daylight hours. Stay on established trails Established trails are the best place to hike during hunting season. “While it may be enticing to go for those bushwhack hikes this time of year, I typically recommend sticking to peaks with trails, and trails that are somewhat busier,” says Mossey. And although some hikers occasionally contact private landowners to ask if they can hike despite no trespassing signs, Bedo-Calhoun discourages this during hunting season, when private landowners may be more wary of people on their property. “If you’re wanting to do a specific hike and are calling to ask for permission, just be aware it might be best to just wait until [hunting] season is over,” she says. https://www.timesunion.com/hudsonvalley/outdoors/article/How-to-stay-safe-while-hiking-in-hunting-season-16528058.php

Review of the Orsis 120 .308 Win Rifle As a passionate hunter, I always look for firearms that provide reliability and precision in the field. I've had the opportunity to use the Orsis 120 .308 Win rifle for a while now, and I want to share my thoughts on it both the pros and the cons based on my experiences. Pros: Accuracy: Right off the bat, the Orsis 120 impressed me with its accuracy. The .308 caliber combined with the rifle's design allows for tight groupings at distances up to 300 yards. Whether I was at the range or out in the field, I felt confident in taking shots. Build Quality: The craftsmanship of the Orsis 120 is noteworthy. The materials used feel robust, and the rifle has a solid, well-balanced feel in hand. The stock's ergonomic design makes it comfortable to shoulder, which is especially important during long hours in the field. Customizability: This rifle offers a variety of mounting options. I appreciate being able to customize it according to my preferences, whether it’s adding optics, bipods, or other accessories. Recoil Management: The recoil on the .308 Win is well-managed thanks to the design of the stock. As someone who has used rifles with much harsher recoil, I found the Orsis 120 quite pleasant to shoot. Reliability: In the conditions I've tested it mud, rain, and cold it has performed admirably without any failures to feed or fire. This reliability gives me peace of mind when I'm out in the field. Cons: Weight: While the build quality is a pro, it does contribute to the overall weight of the rifle. For extended field hunts, especially in rugged terrain, it can feel a bit heavy after a while. A lighter option might be preferable for those who find themselves hiking long distances. Price Point: The Orsis 120 is not the most affordable option available. Although I believe it offers good value for the performance it delivers, it's essential to consider your budget, especially if you're a novice hunter. Stock Adjustment: While the stock is comfortable, I found the adjustment options limited. I would have loved more customization in terms of length of pull to perfectly fit it to my stature. Availability of Ammunition: Although .308 Win is a popular caliber, in some local shops, I’ve occasionally found it challenging to source the ammunition, particularly during hunting season. Learning Curve for New Users: For those new to hunting or firearms, the Orsis 120 may require some time to get accustomed to. The features and customizability can be overwhelming for beginners, though it’s undoubtedly rewarding once you get the hang of it. Overall, my experience with the Orsis 120 .308 Win rifle has been very positive. Its strengths greatly outweigh the drawbacks, particularly for seasoned hunters looking for precision and reliability. If you are willing to invest both financially and in time to get comfortable with it, the Orsis 120 can be an excellent companion for your hunting endeavors. #Orsis120 #308Win #rifle

Ontario set to expand areas where dogs can learn to hunt live coyotes in penned areas Ontario wants to expand a licensing regime that allows residents to unleash dogs in an enclosed area to teach them how to hunt captive coyotes, foxes and rabbits. Hunters say there is a growing demand for the dog sport, which is often referred to as training and trialing, while animal advocates call it a cruel practice for the captive prey. The province’s natural resources and forestry minister said the government wants to allow more of the hunting facilities to prevent the sport from moving underground. “These facilities are going to become less and less over time unless we take some level of intervention,” Graydon Smith said in an interview. “The one thing that we also wouldn’t want to see is in the absence of these facilities that dog owners and their handlers are out doing this on other private land or Crown land where there could be unwanted interactions with both people and wildlife.” In 1997, then-premier Mike Harris’s Progressive Conservative government began phasing out the practice by ceasing the issuance of licenses required to operate dog trial areas in the province. It also made it illegal to sell or transfer those licenses. At that time there were upwards of 60 such areas across Ontario. They are all on private property and must be completely enclosed. There are now only 24 licensed train and trial areas across the province. The province has proposed to grant new licenses through a one-time 90-day application period and allow licenses to be transferred to new owners, a summary of proposed changes on the Environmental Registry of Ontario shows. The prey that will be hunted, usually coyotes, must be caught legally, often through traplines, the registry says. “This isn’t about active hunting or anything like that,” Smith said. “This is about animals that are bred for this purpose.” The government’s proposals were sent out for public comment in early April and close on May 18. The proposed changes are part of an omnibus bill tabled in early April called the Less Red Tape, Stronger Economy Act. John Bell, the president of the Ontario Sporting Dog Association, said Wednesday at a legislative committee studying the bill that the closure of dedicated training and trialing areas have forced hunters to “run their dogs” in the wild. Christine Hogarth, the parliamentary assistant for the solicitor general, who is in charge of animal welfare in the province, pressed Bell on the safety of all animals in the training and trialing pens. Bell, who owns a large pen for the sport and trains his dogs to hunt coyotes, said there are rules in place for animal safety. “The regulations call for us to have brush piles, dens, or man-made escape units, we call them pods,” Bell said. He has built pods on his own 225-acre pen that includes concrete culverts leading to buried 45-gallon drums that are vented above, he said. The pods are baited with food so the coyotes learn where to hide. “If they are in danger, they’re in the ground,” he said. “And I can assure you there’s not very many dogs going to go in a 10-inch culvert when there’s an alligator at the other end.” There are now 33,000 members in the Ontario Sporting Dog Association, which lobbied the government over the past year on the training and trialing licenses. The dog sport also has competitions. Judges stand throughout the enclosures — some are hundreds of acres in size — to score how well dogs are tracking and hunting down coyotes. The first dog trialing competition in Ontario took place in 1887, Bell said. The dog trial proposal also has the support of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters. “This has been a priority for us for since the beginning of the changes in 1997,” said Kristen Snoek, a wildlife biologist with the federation. But Camille Labchuk, the executive director of advocacy group Animal Justice, argued the entire practice is inhumane. “They do some of these contests where dogs chase terrified coyotes around an enclosed pen, and they also train the dogs to kill the coyotes so that they can later use those dogs for hunting,” she said. She said the current Doug Ford Progressive Conservative government could learn from the Harris government in the late 1990s. “The Harris government did a number of things to protect wild animals from some of the worst hunting lobbyists by ending the spring bear hunt and phasing out penned coyote hunting,” Labchuk said. The Liberal government reintroduced the spring bear hunt in Ontario as a pilot program in 2014, which Ford’s government made permanent in 2021.

Webley Scott 812 Semi-Automatic Shotgun (12/76) Review I recently had the opportunity to use the Webley Scott 812 semi-automatic shotgun chambered in 12/76, and I would like to share my impressions based on my experiences with it. Build Quality and Design From the moment I picked it up, I noticed that the Webley Scott 812 is built with a solid and robust construction. The shotgun features a traditional design, which is visually appealing with its polished wood stock and blued metal finishes. The fit and finish are commendable, giving it an air of classic elegance while ensuring durability. The semi-automatic mechanism operates smoothly, showing that the craftsmanship behind this shotgun is impressive. Ergonomics and Handling The ergonomics of the 812 are well thought out; it fits comfortably in the shoulder and is easy to maneuver. The weight distribution feels balanced, making it manageable during extended shooting sessions. The grip is comfortable and allows for a firm hold, which is essential for maintaining accuracy. I found it easy to cycle through rounds, even in quick succession, thanks to the inertia-operated system. Performance In terms of performance, the Webley Scott 812 did not disappoint. It cycles a variety of loads without any issues, from light target loads to heavier game shells. The recoil management is quite impressive; even with the more powerful loads, the shotgun absorbs the recoil well, allowing for quick follow-up shots. On the range, I experienced tight patterns and good accuracy, making it suitable for both recreational shooting and hunting scenarios. Versatility The versatility of the 812 is one of its strong points. It handles a range of scenarios well, from clay shooting to field hunting. This shotgun fits into multiple roles comfortably, which is a big advantage for someone looking for a reliable all-purpose firearm. Its ability to accept different chokes also allows for customization according to the specific needs of the shoot. Maintenance and Care Maintenance of the Webley Scott 812 is straightforward. The disassembly process is easy, making cleaning and maintenance a hassle-free endeavor. Regular cleaning will ensure its longevity and optimal performance, and the materials used seem resistant to wear and tear, which adds to its appeal. Drawbacks While there is much to like about the Webley Scott 812, there are a few drawbacks to consider. The weight may be on the heavier side for some users, which could be a concern during all-day hunts or long shooting sessions. Additionally, while the aesthetics are appealing, some may find the traditional look less modern compared to other options on the market. Finally, as with many semi-automatics, the initial cost can be higher, which might be a consideration for budget-conscious buyers. Conclusion Overall, the Webley Scott 812 semi-automatic shotgun in 12/76 is a strong contender in its category.

Промысловая охота Особенность промысловой охоты состоит в том, что это не хобби, а профессия. Охотник добывает мясо для дальнейшей продажи. Реализуются также шкурки добытых зверей и другая продукция, полученная в результате охоты. Этот вид деятельности служит для заработка, а не для поиска удовольствия в свободное время. Промысловая охота — довольно тяжелый труд. Это занятие требует немалых знаний природы, поведения животных. Охотник должен быть профессионалом в своей сфере. Промысловик может применять некоторые приспособления для ловли, которые не разрешены любителю. Часто используется помощь собак. Для того чтобы заниматься данным промыслом, охотник должен заключить договор с работодателем (охотничьим угодьем) и получить специальное разрешение.

Picking the Best Rifle and Caliber for Pig Hunting Do you need a magnum setup or a fast-shooting semi-auto? Probably, your deer rifle will work just fine Pig Reality There’s a reason gun nuts love pig hunting. In southern states like Texas and Florida, hogs aren’t subject to many game laws, which means you can hunt them with about whatever you please. If you have a magnum rifle that never sees the light of day because, after buying it, you realized cracked clavicles are no fun at all, you can use it on pigs. In fact, some of the advice out there suggests that you need a really big gun for hog hunting, because you never know when a true Hogzilla might make an appearance. On the other hand, plenty of would-be hog hunters show up with high-capacity semi-autos and visions of a mag dump against a marauding horde of pork. Those rifles are fun to shoot and plenty accurate enough, but unless you’re shooting from a helicopter, they rarely give you much of an advantage while pig hunting. Truth is, most “Top 10 Guns for Hog Hunting” lists would be pretty boring if we just wrote, “bring your deer rifle,” but if you’re going hog hunting for the first time, that’s exactly what you should do. Here’s why.

Cougar killed in Buffalo County, DNR says MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - A cougar was killed in western Wisconsin Saturday, and the hunter involved claims it was in self-defense. The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources says an archery deer hunter found the cougar while hunting, and felt like they were in danger. The hunter then shot the cougar and self-reported the incident to the DNR. Cougars are a protected species in Wisconsin, so the DNR conducted an investigation. The agency says no charges will be filed against the hunter. The DNR is not certain if there is a cougar population in Wisconsin and says they may be migrating from the west. The DNR receives 15-20 verified reports of cougar sightings every year.

Albania's Hunting Ban: Birds and Mammals Get a Two-Year Break Vast numbers of European birds and other wildlife will be spared from illegal slaughter, thanks to a two-year moratorium on all hunting enacted by the government of Albania. The Balkan country, which lies along a major migratory flyway, encompasses wetlands and other habitats that provide crucial refueling stops for millions of migrating birds. But poor law enforcement, a surge in gun ownership, and an influx of foreign hunters had made Albania essentially a year-round shooting range. Targets were not just game species but also eagles, cranes, shorebirds, and even small songbirds. "Albania was a death trap for migrating birds," said Gabriel Schwaderer, executive director of the conservation organization EuroNatur. It wasn't just birds that suffered, according to Schwaderer. To study the critically endangered Balkan lynx, EuroNatur set up automatic cameras in mountainous areas, documenting all passing animals. Mammals such as roe deer and chamois that should have been recorded in significant numbers were rarely spotted. "This shows that game animals are in very, very low densities," Schwaderer said. The new law, approved on January 30, suspends all hunting licenses and use of hunting areas for two years. The government will use this hiatus to study ways to reform conservation regulations and control what had become almost complete lawlessness. Hunters in Albania have long been unafraid to shoot anything that came within range—even in national parks, where wealthy hunters, the majority of them from Italy, bribed poorly paid rangers to serve as guides. Election, Exposure Prompt Action While many Albanians, including a substantial number of hunters, realized that the situation had to change, the government showed no interest in strengthening conservation laws, or even in enforcing the regulations that were in place. But elections last June brought a new party to power, with government ministers more sympathetic to conservation. Spase Shumka, a board member of the environmental group Protection and Preservation of Natural Environment in Albania, said an article by writer Jonathan Franzen that appeared in the July 2013 issue of National Geographic ("Last Song for Migrating Birds") "very much had an effect" on the debate over hunting. "The National Geographic story served as a main reference," Shumka said. "People distributed the article in the ministries, and it was received very positively. It fit in very well with the transitional government period." Shumka said he and others in Albania "are optimistic that things will change positively because, for the first time, in this law we have effective integration of enforcement." Before, responsibility for regulating hunting fell solely on the Ministry of Environment, which had little power. "People who were caught illegally hunting or camping or cutting wood in a protected area would be fined, but only one in a hundred would actually pay the fine," Shumka said. "Now the laws will be enforced in cooperation with the state police, which is very important. It's the only authority which has power." In addition, the law implementing the hunting moratorium requires the cooperation of the Ministry of Finance. "This will mean additional funding for the Inspectorate of Environment," Shumka said. "It's really an impressive and groundbreaking decision that Albania took," Schwaderer said. "I can imagine that some of the hotel owners are not so happy, because probably they will have fewer visitors, especially hunters from Italy. But on the other side, they have a great opportunity, because only if they stop this crime will they receive bird-watchers and other visitors interested in ecotourism."

Macrozamia bush flavour for Australian aborigine hunters. Macrozamia are palm-shaped, dioecious plants with a usually unbranched trunk with several or many leaves. The leaves of the macrozamia are pinnate, pubescent, at least when young. Young macrozamia plants can differ significantly from adults in leaf details. The seeds of the macrozamia are almost spherical to oblong or elliptical in shape, with a red or, less often, yellow, orange or brown fleshy outer sarcotesta. Most parts of the macrozamia are toxic. Various species are the cause of livestock poisoning. The seeds of the macrozamia are poisonous, but the aborigines know how to handle them to remove the poison, and thus take advantage of the large amount of food provided by a single plant. Macrozamia seed cones form after some fire. Male and female seed cones form on separate plants, and large female seeds mature when they turn red or yellow. Seeds of macrozamia are a good source of starch, but when eaten without processing, they are poisonous. The Australian aborigines crushed and soaked the macrozamia seeds in water for a week, changing the water daily. Then tortillas were made from the pulp, and it was also fried on hot coals. An Aboriginal woman digs the ground in search of food next to a Macrosamia palm tree, the nuts of which can be used to make flour. Australia, 1955. Photographer: Richard Harrington

Neue Kampagne räumt mit Vorurteilen gegen die Jagd auf Jagd Österreich startet eine landesweite Informationskampagne über die Kernwerte der Jagd und deren Bedeutung für die Gesellschaft – unter dem Motto: „Das ist Jagd“ Wien, 04.07.2023 – Seit einigen Jahren nimmt die Naturentfremdung stetig zu, während das Wissen um die Jagd insbesondere in der städtischen Bevölkerung an Bedeutung verliert. Dies führt zu einem Mangel an Bewusstsein, zu Vorurteilen und letztendlich zu einem fehlenden Verständnis für die Jagd und die Jägerschaft. Um dieser Entwicklung entgegenzuwirken, hat Jagd Österreich beschlossen, die Leistungen der Jagd wieder stärker ins Bewusstsein der Öffentlichkeit zu rücken und startet eine österreichweite Informationskampagne.
