Issues of Forest and Stream, Rod and Gun from 1878, 1879 and 1881. This was after Rod and Gun was folded into Forest and Stream, but half a century before Forest and Stream was swallowed up by Field and Stream. The final issue of Field and Stream was in 2015. #outdoors #hunting #fishing #vintage #antique #magazines #history

Deep down in my watery lair
I sing a song of sad despair,
For I’m endangered by your hand.
Though hunting me is mostly banned,
Each time I breathe I’m facing fear.
And in the dark depths, you can hear
Echoing through pelagic halls,
My sonorous, lamenting calls.

A nice tom has moved in to take on the extra duties. 4 hens just out of frame.
Various training courses. Various arduous licensing processes. A variety of expensive equipment. A variety of distant trips and many unsuccessful attempts over years.
Finally a successful turkey harvest.
Hours of careful processing to produce a small quantity of The Most Expensive Turkey in the World™
The inedible portions get fed to the crows in the backyard.
The MOST EXPENSIVE CROWS IN THE WORLD™.

The #Ontario Government is proposing amendments to the Fish and #Wildlife #Conservation Act to allow new licenses for facilities that use captive foxes, coyotes and rabbits as bait to train #hunting dogs.
There are currently 24 of these Train and Trial facilities in Ontario. In 1997 the decision was made not to allow any more to be created, however the Ontario government proposes to change this decision. Petition.
Ontario set to expand areas where dogs can learn to hunt live coyotes in penned areas
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ontario-expand-dog-trialing-areas-1.6833693?cmp=rss
"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, ... training and trialing, while animal advocates call it a cruel practice for the #captive prey(???)."

Fri-Sat turkey #hunting was a washout. All hens, no beards. I will try a different spot next time.
But lots of other interesting birds and sounds.
And a spectacular 20C temp swing, from hot'n'buggy, to cold, back to hot'n'buggy.
A few weeks left. Maybe #fishing will be better this year. High water and a cool May will be good for the Rideau and might keep some bass out of the rapids.

I really should apologize for saying if wouldn't want to have a beer with #Tucker because I would, but saying that wouldn't have allowed my story to flow.
I wouldn't want to have a beer with Tucker when he was on #crossfire but I'd jump at an opportunity to buy him one now lol.
I suspect I'm the one who's changed more than he has. Heard he was into #hunting n #fishing which is A Okay I'm my book.

Taking a pass on the OFAH's call to support more licensing of "dog training & trialling areas", since it looks largely about fox hunting.
To me, fox hunting is prolonged and cruel, nobody eats fox and that technique is not pest control.
Among the worst of #hunting traditions, except for the dogs.

The #AR-15 is the best-selling rifle in the United States.
Almost every major gunmaker now produces its own version of the weapon, which dominates gun dealers’ walls and websites.
Critics claim that the military-style gun has no legitimate civilian use — yet about 1 in 20 Americans own one.
So who chooses to buy an AR-15, and why?
The Washington Post and Ipsos asked nearly 400 AR-15 owners to explain their reasons for having the weapon, what they use it for and how often they fire it.
Compared with Americans as a whole, AR-15 owners are significantly more likely to be #White, #male and between the ages 40 and 65. They’re also more likely to have #higher #incomes, to have served in the #military and to be #Republican.
And AR-15 owners are more likely to live in states former president Donald #Trump won in 2020 than adults overall.
#Self-#defense was the most popular reason for owning an AR-15. Other popular answers included #recreation, #target shooting and #hunting, while some pointed to owning an AR-15 as their #Second #Amendment right

Warmer winter temperatures cansed by climate change are affecting the ability of First Nations in Canada to hunt, fish, and forage for traditional foods. These foods are needed to ensure good nutrition and for combatting the high rate of food insecurity among tne many Indigenous people who live on reserves.

Bone #witchcraft post!
Do you feel humbled, coming across the #bones of a life that's gone by?
Life in the mountains means we have far more opportunity to see #death first-hand, to reach out and be taught by it.
Cities are too fast-paced for me- I do not have enough time to pull the pigeon from the road before the bus ravages its tiny body, nor to take the kitten that sickness claimed before the sanitary workers dispose of it like it was trash. I'm sure others who do #spiritwork thrive just fine there. Just not my style.
I much prefer the forest, because here, death lingers. The song thrush will melt into the earth that fed it, and its feathers may come to be the nest bed of a fresh clutch of eggs. The old fox will go to sleep in her den and wake in a different world, the snow covering her home's entrance until it's warm enough for the critters to nourish themselves on the body she left behind. We see death, sometimes invite it in- be it #hunting or culling livestock. We honour death and the life it brings.
This beautiful lady was a life. An ewe that likely bore several lives herself, before death took her. I have a special place in my heart for sheep. My people have lived alongside them for so long that maybe it's in our blood by now. She wanted to come home with me, to sit near me and the other unseen friends I keep. How could I say no?
I brought her home, meaning to dye her #skull with coffee to help the myriad textures of her bone steal the show with more contrast, but that's another post altogether.
#deathwork crew, this one's for you.

If you're doing something violent that doesn't have a necessity, the act itself cannot be justified. When there's no justification, it makes the act immoral.
If that description is too advanced, here's something a bit more easy. Would you want someone coming into your home and murdering you and your family?

#Hunting is an #archaic #sport.
In my area, we have more land, and the duck hunting clubs help fund the west-coast #flyway. So, next to every #preserve are #hunting clubs.
We go out to watch the #cranes and #geese #migrate, which is vey cool, but in the background there’s always gunfire. Depressing.
In our increasingly urbanized world, #hunting is something that is too easily misunderstood and even caricatured, particularly by those who never lived with it as part of their lives or communities; which is why I was so pleased to see that @themitpress has added a volume about it to their Essential Knowledge series.

@PStyleOne1 This is the type of #hunting that I support.
One of my personal faves: four hunters hopped a fence from one piece of public land to another, but they crossed at a corner, where two private parcels met the two public ones. Since a mathematically perfect zero-point crossing is impossible, one private landowner sued the hunters for tresspassing through private airspace.
This set in motion a zany courtroom drama over the course of @thatsMohrlikeit's subsequent reporting.

Hello all. Here's my #introduction. I'm a soil scientist studying hydric soils, #wetlands, & #roots. I'm an associate professor at Kansas State U. in a teaching & research position. I teach/coach intro #SoilScience, #soil & #water #conservation, & #SoilJudging. I am an #OpenTextbooks author & promoter of #OER. I am also a #cyclist & #BikeCommuter advocating for more pedestrian & bicycle friendly spaces. I also enjoy #DadLife, #camping, #fishing, #homebrewing, #hunting, #diy, & #homeimprovement.
So, on that note, #introduction / #introductions time. Repurposing the one I wrote for mastodon.social with some minor edits. I’m not usually a hashtag type of person, but I’m told that they make it easier to connect with folks on other instances with common interests.
Hi, I’m Andrew, and I’m *bad* at #smalltalk. I like #dadjokes #badjokes and #puns. Fortunate enough to be from #Texas but not terribly happy with where my state is headed. #Parent to two difficult but wonderful toddlers.
#Computers and #tech are a both a hobby and a career, I work in #IT doing desktop support but am working towards #sysadmin / #infosec . Passably fluent with #windows #macos and #ubuntu, and a little bit of a lot of things running in my #homelab . I do a good bit of #3dprinting either toys for my kids or toys for me. Back burner hobbies include #hamradio (Amateur Extra that I need to retest for soon), #fishing #hunting and other #outdoors activities.
Hashtag list of things I might post about in no particular order:
#servicedesign
#userexperience
#innovation, #leadership, and #culture from a #design perspective (my MDF thesis topic)
#auspol (progressive)
#government and #publicsector (how it works, why it does what it does, Australian context vs. elsewhere, perspectives from a 30-year career in and around government)
#bushlife (we live on 100 acres 25km from the nearest town)
#offgrid (our journey towards it)
#outdoors and #survival (I'm a journeyman outdoors person)
#archery (both field - Olympic kind - and compound/hunting)
#righttorepair and #handyperson things
#conservation of environment and native species (including feral species management and using a wide range of approaches including ethical #hunting methods)
#biodiversity (particularly the animals and plants on our place)
#sustainability (waste, reuse, protection, shifts)
#gaming (especially old-school table top/board games)
#ttrpg (I played #DnD for the first time in 1980)
A wealth of random other stuff
Partying like it's 2006 on Twitter, here's my #introduction post:
Terminally online ex-pat #Tasmanian with a head removal scar to prove it. I've lived and travelled in a bunch of places.
I've spent the past 20 years as a service designer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service_design) with expertise in #government and the #publicsector, #userexperience, #servicedesign, #orgdesign, #opengovernment, communications, #innovation, designful #leadership, and organisational #culture.
Presently, I'm on sabbatical (but hire me) from client work, living in the bush in Djiringanj Yuin country and running a B&B in the mountains of the Bega Valley (https://rocklily.com.au/) in a place called Brogo (NSW, Australia). We're 25km from the nearest town living on 100 acres of primarily remnant endangered forest (https://www.environment.nsw.gov.au/threatenedspeciesapp/profile.aspx?id=10110). You'll see posts from me about #bushlife, our journey to #offgrid, #conservation, #biodiversity and ethical feral species #hunting, the #outdoors, #sustainability, #righttorepair and #handyperson things.
I'm into #archery, being a husband, dad, and carer, #gaming (console, #RPG, and tabletop), and #progressive politics, particularly #auspol. I'm a fan of many sports, with a competitive background in #gymnastics (coaching), traditional #taekwondo (practitioner and instructor), and #powerlifting (elite masters competitor). I support the #Brumbies in Super Rugby, #Vikings in the NFL, and #FCStPauli in football.
