Red Deer

from afar. This is just the start of a long sit in the woods to try and harvest a deer. Sitting in a tree stand for hours at a time with nothing but myself and the nature around me just waiting for a single moment to shoot my shot at a deer. As time goes by I begin to wonder if today is going to be my lucky day or not. Then, just as I began to rest my eyes and listen to everything around me I hear the footsteps of a deer. For as long as I can remember, I loved the outdoors. You could always…

Day 43 Burning the zombies might seem effective as it became harder to track us either by zombies or humans. Emma and Gigi went out to gather supplies in the forest. Bear just killed a wild cow that seemed to have just gotten lost in the area. I would sometimes feel guilty of having to slaughter animals especially since they are also living creatures but I always knew I would not have any other choice. Since I do not know how to butcher animals, I wondered if we should just grill them again but…

Fox-hunting - A Barbaric Tradition That Should Remain Firmly In The Past Fox-hunting - “The sport of hunting a fox across country with a pack of hounds by a group of people on foot and horseback, a traditional sport of the English landed gentry” (Oxford Dictionary) Two polarised viewpoints co-exist in relation to fox-hunting, people either hate it, as they believe it is a horrendous form of animal cruelty, or they are supportive of it, believing that foxes aren’t like other domesticated…

As an avid outdoorsman I’ve always had a great amount of respect for game wardens across the country and look to them as heros. Texas game wardens’ missions are “to manage and conserve the natural and cultural resources of Texas and to provide hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation opportunities for the use and enjoyment of future generations.” The result from their work is “ [being] a recognized national leader in implementing effective natural resource conservation and outdoor recreational…

The title of the article "Why Killing Coyotes Doesn't Make Livestock Safe" is an effective hook because it draws in readers from both sides of the debate it discusses. Conservationists will be concerned with wildlife populations, and owners of livestock will be interested in the safety of their own animals. Megan M. Draheim's article follows up on its title with a startling introduction: the US government's Wildlife Services killed more than 70,000 coyotes in the year of 2016. Despite the fact…

Larry Heitmeier Period 1 English Research Paper Trap Shooting In trap shooting their are five shooters and one trap house. The shooters use shotguns to shoot clay disc’s as the targets. The field has five stations, and one trap house. At each station the shooters have to aim at different spots to hit the targets.(“Trap Shooting Basics”) Trap is a very old sport that has been modified through time. Hunters use to do trap with pigeons to prove their skills.(“Trapshooting”) Now people shoot trap…

white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), have been steadily increasing. This increase in population has caused many people to consider various ways to keep the deer populations in control (Brown et al. 2000). Despite record harvest rates and many unrestricted hunting laws, white-tailed deer are very abundant in many regions of the United States (Rawinski 2008). For example, the range of the white-tailed deer has expanded to include offshore islands, such as Block Island, RI, where 7 deer…

I think another thing to take into consideration is that those who harvest wild animals are not necessarily cruel to the animals. I grew up in an area where the local culture hunted for deer every fall; this is pretty common in most areas I've lived in. In my experience, the people who hunt animals like deer strive to kill the animal in a manner that is as instant and painless as possible. They also have a great respect for the animal and the resources it provides. While there are hunters who…

White Tail Deer Wildlife plays a very important role in the history of our country, dating back hundreds of centuries to the first civilizations of Native Americans. White-Tail Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) played a significant part in how the Indians survived; deer supplied the Native Americans with meat (venison), clothing, tools, a source of trade between Europeans, and ceremonial items (Howe, 2011). This being said, if anything were to happen to the population of deer to decline the Indians…

Hunting is the practice of killing or trapping animals. There are all kinds of hunting around the whole world. The hunting I prefer is duck hunting, deer hunting, and turkey hunting. All of these include one main thing and that is patience. There is so much more hunting around the world than just those three. There is boar, elk, coyote and even squirrel hunting. A lot of the times people go hunting so they can mount it or eat the meat of that animal for me I like to eat it because when you try…
