The name of my book is Warriors: Into the Wild by Erin Hunter. I chose this book because I like cats and warrior cat clans sounded interesting to me. I chose the first book to read so I could start at the beginning of the Warrior story. Warriors is interesting because the warrior clans live like Indian tribes would live. It is interesting that Erin Hunter is a made up name that represents the names of the five authors that write the Warriors books. Into the Wild probably takes place…
Deer hunting is a great sport I love the excitement and the rush that you get from an animal. I am always looking to improve on techniques for being quiet when the deer are approaching my stand I like to stand when a deer is coming than sitting down because it gives me more room and I can pull my bow a lot easier than sitting down. But some hunters like to sit down so they don’t scare the deer away, but I think it’s more of a challenge to do. As a deer hunter there is a right time and a wrong…
rapidly from deer and members of the deer family is chronic waste disease (CWD). This is a slow progressing disease that permanently affects the health of the deer. Some animals appear healthy for many years before they start showing symptoms of this disease. Animals with diseases, such as rabies and CWD, usually have a shortened life span. “Chronic wasting disease or CWD is a transmissible infectious degenerative neurological disease that attacks the brain and neural tissue of mule deer, white…
Is Killing the Solution Over the past Century there have been various opinions on how to prevent, or maintain overpopulation of White-Tailed Deer (WTD). Although killing are the oldest, and most effective method of deer population control, according to the North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission (NCWRC). Some animal rights groups like People for the ethical treatment of animals (PETA) feel that the killing of the WTD is not the answer to the problem. The population of these beautiful WTD is…
and extermination programs led to the gray wolf’s demise. Wolves have once roamed all over the country. They’ve been nearly hunted to extinction with only 50 wolves left in the wild when Yellowstone National Park was young. Hunters back then thought they were helping the deer and elk by killing the wolf, its main predator. They were wrong. A 30 year project to restore the wolf population was made, and the wolves made an amazing recovery. The wolves are now moving outside of Yellowstone and…
estimated 12.5 million hunters over the age of 16 hunting each year for deer. Seasons, permits, and species have specific rules governing the type of firearm, bow, atlatl, and slingshot a person may use to hunt (Missouri Deer Hunting History). Deer populations are controlled by hunting. The government puts laws and regulations to ensure that the deer population is controlled, but not hunted to extinction. For those people that think hunters just go out in the woods and shoot as many deer as they…
morning in my deer stand, my grandpa had just got there before dawn. We still had a little bit before it got daylight so he told me a story. It was a story about a deer that hunters have seen but it would always disappear in a blink in of an eye, before they could even life their gun up to shoot. A few minutes later he got to the part about the deer and how it always disappears before anyone could ever get a shot off at it. He said it was the most massive buck any of these hunters had ever saw…
Deer population The deer population in the US is decreasing while the coyote population continue to grow. I will be talking about the decrease in the deer population, the cause for this deacresion and main predator to the deer, and how killing coyotes would help hunters. In the year 2000 the deer population in the US was at 38.1 million. Over time that number has decreased and is still decreasing. In 2014 that number dropped to 32.2 million. The deer population is slowly repopulating due to a…
Frenchman, had gone miles away from camp, trailing a deer. Nokomis said that it was a lean year because the previous winter had been very cold. Tokola and the Frenchman knew if they could catch up to the deer, and then kill it, that it would feed the entire tribe for several days. “After trailing the deer for over a day, they had gotten far away and low into the swamplands. By then, the cold winds of winter had begun to blow. Thinking the deer might be joining others of its kind, to winter in…
Once in some days, unknown as past, present, nor future, a Moonflower Ivy grew to the sky. In the dark air, winged creatures with blood red skin and some creatures that were bare, with nothing but black feathers flew about. The red beings flew in one direction and the black beings in the other. The Gods above cried with grey tears that turned the blue moon to stone. During the lunar cycle on only one night, the two races battled fiercely with great force. The red, bat-like creatures followed one…
