    The Great Escape

    PG said, Our legislators are representative government. They listen to their constituency. That would be all citizens of North Dakota. We the people hire the Game and Fish to perform a service. If a Bill comes up and the legislature needs some clarification or advice they can and do ask Game...

    The Great Escape

    No one is arguing that shooting a hundred buffalo a day back in the 1880's was a good idea. Laws were passed that no one could shoot them in Yellowstone National Park and ranchers along the Musselshells River in Montana gave them sanctuary. Trades were made and people could own them. Buffalo are...

    The Great Escape

    PG, It's fun watching you try to blur straight lines. No one shoots over a hundred buffalo a day. No one spotlights deer. This is our North American Wildlife Conservation Model. Our history. NAWCM. PG, what you are talking about is something written in the 1990's. The North American "Model" of...

    The Great Escape

    Anyone can read Prairie Ghost but how many know where he is coming from? The North American Wildlife Conservation Model is America's history.

    The Great Escape

    PG, what was in the purple Kool-Aid North American Model of Wildlife Conservation that made you disciples fall so hard? This (NAMWC) North American Model of Wildlife Conservation is more often than not confused with the (NAWCM) North American Wildlife Conservation Model. It's quite a play on...

    The Great Escape

    Ericb said, No...... Those deer in the first post are probably worth $5,000 a piece. (alive) They aren't worth much dead. Kind of like a bunch of pen raised pheasants escape on opening day of pheasant season. Alive they are worth $10 bucks. Not worth much dead. I don't believe the owners would...

    The Great Escape

    Ghost said, So you would like to know??? Me too. Satellite elk bulls that get pushed out of their home range by dominant bulls will go on a walk about. Can be over 100 miles. My Farmed Elk Ranch has been visited by seven bulls in seven years. I am in E5. If a sportsmen (with a once in a life...

    The Great Escape

    You just can't help yourself. :cool: An animals first instinct is flight so the key is to get them acclimated to noises and sights. My dog runs around among them so a coyote isn't going to alarm them much. Motorcycles, tractors, shotguns, they get used to it. I've never had a farmed elk go...

    Unexpected "Icks"

    Partying all night we stopped at Taco Johns. I ordered two soft shell taco's with extra sour cream. Took the first bite and extended my hands all the way. There was a long hair still inside that taco all the way to my mouth hanging full of sour cream. I said to my partner, "hey Harley look at...

    Everyone needs to knock it off. Having a disagreement over policy is one thing......... Guywhofishes in another thread mentioned supporting properly managed grass. Let's start there. The new Farm Bill is being constructed and there is scuttlebutt about raising the cap on CRP acres. If we...

    Direct Payments to farmers/ranchers

    Grass is tougher than corn and buffalo are tougher than cows and.............why do farmers in the red river valley plant sugar beets instead of grass? Because guywithsweettooth wants it. Consumer demand is a funny thing. Tabaco is subsidized going into the ground and taxed like hell coming out.
