    160,000 Salmon escape

    http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-atlantic-salmon-20170903-story.html How the heck do fish escape? This type of thing keeps happening. Elk/Red stag cross escaped in Idaho. Deer escape all over the country. People need to get a handle on this before they screw everything up. Wrong...

    ? I didn't say me, I said we as in hunters and grazers, but as always you crap in the hand that's extended to you. Three days ago as a matter of fact. I normally don't pick up calls that say out of area. I was expecting a call and grabbed it. It was a media poll on Trump and also Heidi H...

    Apres I joined a group of 30 guys one time for a measure put to voters. Two or three guys who were active in the group took some money from HSUS. Ticked me off enough to not join them the second go around. Ask gst, we talked about it through PM's on nodakoutdoors.

    It ticks me off that when you buy a hunting license out of state you start getting calls and mail from outfitters. It's hard being polite with the parasites.

    In this case stalemate is a lot like "If it ain't broke don't fix it". I could live with that if you can. Tell you what Fritz you convince your friends to stop trying to take it and nearly every hunter will support grazing in the multiple use plan. Together we could tell groups like the...

    Sometimes I feel like that. On the other hand why does conservatism have to be anti conservation? I would think a true conservative would be ----- well conservative, as in conservation of more than money. This news from the Game and Fish moments ago. Good news, but I'll bet it will cause...

    We also have to consider the what ifs if the feds turned the land over to the states. We have historical proof of what they would do.

    When is the last time you saw a monarch?

    I think that's a Red Admiral. I am seeing a lot of Fritillaries in my yard the past few days. The Viceroy you mentioned is a good example of what they call batesian mimicry. The poison in milk weed is taken up by the larvae of Monarchs and passed on to the adult. It makes them poisonous to...

    Apes I think I could agree to leave it if there were not people supporting transferring federal land to the states. I also can not help but think the reason that some don't support the wilderness is because they can't get their hands on it then. In a perfect world I would say leave it as is...

    When I first started college and majored in wildlife my goal was to help keep game populations high for hunters. With age that changed. I know I will catch guff for this, but I believe that creation attests to the creator and would like future generations to be inspired as I am when I stand on...

    Dank you are absolutely right. We learn as we go, but sometimes a few people don't. Smoky the Bear was a real bad idea. Now that we have applied a little more forest ecology to our brain we understand that the idea promoted by Smoky was destructive in the long run. Same with the fools in...

    When is the last time you saw a monarch?

    I read an article a year ago about the population decline of Monarchs. I have a bog that I pump 1000 gallons an hour through to clean my pond. I use native plants in the bog to use up the nitrogen from the fish crap. Anyway, for many years I raised over 200 Monarchs on the swamp milkweed...

    I had voted yes, but BBQBluesman and Ghost may have swayed me the other direction. I do think I want one of these shirts that are selling in many places now. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LXDHJCT/?tag=nodakangler10-20 Edit: The shirt is a good reminder to the bunny huggers that we own this land...

    Study: Public lands bolster state’s economy

    I was out to Medora this week-end and things are green, green, green. I was checking in and they had this Extreme Fire Danger warning at the campground. I said that must be an old sign. She said no. I looked up the U S standardized fire assessment and it was moderate, not even high. I said...

    COW is delicious

    I knew the old guy (O. A. Stevens) who wrote Handbook of North Dakota Plants. Stevens Hall at NDSU is named after him and that is the book we used for all of our Botany classes. That may have changed now. I don't know how true it is, but a Botany prof said Stevens would have his wife drive...
