    Jasper wildfire/climate change

    The timber industry can be very hypocritical--they promote the idea that forests need management but their idea of management stops with a hard NO at including prescribed fire.

    Massive Nevada Solar Farm on BLM

    Not accurate. They are grazing sheep under them in several places I know of, and someone I know is the process of installing for a cattle operation. He sees great potential for cattle to go well with them. There's a whole new group of folks getting into solar/grazing...

    Adjusting a Williams WGRS peep sight

    If you can adjust windage why not just get a different height front sight? Is it not dovetail in front?

    Can’t sell taxidermy on Facebook Marketplace?

    Honestly have no idea if this is the reason, but federal and international game laws and their lack of ability to tell they were met could well make them unwilling to allow taxidermy sales.

    Massive Nevada Solar Farm on BLM

    Seems to me you both could be right, but what's needed is an up to date assessment of support. In either case, I see the important point being that oil and gas have loads of subsidy/federal assistance help--and IMO we could argue they need it less in many cases.

    Somebody mentioned Vegas earlier. Any city with that much light at night might benefit from renewable considerations mandated as part of any new building permit approval.

    Utah Game Warden Criticism Article

    Can't speak to Utah, but here this type of mission creep started with efforts to integrate wardens into local law enforcement. Some of that is fine IMO, they often work in rural areas where assisting each other can be very helpful. We had an example of the backfiring that can occur with this...

    Massive Nevada Solar Farm on BLM

    Exactly. Comment consideration is not a vote...you need to provide specific comments on impact concerns to have the most impact. It would be good to see some responses from conservation groups to help with individual comments, but there too it's best to try and avoid directly copying...

    Random news stories thread. (No politics or i will find where you live and light a bag of dog crap on fire on your porch ring the doorbell and run)

    You mean why doesn't the juvenile "gotcha", name calling, seeking out posts and targeting individual behavior make me stop posting? Stubborn I guess. That and I think such posters don't appreciate they indicate a lot more about themselves than who they are attacking. Sticks and stones. And...

    You need to experience a group of them buzzing you at at VERY low altitude, and coming from behind you--at such a speed you don't hear them until the are just going past you.

    I can't speak to Germany specifically but the eurasion lynx is not smaller than the NA version--some of them are bigger in fact. But--Depending on which species you are talking about they have some pretty small deer there.

    I have pointed out in other places that hunters and decision made not by biologists by by politicians or politically appointed folks can be worse than what the antis try and pull. Sounds like they are heading in that direction unless things change. State management comes with some conditions...

    People like this are often living in a deluded reality due to extreme views promoted by one extreme side or the other--doesn't mean it's political, anything like this should be abhored.

    Project 2025 and Conservation

    I think Paul Errington, Lloyd Keith and others whose work has informed professional biologists for years would disagree on that, but it is a bit complex. The main point was deer are down because we had two historically bad winters in a row. Secondarily in places (not everywhere) we have lost a...

    And their panel quality is suspect, according to my friend in the business.

    I guess I need to keep up. Didn't know climate change denial was a religion now!

    Project 2025 and Conservation

    Can't speak to CO and WA but I know in this part of the country it wasn't activist groups or judges as much as totally removing professional biologists from a key decision--that then (not surprisingly) turned bad--that has been the most recent cause of our lack of state wolf management...

    Jasper wildfire/climate change

    Climate change impacts are variable. It's clear its getting warmer and getting warmer faster than ever before. But is it getting warmer and wetter or warmer and drier? That varies across the continent. Not sure everywhere has a clear trend yet either. In MN, data--and our state...

    Well this is old news, but climate change has made the pine beetle problem WORSE. Like I said earlier, the pathways climate change affects the earth are numerous--and many are totally clueless about them. https://www.science.org/content/article/climate-change-sends-beetles-overdrive...
