    Restoring a riparian zone

    Without knowing the full background...that sounds frustrating. I like live stakes. OP mentioned willow and cottonwood. All ya do it take a bunch of 2 foot branch cuttings from nearby plants in the winter and put them half way in the soil where you want a plant. Mark them with some flagging so...

    First cougar cubs verified in Michigan in more than a century

    Rumors of sightings in Osceola county, we have property there. They don't really need much, plenty of them on doorbell cams throughout urban areas in OR.

    Peregrine Fund's New Video on Non-Lead Projectiles

    Switched over to copper after I read some lead poisoning papers several years ago. I’ve been happy!

    Japanese Yew and Elk

    Even worse, it’s highly toxic to children and pets. Doesn’t make a lot of sense to have around IMO https://amp.idahostatesman.com/outdoors/article234442102.html

    Losses at the Forest Service

    WY HB286

    When have the majority of hunters not blamed predators, even when studies and best available data suggest otherwise? Its easy, convenient, and does a good job of ruining hunter credibility with other stakeholder groups.

    Doubt this will impact agencies...

    What I find is it’s a hunting forum based on reason, standards, and advocacy vs a hunting forum based on folklore, anti environmentalism, and entitlement. Just a different perspective from a successful private sector hunter

    Is this what we’ve become?

    He nailed it really. Pick off the working class with funny tweets and distractions, continue building the framework of the last 40 years that concentrates wealth at the very top. Most billionaires ever in the incoming administration and I read Trump is now among the top 25 wealthiest in the...

    Could Washington Wildlife Commission conflicts be the new normal for other states in the future?

    If hunters want to be the primary stakeholders in wildlife management a good place to start would be having a well organized approach with baseline environmental standards, comprehensive conservation interests, and putting reasonable people forward who believe in the scientific method.

    119th house rules - transferring federal land

    Oregon residents want the same. There was so much public uproar it didn’t go through. Things change and constituents views and wants change, even if that doesn’t seem possible. Financial burden is completely different for states.

    119th house rules - transferring federal land

    Here’s an example of a state forest that was almost sold, and it would have been a heartbreaker. Ended up with a university and then turned into a state research forest with public access…a bumpy ride. This is in a solid blue state. Stuff happens, even if you think it won’t…wacky local politics...

    119th house rules - transferring federal land

    NYT article reporting on a house measure Friday (119th congress rules) that makes it easier to transfer federal lands to the state. The article mentions it’s happened in the past. Does anyone have history on how often this measure has been implemented in the past...

    On midwestern ground - A Great Depression buck - intro to hunting blinds - A reminder hunting blind - Into the mist - remnant trout - uncertain future

    It seems like there's a lot working against family land holdings over the long run. The world changes and sometimes descendants aren't really interested in staying in the area, or economic pressures make the properties easy to sell if there is any doubt about retaining them. I think in our...

    On midwestern ground - A Great Depression buck - intro to hunting blinds - A reminder hunting blind - Into the mist - remnant trout - uncertain future

    I had a hard time thinking of a title and for some reason a Cormac McCarthy style chapter heading made sense. I’ve grown up the in west and have hunted vast acres of public land my entire life. Most hunts involve miles and miles of legwork and occasionally sitting on strategic crossovers...
