    2A/2B/2C ST JOHNS COW ELK HELP

    this will not really be a 'hunt' in the conventional sense. these hunts exists for just one purpose-getting elk out of the corn and maize fields along the little colorado river and a few pumpwater tilled acreages. i would get names and numbers of property owners from the wildlife manager early on and be the first to contact them. show all respect because you will not get on the properties otherwise. generally the property owners will have the elk schedule down pat and will have you meet them to get through the gates. an early and wet monsoon season might lead to the elk having already left. anybody else with more current advice? lee

    Gear Legends: Buck Knives Model 119

    i have only carried one knife since 1972. a buck 118-the blade's kinda hollowed out some, still in use as of 2018 on a fat little buck. big game, furbearers, small game and even a fish or 2. every fall it is the first thing in my pack for hunting season-even before the matches. sliced my 12 yo thumb open with it when i bought it at the montgomery ward in los arcos mall on a school field trip for marksmanship class. needs a new sheath-the flap tore off in the '90's. this was fun, thanks, lee

  20. mber 2003 Lemming Suicide Myth Disney Film Faked Bogus Behavior By Riley Woodford Lemmings do not commit mass suicide. It's a myth, but it's remarkable how many people believe it. Ask a few. "It's a complete urban legend," said state wildlife biologist Thomas McDonough. "I think it blew out of proportion based on a Disney documentary in the '50s, and that brought it to the mainstream." Lemmings are a kind of short tailed vole, a mouse-like rodent that favors tundra and open grasslands. Three kinds are found in Alaska, including the collared lemming, the only rodent that turns white in winter. In 1958 Walt Disney produced "White Wilderness," part of the studio's "True Life Adventure" series. "White Wilderness" featured a segment on lemmings, detailing their strange compulsion to commit mass suicide. According to a 1983 investigation by Canadian Broadcasting Corporation producer Brian Vallee, the lemming scenes were faked. The lemmings supposedly committing mass suicide by leaping into the ocean were actually thrown off a cliff by the Disney filmmakers.
  21. saw my doctor-family practice-this morning. his take is up to a million infections in AZ, a quicker turnaround than august 1(my estimate using CDC protocols) and only a tiny percentage confirmed through testing. also death rates of high severity risk patients going way, way down. lee
  22. i had been thinking the next big body count would be the US coasts-a big move of the Cascadia or collapse of the Cumbre Vieja volcano. not from eating bat brain soup in Wuhan. RIP Anthony Bourdain. lee
  23. agreed. how about confirmed cases of infection up to 08/01/2020? not scientific-just a game.
