The Purge: Hunters Edition

Yep. I agree. Tick eradication could be the most serendipitous decision we ever made.

If I ran the zoo, my call would be a % decrease in the tick population and a waiting period to observe the impact that may have before we pull the plug on them entirely. Preferably a long one, since eradication doesn't seem necessary to immediate well-being for humanity. But I don't run the zoo, and since we live in a world with 2-4 year election cycles and quarterly profit reports...I'm not holding my breath for us to become patient and calculated and risk-averse in a sane way.

interesting google search


the top hits basically point out that ticks are food for other things...well, this doesn't mean they are that important...you have to show that they are not substitutable by something else or that something would be malnourished without them

again with the weird perspective ecologists can have

this is like noticing that humans put black olives on their salads and concluding that black olives are very important to human nutrition

I'm making up 12 dozen arrows with rubber blunts and heading straight to the nearest sizable population of penguins. Uppity little bass turds. A bow hunt for feral chickens in Hawaii would be a close second.

I must say though, a cgu11 hunt over decoys and a snack launcher sounds like a big time though.

just own chickens and when it’s slaughter time use your bow. Or am I alone here? LolA0EF78FB-63A5-4747-8EA1-0B1F62AEA9B8.jpeg

Now that the statute of limitations has run out I can say that my first hunting experiences were road-hunting for jackrabbits. A few years later when I applied for a javelina tag I actually read the regs book and realized I'd made a couple of whoopsie-piddles as a novice hunter. I will always be grateful for my close friend for introducing me to hunting, but wish I had been proactive enough to actually read the rules.

I can tell you I worked for an old timer that told me it tastes like pork....and ~25 years ago I worked for DEP doing fish research at a lab that did manatee necropsies in a quiet corner of a local state park....I helped on a real fresh one and the muscles greatly resembled pork.....

So they should be called sea pigs, not sea cows...
