Also, a turkey fight and display will attract the attention of predators, I’m sure many a turkey lek gets ambushed by coyotes causing birds to flee in utter panic. Deer season is challenging enough to navigate and but everyone seems to wear orange an hunters in trees are easy to spot. Turkey hunters…not so much.
All eight hunters on the commission think it’s a good idea to shoot cranes in Kentucky. Why allow hunters to shoot right into the middle of them? As you’ll remember, Kentucky’s Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources unanimously passed its sandhill crane hunting proposal. The proposal now goes to the U.S. Quick: what’s this?
The hunters who do not eat their crows) “are providing a smorgasbord for other wildlife!” Foxes, coons, coyotes, possums and hawks all get a free meal that lasts for days on some of the larger shoots.”. It was written by Bob Aronsohn, who, in December 2013, killed his 150,000th crow. The higher the score the better you feel.”.
This almost certainly can be argued to be true just on the basis of logic, because feral Cats are proficient hunters and are entirely out of ecological place. Dogs are similarly dispersed across size ranges, with Foxes, Coyotes, and Wolves taking prey across different parts of the size range. Plus, Coyotes eat Cats.
I won’t pick a fight with hunters, as long as they eat what they shoot and don’t use lead ammunition.

This is baloney.
The cottonwoods in the river bottoms echo the branching antlers of the elk that bugle among them each falls (abundant, but never enough so for Montana’s voracious hunters.) The tussocks are badgers, the stones are grouse until they fails to fly away.

Car collisions, feral cats, and run-ins with hunters also cause problems, even for this speed-racer. Of course, only thirty minutes later I saw my second roadrunner, this time standing on a lawn adjacent to a busy street!
Lead shot injured and killed condors young and old, lead in the carrion they ate, lead in the bullets that hunters shot at them. Coyotes took carrion from young Condors and then killed the weakest ones.

Horned Screamer Michael McDonald is a lot like Wile E Coyote and would like to see a Rufous-vented Ground-cuckoo ! He lives in Forest Hills with Daisy, their son, Desmond Shearwater, and their two indoor cats, Hunter and B.B. My most-desired Brazilian bird? Easily, it’s the Rufous-vented Ground-cuckoo ( Neomorphus geoffroyi ).
