Of the more than one million animal-related car accidents across the country each year, more than 3,000 of them happen in Missouri. As Trevor Grandin reports, a recent study by the Missouri Department of Transportation aims to stem the problem with wildlife-friendly infrastructure.

Question: I live in Michigan's lower peninsula and recently purchased a property in the upper peninsula. I love hunting up there but have had a hard time patterning deer. I've always looked for food and bedding and then found their paths in between. However, where I am in the UP, there are no significant mast crops or ag. The deer primarily feed on browse in the cedar swamps and maple stands that exist in this area. Therefore, everything around...

Taking deer herd inventory with thermal drones is becoming very common. Bill Winke has done it three times on his farm. Is the use of thermal drone to count deer crossing a line or just smart management? Winke discusses how to do it, when to do it, how to use the data, and some ethical considerations.

Beau Martonik sits back down with Dr. Karl Miller for the second half of their conversation, and this half is entirely about what a deer sees. Karl was part of the original work that got inside a whitetail's eye to determine whether deer perceive color at all, and he later worked with Sitka on a camo pattern developed around deer vision rather than human vision. He starts with the hardware. A deer's pupil opens about three times wider than ours, which alone is roughly nine times the light-gathering ability, and a reflective layer behind the retina called the tapetum bounces that light back across the rods and cones a second time to roughly double it again. The pupil is a horizontal slit rather than a circle, and it rotates to stay level even when the deer drops its head to feed, so a deer eating acorns is still watching the horizon. They see roughly 310 degrees, whereas we see 120. Then the tradeoff. Deer have no fovea centralis, they can't accommodate for distance, and their visual acuity at a stationary object comes in somewhere around 20/40 to 20/60. Karl's line is that they'd almost need corrective lenses to drive. What they do have is motion. Their eyes stay still and let the image travel across the retina engaging new cones, and they process that visual information roughly four to five times faster than a human does, which Karl suggests means your movement looks to them something like slow motion. That leads into a long back and forth on jumping the string, whether a deer is reacting to the sound at all, and whether it might be seeing the bow flex or even the arrow itself. Beau brings his axis deer footage from Hawaii into it, where the deer were on the ground before the arrow arrived at 25 yards. The back half is camo, and it's the most useful stretch of either episode. Karl lays out the two jobs camo has to do, explains why pattern detail matters far less than most hunters think and why outline and spectral match matter far more, and gets into whiteners and brighteners in fabrics and detergents that take ultraviolet light and re-radiate it into exactly the part of the spectrum a deer sees 20 times better than we do. He explains why he stopped wearing blue jeans in the woods, why a whitetail's tail is white in the first place, why old army camo is actually good camo, and why a shiny fabric can beat you even when the color is right. He also walks through how Sitka's Cover pattern was developed and what it was actually designed to solve. He closes with what he calls the take home: hunt the deer's brain first. There are only three questions in a deer's head, and everything it does traces back to one of them. Part one of this conversation is episode 506. Topics: 00:00:00 — Part two intro 00:07:16 — A deer's eye is built for two jobs, and neither one is looking at you 00:11:32 — Pupil size, and nine times your light gathering ability 00:13:31 — Their eyes rotate to stay level when their head goes down 00:14:23 — The tapetum, and 18 times the light 00:21:21 — Blue cones across the whole retina, and 310 degrees of vision 00:24:49 — 20/40 to 20/60: they'd need corrective lenses to drive 00:27:39 — Flicker fusion, and why your movement looks like slow motion to them 00:28:40 — Jumping the string: the sound, the arrow, or the bow 00:34:29 — Drawing on a quartering deer, and why they don't look up 00:37:20 — What camo has to do, and what it doesn't 00:40:39 — Whiteners, brighteners, and camo that glows 00:42:53 — How Cover got built around deer eyes instead of ours 00:50:08 — Fabric shine, old army camo, and plastic blaze orange 00:54:03 — Hunt the deer's brain first Dr. Karl Miller's published research: Google Scholar, search “Karl Miller deer UGA” Part one of this conversation is Ep. 506 Instagram:   ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@eastmeetswesthunt⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@beau.martonik⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook:   ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠East Meets West Outdoors⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Shop Hunting Gear and Apparel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube: Beau Martonik - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQJon93sYfu9HUMKpCMps3w⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partner Discounts and Affiliate Links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.eastmeetswesthunt.com/partners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Amazon Influencer Page ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/shop/beau.martonik⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

We are joined by Blake Schnare this week on the Missouri Woods and Water Podcast for a Tales of the Chase episode built around a tough turkey season that turned into a memorable win. The conversation covers turkey hunting strategy, habitat work, poaching encounters, and how persistence paid off after a rough start. Blake shares the full story, from scouting a northern Missouri farm to dealing with two poaching incidents in the same season and still finishing strong. It is equal parts wildlife management, turkey hunting pressure, and the mindset shift that came from sticking with it. Thanks for listening! Key topics Blake's background and why he likes the Missouri outdoors Why habitat work matters Turkey hunting as a growing passion The property setup and why roosting mattered First real look at the gobbler The first poaching incident How law enforcement got involved The poacher was caught with evidence hidden in a ditch What happened after the first loss A second poaching situation and a season reset Turning point in Kansas A strong finish in Missouri What the season taught him Deer hunting and future plans Check out the MWW Website for store, partner discounts, and more!!!

How old is that buck or bull, really? Jaden visits Matson's Laboratory in Manhattan, Montana, to sit down with lab manager A.J. Stephens and learn how wildlife teeth are used to determine the ages of deer, elk, bears, and other mammals. A.J. explains how cementum age analysis works, why wildlife agencies send thousands of teeth to the lab, and why the method is especially valuable for understanding the age structure of an entire population. They also dig into the limitations of aging an individual animal and why antler size, body size, trail-camera history, and tooth wear can sometimes fool even experienced hunters. The conversation includes some wild examples from the lab, including two similar-looking Montana mule deer that were 2½ and 5½ years old, a giant Montana bull that was only six, a bull that lived to 21 and died of old age, and an Alaska brown bear that was still raising a yearling at 40. They also discuss hunter selection bias, whether passing a young animal really guarantees another opportunity, and why age is only one part of what makes a hunt meaningful. If you want Matson's Lab to age one of your animals, remove one or preferably both front lower incisors, place them in a labeled paper envelope, and include your contact information. Paper is the key word here. Nobody at the lab wants to open a sealed plastic bag containing a rotten jaw.

What is the #1 factor controlling whitetail deer movement? According to Don Higgins, it isn't the rut. It isn't the moon. It's TEMPERATURE. In Episode 340 of the Chasing Giants Podcast, Don shares a recent real-world example from his trail cameras. After averaging roughly 100–400 photos per day across eight cameras, a temperature change caused activity to explode to more than 1,500 photos per day — and the movement wasn't limited to nighttime. Don and Terry break down why weather can trump nearly everything else when it comes to mature buck movement and how hunters can use cold fronts throughout the entire deer season. Also in Episode 340: • Why 2026 is producing an incredible hard and soft mast crop • Acorns, apples, persimmons, chestnuts and other fall food sources • How abundant food can change deer patterns • October morning hunting — when does it actually make sense? • A mature buck encounter that completely changed how Don hunts • Why giving up the wind can ruin even a great stand location • What "woodsmanship" really means • Why trapping can make someone a better deer hunter • Teaching the next generation traditional outdoor skills • Using hairy vetch for soil health and whitetail food plots • Hunting over bait: the difference between legal and ethical • How to prepare for the moment of truth on a giant buck • Listener questions and important prayer requests With hunting seasons beginning across the country, this episode is packed with information you can put to use immediately.

Top federal prosecutors from the Four Corner states are descending upon the Phoenix metro this week as part of an annual conference meant to tackle crime and justice in Indian Country. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. A hotel room full of victim advocates, attorneys, and tribal law enforcement personnel congregate in Glendale. Arizona's top prosecutor, U.S. Attorney Timothy Courchaine, reminds them why they are all meeting. “It may sound like priorities are elsewhere in this administration, but all of the U.S. attorneys up here and every member of leadership in the Department of Justice will tell you: Indian Country is always a priority.” From Phoenix and Albuquerque to Denver and Salt Lake City, Courchaine stresses they are all on the same team. “If you work with a rural tribe, whether it's in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico or Arizona, it might feel like you are at the ends of the earth.” Three cubs belonging to Osso in the Anan Wildlife Observatory at Tongass National Forest. (Courtesy U.S. Forest Service / Facebook) A major logging project planned for Alaska's Tongass National Forest is raising concerns about potential impacts to subsistence resources. The U.S. Forest Service acknowledges the project could affect deer harvests relied on by communities in Southeast Alaska, where the Tongass has long supported Alaska Native cultural and subsistence practices. Conservationists are now pushing back against plans to log thousands of acres of old-growth forest, as Mark Moran reports. Conservationists are pushing back on a massive old growth logging plan by the Forest Service that would carve new roads through thousands of acres of Alaska’s Tongass National Forest. The agency says it will revitalize the logging industry and improve habitat and ecosystems for native species. The Revilla Integrated Research Project aims to log 4,000 acres of old growth trees in the Tongass near Ketchikan, harvest 83 million board feet of timber, and build more than 40 miles of roadway. Southeast Alaska Conservation Council’s Nathan Newcomber says the development plan threatens the habitat of a number of animals. He says even the Forest Service has acknowledged the risk. “Deer, bears, wolves, birds like the Queen Charlie Goshawk. They also state that they acknowledge the significant likelihood of impact to subsistence, including on deer harvest.” There were at least 120 objections to the plan during a public comment period, but the Forest Service says it intends to begin the work and address legal challenges later. Southeast Alaska has been transitioning away from clear cutting old tree stands in favor of what’s known as young growth logging, which Newcomber and other environmental advocates support, even though the practice now comprises only about one percent of the region’s economy. “To go back to this bygone era from the 1970s where you just clear-cut landscapes, it makes absolutely no sense. Nobody supports it apart from extractive industry and politicians. But local communities in Southeast Alaska, they wanna protect what we have. It’s our cultural way of life. It’s the way that people live up here.” Southeast Alaska is also highly dependent on tourism to support local economies. Driven largely by cruise ship traffic, the region sees as many as two million visitors a year, according to Alaska’s Southeast Conference. Confederate Brig. Gen. William L.. Cabell, left, and Union Col. William F. Cloud led troops during the skirmish. And on this day in 1863, fighting broke out near Camp Pike in the Choctaw Nation, in what is now Oklahoma. The skirmish came during the Civil War, when Indian Territory became a battleground involving Union and Confederate forces. Camp Pike had been used by Confederate troops following the Battle of Honey Springs, one of the war's largest battles in Indian Territory. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

When Legends Turn Deadly is a nearly five-hour Terrifying & True true crime and folklore marathon featuring eight stories about monsters, cultural memory, Spiritualism, murder, extremist violence, and fatal belief. The Hat Man, the Deer Woman, Djinn, the Melonheads, the Fox sisters, the Greenbrier Ghost, the murder of Jeffrey Hall, and the exorcism of Anneliese Michel form one escalating journey from modern nightmare to documented human tragedy. The journey begins between dreaming and waking, where people across cultures report a faceless silhouette in a wide-brimmed hat. Science points to sleep paralysis and suggestion; folklore and online testimony have turned the figure into a modern legend. The Deer Woman then carries a living Indigenous warning about predation and consequence. From there, Djinn traditions reveal what is lost when ancient spiritual beings are reduced to evil genies, while the Melonheads show how regional rumor can transform illness, disability, and exclusion into a monster. The Fox sisters then turn unexplained knocks into modern Spiritualism. The second half crosses into true crime. In 1897 West Virginia, Mary Jane Heaster said the ghost of Zona Heaster Shue revealed her murder. In Riverside, California, a ten-year-old killed his neo-Nazi father, Jeffrey Hall, inside a home saturated with weapons, violence, and hate. In 1976 Bavaria, prolonged exorcisms and abandoned medical care ended with Anneliese Michel dead from malnutrition and dehydration. Together, these cases separate documented history from paranormal claim without draining the fear from either. They ask how stories can protect people, distort a culture, stigmatize outsiders, manipulate believers, expose a crime - or make ordinary warning signs disappear behind absolute certainty. Inside this episode: The Hat Man, sleep paralysis, and a modern nightmare shaped by shared testimony The Deer Woman as warning, consequence, and living Indigenous tradition The Djinn, their place in Middle Eastern and Islamic tradition, and their distortion into evil-genie stereotypes The Melonheads Curse and the way regional folklore transforms abandoned or abused children into monsters The Fox sisters, the Hydesville rappings, and the rise of Spiritualism The Greenbrier Ghost, Zona Heaster Shue, and a West Virginia murder trial The murder of Jeffrey Hall and the effects of racist extremist ideology inside a family home The exorcism and death of Anneliese Michel in Klingenberg, West GermanyDo monsters begin in the dark, or in the explanations we refuse to question?

Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) is proud to offer adaptive equipment at several state parks to help more people and their families enjoy the outdoors. In this episode of the podcast, Digital Media Specialist Forrest Czarnecki returns as a guest host to bring listeners into the field to learn more about how CPW strives to offer recreational and sporting opportunities for children and adults of all ability levels.For the Blevins family, visiting Ridgway State Park wasn't just any old summer vacation. For the family of five from South Carolina, visiting the park was going to be a once-in-a-lifetime trip facilitated by Make-A-Wish chapters in Colorado and South Carolina. As soon as CPW learned of this visit, state park staff developed a plan to make it an unforgettable experience for the Blevins family.Fred, Rebecca, Miller and Bo Blevins were incredibly gracious in allowing us to tag along and document the experience for Bo, their 12-year-old son living with a CASK gene mutation.Led by Ridgway State Park Park Naturalist Shelby Martinez, Bo and his family enjoyed an action-packed two days at the park. After starting with a big hike, with Bo riding a Trackchair, the first day ended with an afternoon of fishing at one of the park's two smaller stocked ponds below the reservoir. We even helped Bo's sister, Miller, land her first few rainbow trout.Day 2 took the family on a morning paddleboard adventure around the marina and swim beach. Loaded onto an oversized wheel-chair compatible paddleboard, Fred expertly paddled the entire family and Shelby around Mears Bay. All the while, Bo lit up and danced as he felt the breeze blow through his hair and the gentle rocking of the paddleboard.The family's trip ended with a tour of the reservoir on a state park ranger's boat. While the family enjoyed the last bit of their vacation at the park, we caught up with Park Manager John Freeborn, who knows firsthand about the healing power of nature following his lengthy recovery from a major car accident. We also chat more with Martinez and learn about her personal connection to working with families with special needs.Through it all, we learn how Colorado is at the forefront of providing adaptive equipment to help individuals and families in need of assistance, both at our state parks and beyond. This is an episode you won't want to miss.For more information on how CPW provides options to state park visitors with disabilities, check out the CPW website.

Host Trey Reid talks with AGFC Conservation Support Division Chief Cory Gray and Wildlife Health Biologist A.J. Riggs about chronic wasting disease (CWD) in Arkansas. They discuss the two new counties for the 2026-2027 season (Grant and Sevier) and how the detections will effects hunters this season. They summarize a five-year research project (2020–2025) in Newton county with the University of Georgia, SCWDS, and Colorado State University, concluding CWD can drive deer population declines, with about 34% of monitored deer deaths attributed to CWD alone and a projected annual population loss of 14% in the study area. New Deer Zone 2 regulations aim to protect more females and stabilize herds. They explain Arkansas' voluntary, free whitetail testing program (mandatory for elk), freezer and taxidermy sample networks, carcass transport rules, baiting/feeding restrictions, and efforts to contain spread while encouraging hunters to keep hunting and get deer tested.

Beau Martonik sits down with Dr. Karl Miller of the University of Georgia, where he spent 40 years leading deer research and mentoring close to 100 graduate students. Karl grew up hunting the Pennsylvania big woods before he went south for his PhD, and much of what hunters take for granted about rubs and scrapes came out of his lab. The core of this conversation is signpost communication. Karl walks through why bucks make rubs in the first place, and what one of his students found when he ran a chemical analysis on forehead gland secretions: 67 different compounds, and not one of them in higher concentration in dominant bucks than in subordinate ones. No dominance signal at all. What varies is the mix, deer to deer, which means every buck is leaving something closer to a name than a rank. He also explains why the loser of a sparring match will walk up and lick the winner's forehead. Then he gets into scrapes, and the finding he clearly loves most. Scraping activity peaks about two weeks before peak breeding in almost every study ever run on it. Karl's hypothesis is that this isn't coincidence or anticipation. It's that buck urine deposited in scrapes may be acting as a priming hormone on the does, pulling their cycles into synchrony, and the two-week lag matches the length of a doe's follicular wave. He and a graduate student demonstrated the same mechanism in Eld's deer using a control group and a group exposed to male urine, and the treated group entered estrus together with enhanced hormone profiles. Then he flips it and explains flehmen, the vomeronasal organ, and how a buck taking doe urine into his mouth routes it past the smelling part of his brain entirely and straight to the part that runs his reproductive physiology. Both sides priming each other. Also covered: 3,600 rubs per square mile on an unhunted Georgia herd, roughly six per acre; the interdigital gland and the 11 compounds that actually do track with maturity; why a tarsal gland's smell comes from bacteria and not from the gland; the staph and listeria living on it; the castrated buck that ran an entire rut in two weeks on a testosterone dose they overshot; young bucks making 15 percent as many scrapes as mature bucks; and a stretch where he and Beau land in different places on whether there's any point in doctoring a scrape. This is part one of two. Part two is deer vision and camo, and it's out Tuesday, September 1st.

Vitalize Seed, Grandpa Ray Outdoors, Northwoods Whitetail, Real World Wildlife Products In this episode of Maximize Your Hunt, host Jon Teater and guest experts discuss the intricacies of managing hunting properties, focusing on food plots, plant diversity, and the importance of questioning conventional wisdom in hunting strategies. They emphasize the need for ecological food plots that attract deer throughout the season and the significance of understanding soil biology and plant interactions. This conversation delves into the intricacies of managing food plots for deer attraction, focusing on the use of perennial crops, liquid fertilizers, and the importance of soil health. The speakers share insights on specific plant traits that enhance deer attraction throughout the season, emphasizing the role of nutrient-rich soils and plant diversity in creating sustainable food sources for wildlife. The discussion also touches on innovative practices like compost teas and the synergistic relationships between different plant species. Takeaways Questioning everything is essential for growth. Food plots should function as ecosystems, not just attractive plants. Diversity in planting allows deer to select preferred food. Annual clovers provide high nutrition in early spring. Soil health is crucial for successful food plots. Seasonal attraction is key for effective hunting strategies. Understanding local deer behavior is vital for management. Planting blends can enhance food plot effectiveness. Monitoring deer activity helps assess food plot success. Long-lasting attraction requires strategic plant selection. Perennial crops like clover and chicory are effective for deer attraction. Liquid fertilizers can enhance plant growth even in drought conditions. Soil health is crucial for producing nutrient-rich plants. Diversity in plant species can lead to better wildlife management. Understanding plant maturity can extend attraction periods for deer. Compost teas can improve soil health and plant sugar content. Plants can complement each other in nutrient uptake and growth. Timing and method of fertilizer application are key to successful food plots. Deer are more attracted to nutrient-dense plants. Effective food plots require a holistic approach to soil and plant management.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested three people during a traffic stop within the Gila River Indian Community in Arizona earlier this month. As KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports, the Valley tribe's leader says the encounter stoked fear. Gov. Stephen Roe Lewis claims the tribe made a deal allowing federal agents to conduct activities on their sovereign lands – so long as they first notify the Gila River Police Department. But tribal officers will not assist. “Now with this recent incursion, that agreement clearly broke down and needed to be urgently and directly and clearly addressed.” In a video message on social media, Lewis revealed he has contacted the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. “And to their credit, they understood immediately that this was a genuine problem, and arranged that same day to put our new chief of police in touch with the local regional ICE leadership.” None of the apprehended men are reportedly tribal members.

(Courtesy U.S. Forest Service / Facebook) A proposed logging project in Alaska’s Tongass National Forest is facing opposition over concerns it could affect wildlife and subsistence hunting in Southeast Alaska. The U.S. Forest Service plans to log thousands of acres of old-growth forest near Ketchikan, Alaska, as Mark Moran reports. Conservationists are pushing back on a massive old growth logging plan by USFS that would carve new roads through thousands of acres of Alaska’s Tongass National Forest. The agency says it will revitalize the logging industry and improve habitat and ecosystems for native species. The Revilla Integrated Research Project aims to log 4,000 acres of old growth trees in the Tongass near Ketchikan, harvest 83 million board feet of timber, and build more than 40 miles of roadway. Southeast Alaska Conservation Council’s Nathan Newcomber says the development plan threatens the habitat of a number of animals. He says even the Forest Service has acknowledged the risk. “Deer, bears, wolves, birds like the Queen Charlie Goshawk. They also state that they acknowledge the significant likelihood of impact to subsistence, including on deer harvest.” There were at least 120 objections to the plan during a public comment period, but the Forest Service says it intends to begin the work and address legal challenges later. Southeast Alaska has been transitioning away from clear cutting old tree stands in favor of what is known as young growth logging, which Newcomber and other environmental advocates support, even though the practice now comprises only about 1% of the region’s economy. “To go back to this bygone era from the 1970s where you just clear-cut landscapes, it makes absolutely no sense. Nobody supports it apart from extractive industry and politicians. But local communities in Southeast Alaska, they wanna protect what we have. It’s our cultural way of life. It’s the way that people live up here.” Southeast Alaska is also highly dependent on tourism to support local economies. Driven largely by cruise ship traffic, the region sees as many as two million visitors a year, according to Alaska’s Southeast Conference. Fort Howard along the Fox River in what would become known as Green Bay, Wisc. is where the treaty was signed on Aug. 25, 1828. And on this day in 1828, Ho-Chunk, Potawatomi, Ojibwe, and Ottawa leaders signed a treaty with the United States at Green Bay. The Native leaders had declined a U.S. request to cede additional land. Instead, the agreement established a temporary boundary amid conflicts over white settlers occupying Native lands for mining. The United States also agreed to provide $20,000 in goods as compensation for damages caused by the occupation. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Can hunters actually influence the genetics of a free-ranging whitetail herd? Biologists often say no—but Bill Winke sees it differently. In this episode of Deer Dirt, Bill shares what he's experienced firsthand and why he believes genetics can be influenced in wild deer. It's a controversial topic, and we're diving straight into the debate.

Almost 10 million dollars of the International Visitor Conservation and Tourism Levy will be spent on reducing the wild goat and deer population across New Zealand's conservation landscapes. There are approximately 1.8 million wild deer and several hundred thousand wild goats across the country, costing farms hundreds of millions of dollars in damage and repair bills every year and invading native bush. Federated Farmers pest management spokesperson, Richard Dawkins spoke to John Campbell.

Tonight, Jim and Ed interview two of Kentucky's premier Big Buck Bow Hunters, Steve McMichael from Western Kentucky and Jake Bailey who hunts in the Eastern Kentucky Mountains.

What would you do if somebody sent you a photo — and the exact location — of a 200-inch whitetail? On Episode 339 of the Chasing Giants Podcast, Don Higgins and Terry Peer dive back into one of the most debated subjects in hunting: the difference between what is legal and what is ethical. After last week's discussion generated more than 100 comments, Don explains why hunting ethics have to go beyond simply asking whether something is legal. That conversation leads directly back into thermal drones — including the story of a hunter who spent $10,000 on a thermal drone, used it for only a few months, and then sold it because he believed the technology crossed an ethical line. Then Don addresses controversy surrounding a recent Whitetail Master Academy clip about receiving tips on giant bucks. Don explains exactly what happens when somebody sends him information about a big deer, why most tips never make it beyond his computer, and why he has walked away from opportunities to hunt tremendous bucks when doing so would step on another hunter's toes. Don also shares an incredible story about locating a giant Nebraska buck on public land. After tracing the trail-camera photo back to the young hunter who originally captured it, Don called him directly and asked for his blessing before hunting the deer. The hunter said no — and Don walked away. Plus, Don and Terry answer listener questions covering: Why Don is cautious about river-bottom hunting properties Whether NutriCrave high-oil corn is difficult for deer to digest Whether shooting a cull buck can push a target buck off your property How to recognize hunting content that may not tell the entire story How Don chooses stand locations based on wind Why sometimes the best hunting decision is simply staying home The episode closes with Sunday Night Prayer Time with Ty Miller and a challenge to stop merely reacting as Christians and begin intentionally viewing our lives, neighbors, challenges and priorities through God.

177 The Creek Kings Case – With Mark Williams What happens when modern poaching meets social media fame? Ohio Wildlife Officer Mark Williams shares the story of the Creek Kings case, an investigation that exposed years of illegal deer hunting hidden behind a successful YouTube channel. What began with a park visitor finding hunting equipment in a metro park quickly grew into a massive digital investigation involving trail cameras, cell phone data, deleted evidence, fake hunting locations, sponsorship money, and some very ambitious trophy hunters. Mark takes us through the case from the first clue to the final sentencing and explains how technology helped both the offenders and the officers who caught them.

We spent the first half of this one talking about fishing tournaments and running through a heat wave that had no business being that miserable. Neither of those things has much to do with a treestand, but by the time we got to deer talk, the thread was obvious. Grinding through a tournament you didn't prep for, or finishing a run when it's 95 degrees and your body is begging you to quit, that's the same discipline that gets you through a scouting season nobody's watching. That's where we spent most of the episode: scouting, and why it isn't really about finding deer at all. It's about eliminating the ground where they're not. Most guys burn their summer walking easy-access spots and open fields, then wonder why their season stalls out in October. We walked through how we're doing elimination scouting this year — covering big chunks of ground fast, crossing off what doesn't hold deer, and narrowing down to the two or three core areas that actually matter once September hits. We also got into what fall looks like for us. More family hunts than we've had in years, which changes how we plan everything else. Public ground keeps getting more crowded, and the deer know it just as well as we do, so the spots that worked three seasons ago aren't playing the same game anymore. We talked through why we're leaning harder into early season sits before pressure builds, what the rut actually does to all that scouting work once it kicks in, and why rubs and scrapes still tell you more about a buck's real pattern than almost anything else, if you know how to read them. This one's part planning session, part gut check. If you're staring down a summer of scouting and don't know where to start, or you're trying to figure out how pressure has changed your ground, this episode's for you.

Deer management in Ohio Deer populations are becoming an increasingly visible issue in urban communities across Ohio. They cause tens of thousands of vehicle crashes each year that kill both people and deer. There's also concern of property damage and the impact on local ecosystems. This has prompted some cities to take a closer look at deer management. Medina is among the communities tackling this issue. The city recently developed a more comprehensive initiative involving federal support following two years of a city-run bowhunting program. Last year, 114 deer were harvested through that program, compared with 18 the year before. Currently, the population is around 1,000, or about one deer for every 26 residents. Wednesday on the "Sound of Ideas," hosted by Stephanie Haney, we'll learn more about this issue with local and statewide experts. Guests: - Geoff Westerfield, Assistant Wildlife Management Supervisor, Ohio Division of Wildlife - Gabriel Karns, Professor, School of Environment and Natural Resources, The Ohio State University - John Coyne, President, Medina City Council Armwrestling gains popularity in Northeast Ohio Armwrestling has been around for centuries, but for many people, the sport's most memorable pop culture moment came in the 1987 Sylvester Stallone movie, "Over the Top." The film follows a single father who enters a Las Vegas armwrestling competition, hoping to secure a future for his son. Today, armwrestling is finding new life in Ohio, with clubs popping up across the state. To end the hour, we'll hear from two Northeast Ohio professionals. We'll talk about how they got into the sport, what it takes to compete and why armwrestling is attracting a new generation of athletes. Guests: - Megann Galehouse, U.S. National Champion, Cleveland Armwrestling - Kevin Palko, Founder and Head Coach, Cleveland Armwrestling

Beau Martonik sits down with Lee Ellis of Seek One, who has been at this since 2015 and says roughly 90 percent of the deer on his wall are deer he had more than a year of history with before he killed them. Lee is upfront that it's very rare for him to kill a deer he hasn't been following, and this conversation is mostly about what that actually costs. They get into the buck he called Derp, four years of waking up every day thinking about that deer, and the night after he finally killed him when it hit him hard enough that he couldn't sleep. Lee explains why he thinks a fresh camera picture of a buck working a scrape means you're already behind him, and how finding one center point in a deer's rut range beat chasing that deer across seven or eight camera locations. He also talks about a 188 inch public land buck he knew for about four hours and why he says a 140 would have gotten the exact same reaction out of him. Also covered: taking February through May completely off from deer hunting for the first time in years, patterning Pokémon card restocks with the same brain that patterns deer, what changes when your team grows and other families depend on the season going well, deer that show back up on almost the exact same date year after year, the summer reconnaissance lap he sees in the third week of August, twenty years of door knocking for 95 percent no's, and why he doesn't think you call a truly big deer in. This is part one of two. Part two is one long story, the buck Lee killed in a blizzard at the end of last season, and it lands September 15th, right after Seek One's film on that deer.

There's a version of hunting that looks like dedication but is actually just noise. You know the guy. Out every weekend, every morning, every evening, running cameras, bumping deer, wondering why the big ones have gone nocturnal by the second week of October. I've been that guy. Most of us have. This episode is about the discipline nobody talks about, the hardest skill in deer hunting: knowing when to stay home. It sounds simple. It's not. Every hunter has that internal pull, that itch to be in the stand. You've got vacation days saved, gear dialed, permission slips signed. Sitting on the couch while daylight is burning feels like failure. But here's what I've learned the hard way: pressure kills opportunities faster than anything else. Faster than weather, faster than rut timing, faster than a bad wind. Pressure is the invisible ceiling on your season. Deer don't forget. That's the part that took me the longest to internalize. Every time you walk into a property, you leave a signature. Scent, sound, visual disturbance. The more often you're in there, the more those deer, especially mature bucks, shift their patterns to avoid you. You don't even know it's happening. You just notice that the good deer stop showing up in daylight. You blame the moon. You blame the weather. You never blame yourself. Strategic restraint is the answer, but restraint isn't passive. It's calculated. It means studying conditions, wind, thermals, historical deer movement data, and asking yourself an honest question: is going in today likely to do more harm than good? More often than not, the answer in October is yes. I've had sits where I knew walking in that the conditions were marginal. I went anyway because I couldn't stomach staying home. I bumped deer on the way in. I contaminated a transition zone I'd spent months protecting. And I burned a sit that could've been a sit in the first week of November when it actually mattered. The hunters who consistently kill mature deer share one underrated trait: they're comfortable with the discomfort of waiting. They understand that the season is a long game, and that every unnecessary entry is a withdrawal from an account that doesn't refill quickly. If you want to be better next season, start logging the days you decided not to go. What conditions made you hold back? What happened on that property the following week? That data will teach you more about your hunting ground than a hundred sits ever will. Patience isn't a personality trait. It's a skill you build by making hard decisions over and over until the right call feels obvious.
