This week, from horse to firearm auctions, we navigate keeping the peace with our spouses afterwards. Plus share updates on hunting mishaps, how Anti-Hunters has wildlife conservation still winning, and record-breaking catches with unexpected outcomes. Join radio hosts Rebecca Wanner aka ‘BEC' and Jeff ‘Tigger' Erhardt (Tigger & BEC) with the latest in Outdoors & Western Lifestyle News! From Firearms to Horse Sales: Navigating Auctions (and Marriage) with Strategy When Auctions Are a Way of Life — and Marriage Is a Partnership Recently, while driving to a horse sale that we were working at, my husband Tigger turned and asked me, “So... are you getting a bidder number today?” I smiled and responded with a firm, “Yes, and glad we've now had that discussion.” Translation? I'm buying something, and we're not arguing about it. Truth is, when you've been around livestock, auctions, and rural life as long as we have, these conversations become part of your auction day ritual. What Tigger also knows is that I don't buy just to buy. I invest — whether it's a colt, a saddle, or yes, even a rifle. If something is going to eat feed, take up stall space, or use up a gun safe room, it better bring value, joy, or a decent return one day. And let me tell you, this particular sale day delivered a little more excitement than expected... The Time I Bid Against My Husband Without Him Knowing So, there we were at the horse sale. Tigger was busy representing another ranch, completely unaware that his lovely wife(BEC) was quietly (but confidently) bidding against him from the other side of the ring. The auctioneer knew. The ringmen knew. Heck, the crowd knew — and they were loving it. Then came the big moment: Auctioneer: “SOLD!” Me, grinning: “I love you, Tigger!” That's when the place erupted in laughter. And to his credit, Tigger took it like a champ. Was he thrilled I'd just dropped cash on a horse we hadn't even discussed? Maybe not. But did he respect my judgment? Absolutely. And that's what makes our auction adventures work: mutual respect, financial boundaries, and open communication. Meet our newest addition, a 2025 AQHA registered Bay Roan filly purchased from the Froelich Legacy Quarter Horse Sale that we know call "Denali". Her name comes from not just her pedigree but also as this was the year I visited Denali National Park in Alaska! Planning for Firearm Auctions — and Keeping the Spouse Happy While livestock sales are a regular part of our lives, firearm auctions are another exciting (and tempting) avenue we both enjoy. But before we register, load up the trailer, or open the gun safe, we always have a talk: What do our finances look like right now? Do we have room in the safe (or barn / pasture)? Is this an impulse buy or an investment piece? What are the long-term costs — time, maintenance, upkeep? Could this have resale value or serve a future purpose? These conversations aren't about permission — they're about teamwork and transparency. When you're in a relationship where big purchases are common — whether horses, hay, or handguns — keeping the lines of communication open keeps the peace (and the budget balanced). Upcoming Firearm Auctions You Don't Want to Miss For all our fellow auction-goers, collectors, and Second Amendment supporters out there — mark your calendars! Wolff Auctioneers Firearm Auctions (with Live & Online Bidding): October 25, 2025 — Featuring 150+ rifles and pistols November 1, 2025 — Another 150+ rifle showcase Visit WolffAuctioneers.com for details, catalogs, and to register for online live bidding. Whether you're looking for collectible firearms, hunting gear, or just something to pass down to the grandkids - these auctions are the real deal. Final Thoughts: Respect, Strategy, and Shared Adventures Auction days are more than just sales — they're events. They're part of the lifestyle we love. But they can also become points of tension if you're not careful. If there's one thing I've learned, it's this: "Bidding is fun. Buying is thrilling. But mutual respect is what keeps the relationship strong." Whether I'm bidding on a gelding or Tigger's eyeing a vintage Winchester, we know what matters most: being a team, backing each other up, and being just a little competitive — even if I do yell “I love you” after I outbid him. Tragic Lightning Strike Kills Two Missing Elk Hunters in Colorado Wilderness Two young elk hunters who went missing during a trip in southern Colorado were tragically killed by a lightning strike, according to the county coroner. Andrew Porter and Ian Stasko, both 25, were found dead after a six-day search near the Rio de Los Pinos Trailhead in the Rio Grande National Forest. Porter's fiancé, Bridget Murphy, confirmed on Facebook that the men were hit indirectly—likely by a ground strike nearby—and died instantly. No burn marks were found on their bodies, but the lightning's massive voltage was enough to be fatal from a short distance. The two hunters had returned to the area for a quick evening hunt before storms moved in, leaving their gear locked in the car. Their last known location pinged on Sept. 11, and they were officially reported missing the next day. The search involved hundreds of volunteers and multiple agencies and came to a heartbreaking end on Thursday when their bodies were located about two miles from the trailhead. Murphy honored Porter as an experienced outdoorsman who simply "was in the wrong spot at the wrong time." Autopsies are pending, but officials confirm nature's raw power played a devastating role in this tragedy. Lightning strikes to humans are rare, but powerful. A typical lightning flash is about 300 million volts, according to the National Weather Service; in comparison, most household currents are 120 volts.

A significant chunk of those applications came from anti-hunting activists trying to game the system and block lawful, conservation-based bear harvests. One bear advocate posted on Facebook Monday, September 22 that the activist group, Angels in Distress, had spent $185,000 on lottery entries — about 37,000 applications, nearly a quarter of the total — with no intention of using the tags. Their goal? Keep bear tags out of the hands of hunters. Also, earlier in September the Sierra Club Florida shared a tutorial video showing those against hunting bears how to purchase a hunting license online. This video specifically showed how to check a box to request a deferral from Florida's hunter education requirements. By using the deferral program, Florida's Fish & Wildlife Conservation allows applicants without hunter's education to hunt with someone who already has their hunter ed or is exempt from these requirements. Despite this coordinated campaign, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) says these efforts haven't affected past hunts and likely won't derail this one either. If anti-hunters do manage to draw tags but don't use them, FWC will track unused permits and adjust future quotas to ensure bears are properly managed. Hunters can also take some pride in knowing that all this money — over $817,000 so far from $5 lottery entries, plus future tag fees — goes directly to wildlife conservation efforts in the state. So even sabotaged entries are indirectly helping fund habitat and wildlife management. Winners will be notified soon and have until October 6 to claim their tags. If they don't, those tags roll down to the next eligible applicant — likely a legitimate hunter. FWC originally planned to issue 187 tags, but trimmed that number slightly due to other bear mortality factors in the north. The hunt runs December 6 to 28 and is Florida's first bear hunt in a decade. After the bear hunting season closes, the officials will evaluate the hunter's success to the number of unused permits to adjust future bear hunting seasons.

Cliff Chamberlan, who's been fishing the Great Lakes since the '70s, was fly fishing and drifting a plastic bead on August 31, 2025 when he caught a 6-pound, 1-ounce pink salmon on the Salmon River — well above the long-standing state record of 4 pounds, 15 ounces set in 1985. Chamberlan followed all the rules: on September 4th it was determined by officials he caught the fish legally, had it confirmed by a fisheries biologist, and was even told congratulations — the record was his. Then, hours later, the state called him back with crushing news: New York had quietly retired pink salmon from its record books in 2024, just months earlier. The reason? Not enough recent entries — even though that had nothing to do with Chamberlan's impressive catch. Chamberlain was quoted in the New York Update, “I went from the highest high to the lowest low in about five hours.” And who could blame him? He caught a rare fish, heavier than any recorded in New York history, and still walked away empty-handed — all because the species was removed from the eligible list after decades of inaction by the state. The pink salmon, also called a “humpy,” is not stocked by New York, making catches like this incredibly rare. The species originally entered the region through Canada back in the 1950s and slowly spread to Lake Ontario. Even today, they show up occasionally — and when they do, they often go unnoticed or misidentified. So while Cliff Chamberlan may not get his name etched into the official state record books, among fellow anglers, his catch stands as a true accomplishment — proof of skill, patience, and a bit of old-school luck.

Shark Science Career Advice: In this episode of Beyond Jaws, we sit down with Kenzie Horton, a passionate early-career shark biologist who's turning childhood snorkel trips into a mission to protect sharks and educate the public. From chasing fish with a disposable underwater camera to studying white shark migration off the Carolinas, Kenzie's story is one of drive, persistence, and unshakable curiosity. She discusses the ups and downs of becoming a marine biologist, how she found her way into shark research, and what she's learned through internships, grad school, and outreach. White shark research: Kenzie walks us through her master's thesis on white shark movements, her work at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, and the importance of finding mentors who believe in your goals. She talks candidly about the challenges of breaking into the field, why she turned to TikTok to inspire others, and how she's navigating career decisions post-graduation, including the possibility of a PhD. If you're dreaming of a career in shark science or just love a good marine biology story, this is a must-listen.

On this episode of CheloniaCast we are joined by both Brent Fannin and Chase Pirtle, the producers behind the documentary Gopher Games: a short documentary focusing on the potential grim fate of the Gopher Tortoises in Florida. Chase is the Director of the 100-acre Ashton Preserve and has diverse experience in wildlife conservation and study across various states in the U.S. Brent is an award-winning documentary filmmaker, drone pilot, educator, and founder of Golden Hawk Drones. The conversation dives into the process of producing the Gopher Games film, and details some of the major takeaways for both Brent and Chase. A prominent theme of the conversation is the fact that the majority of the commissioners of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission are developers, and why this is not a fair situation for the Gopher Tortoise. The value of the Gopher Tortoise both intrinsically, and instrumentally, is discussed at length as well as the imminent threats they are facing. To learn more about how you can help the Gopher Tortoise, and the entirety of Florida's immensely biodiverse ecosystem by extension, visit the Gopher Games website here: https://gophergamesfilm.com/ Do you think it is not fair that the majority of the leadership of Florida's state wildlife agency have immense incentive to develop the state further?

A recent Fair Work decision noted that a primary carer doesn't have to be the sole carer in order to receive primary carer parental leave. Here, a BigLaw special counsel unpacks the decision and what it means for employers and lawyers moving forward. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Maddocks special counsel Meredith Kennedy about her work in the BigLaw firm's employment, safety, and people practice, the case of Metro Tasmania Pty Ltd v Australian Rail, Tram and Bus Industry Union (and what happened at first instance and then in front of the full bench of the Fair Work Commission (FWC), how “primary carer” was defined in the proceedings and relevant enterprise agreement, and how and why the FWC full bench reached its conclusions. Kennedy also delves into why this matter is so significant, the takeaways for employers nationwide, the need to ensure that workplace policies and frameworks account for all circumstances, overcoming collective biases, riding the wave of sociocultural shifts, best practice for lawyers in this space, and what else such lawyers need to be looking out for.

Lionfish are an invasive species in Florida. They arrived in our waters as early as the 1980s and efforts to control the population are ongoing. Lionfish eat just about every creature they see in the sea, and can devastate ecosystems. Destin is holding a Lionfish Festival this weekend (17-18) to encourage people to catch the weird-looking fish and make a meal out of it. We speak with Tony Hart, Lionfish Outreach Coordinator for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

This week Jim and I got a chance to sit down and just talk about some of the current events across the hunting universe. Of course we talked on the Florida Black Bear hunt, I better see a bunch of you at the meeting on May 21st and 22nd by the way. The crazy fishing captain and I don't think I need to explain myself any further there. Early rifle season proposal for Georgia and Blue laws. We briefly covered some crossbow regulation changes that I think Jim might have been a victim of the ole April fools on but hey, it happens to the best of us. I'm guessing this based on the fact I can't find anything on the FWC website or anywhere else for that matter if you see something tag me in it.
