In this episode of Maximize Your Hunt, host Jon Teater discusses (Whitetail Landscapes) the importance of land management and habitat improvement for hunting properties. Joined by Austin Unruh from Trees for Grazers, they explore various topics including the significance of plant diversity, integrating trees into pastures, protecting young trees from wildlife, and the benefits of specific tree species like honey locust for deer. The conversation emphasizes practical strategies for enhancing hunting landscapes and ensuring ecological balance. This conversation delves into the ecological and nutritional significance of mulberries, particularly in relation to wildlife management and sustainable land practices. The speakers discuss the benefits of mulberries for deer and other wildlife, their role in ecosystem design, and best practices for planting and managing these trees. They emphasize the long-term advantages of integrating mulberries into land management strategies, highlighting their cost-effectiveness and nutritional value. Takeaways Diversity of plants enhances the landscape's ecological services. Leaf litter is a nutrient resource for insects and birds. Tartarian honeysuckle can negatively impact native plants. Integrating trees into pastures provides shade and food for livestock. Shade is crucial for the health of deer and cattle. Protecting young trees from wildlife is essential for survival. Tree tubes can be a costly solution for protecting trees. Honey locust pods provide critical energy for deer in winter. Trees typically produce biennially, affecting food availability for wildlife. Choosing the right cultivars can maximize benefits for wildlife. Mulberries serve as an important food source for wildlife. They can be managed for both fruit and foliage. Mulberries have a high protein content compared to other fruits. The tree can be maintained as a shrub or allowed to grow tall. Mulberries are known for their vigorous growth and resilience. They can bear fruit in as little as one to two years. Integrating mulberries into land management can enhance wildlife habitats. Long-term strategies can lead to sustainable land use. Mulberries provide energy and nutrients during critical seasons. Cost-effective management of mulberries can yield benefits for decades.   Social Links https://whitetaillandscapes.com/ https://www.facebook.com/whitetaillandscapes/ https://www.instagram.com/whitetail_landscapes/?hl=en https://treesforgraziers.com/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCmkofs5dbH-_AxrNf9B2GA/videos Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Some dates in history collect oddities the way a junk drawer collects batteries and old keys — you open it up and wonder how all of this ended up in the same place. FEBRUARY 2ND is one of those. We've got soldiers looking up at an impossible sky, archaeologists crawling into a forgotten tomb full of mummies, a castaway whose stubbornness saved his life, a secret society that terrorized an island for decades, and a beloved rodent whose job performance would get anyone else fired.

Groundhog Day is on Monday, and Pennsylvania always shows up for Punxsutawney Phil, the state's beloved groundhog and "official meteorologist." Ahead of the celebrations in Punxsutawney, host Megan Harris and producer (and Punxsy Phil devotee!)

The Environmental Health Division of the Ministry of Health, Wellness and Nutrition has partnered with residents of Anse La Raye to conduct an intensive source reduction and community cleanup campaign aimed at eliminating mosquito and rodent breeding sites. This initiative was undertaken in response to growing concerns over an increase in mosquito and vector breeding sites identified throughout the community and forms part of ongoing efforts to reduce vector-borne disease risks and promote a healthier environment.  

An investigation is set to be carried out into a reported rodent infestation in West Clare. It follows concerns raised by constituents over a persistent presence of vermin at Place De Plouzane in Kilrush. Although the green space has been identified as an area for development under the Kilrush Town Centre First Plan, it has been consistently blighted by illegal dumping and encampments in recent times. Kilrush Independent Councillor Ian Lynch says this cannot continue.

In this episode, I'm joined by YA romance author, Sujin Witherspoon to talk about writing emotionally honest love stories, creating chemistry that actually works, and why teenage feelings are never “too much.” We also discuss flawed characters, quiet vulnerability, hot rodent men, and the scenes authors fight editors over. Equal parts thoughtful and unhinged, this conversation is for readers who annotate books, fall for fictional people a little too hard, and still think about their favorite YA romance years later.

Chef Bruno Serato of the nonprofit Caterina's Club makes pasta for children from families who are financially struggling. It feeds 5,000 hungry kids every night. Now, Chef Serato's nonprofit needs financial help so it can continue to feed the community. The failed high-speed rail from LA to San Francisco cost taxpayers $130 billion. That's a total of $240 billion that's been wasted or is unaccounted for in California, including missing funds from the unemployment department and the homeless. Toronto Blue Jay fans in town for the World Series probably don't want to go home; LA is looking so beautiful right now. There's a rat problem in DTLA! A hand grenade was found at a Burbank recycling center! It led to an evacuation, but it turns out it was a dud. A woman was attacked in broad daylight while walking along Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood.

So, guess what? Los Angeles has snagged the title of America's rattiest city—yeah, you heard that right! In a shocking twist that would make even the most seasoned reality TV producers raise an eyebrow, LA has dethroned Chicago and New York. Eric G is diving into the latest survey results from Orkin, and trust me, it's a wild ride through the seedy underbelly of urban rodent life. We'll see which cities are crawling with these little furballs and which ones are managing to keep their streets relatively rat-free. Spoiler alert: if you're in a California city, you might want to check your pantry! So grab your headphones, and let's get our squeak on!If you ever wondered what it's like to live in a city where rodents are basically the unofficial mascots, then you're in for a treat! The latest midweek update from Around the House with Eric G. dives headfirst into the murky waters of America's 'rattiest cities.' Spoiler alert: Los Angeles has claimed the top spot, dethroning the usual suspects like Chicago and New York. I mean, come on LA, we knew your obsession with fame would extend to rodents! Eric breaks down the absurdity of urban cleanliness and how it correlates with rodent populations, sprinkling in wit and sarcasm that keeps us chuckling while we contemplate our own pest situations. And as he rattles off the top 20 cities infested with these pesky critters, it's hard not to feel a mix of horror and amusement at the sheer dominance of California cities on that list. It's like a twisted game of musical chairs, where the last one standing is just a rat with a crown. But don't worry, Eric's got tips to keep your home rodent-free, such as sealing up those ‘gaps' and avoiding clutter like it's a bad habit. Honestly, who knew pest control could sound so entertaining?Takeaways: Los Angeles has officially claimed the title of America's rattiest city, shocking no one. Chicago and New York still battle it out for rodent supremacy, but LA is on top now. Rodents are not just a nuisance; they can cause serious structural and health issues, so watch out! Surprisingly, cleanliness in urban areas plays a massive role in rodent populations—who knew? Keep your food sealed and your homes tidy, or you might find yourself sharing space with some unwanted furry friends. Some cities are improving their rat situation, while others are just rising stars in the rat race—no pun intended.

There are lots of options for enjoying fall colors across Appalachia. And, America's largest rodent has caused some even larger problems -- but a new national movement that's close to home finds there are reasons to help them out. The post Celebrating Fall In Appalachia And Protecting America's Biggest Rodent, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

If you're a moth trying to stay uneaten, there are competing strategies. Some moths rely on camouflage, trying to blend in. Other moths take the opposite approach: They're bold and bright, with colors that say “don't eat me, I'm poison.” Biologist Iliana Medina joins Host Flora Lichtman to describe a study that placed some 15,000 origami moths in forests around the world to investigate which strategy might work best. Then, mammologist Anderson Feijó and evolutionary biologist Rafaela Missagia join Flora to dive into another evolutionary conundrum: why so many rodents have thumbnails. Guests: Dr. Iliana Medina Guzman is a Senior Lecturer in the School of BioSciences at the University of Melbourne in Australia.Dr. Anderson Feijó is a mammal curator at the Field Museum in Chicago. Dr. Rafaela Missagia is an assistant professor at the University of São Paulo in Brazil.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

TIRLESS BEAVERS SPREADING THEIR VISION TO THE NORTH SLOPE:   5/8 Beaverland: How One Weird RodEnt Made America by  Leila Philip  (Author) https://www.science.org/content/article/beavers-are-poised-invade-and-radically-remake-arctic https://www.amazon.com/Beaverland-Weird-Rodent-Made-America/dp/153875519X From award-winning writer Leila Philip, BEAVERLAND is a masterful work of narrative science writing, a book that highlights, though history and contemporary storytelling, how this weird rodent plays an oversized role in American history and its future. She follows fur trappers who lead her through waist high water, fur traders and fur auctioneers, as well as wildlife managers, PETA activists, Native American environmental vigilantes, scientists, engineers, and the colorful group of activists known as beaver believers.   Beginning with the early trans-Atlantic trade in North America, Leila Philip traces the beaver's profound influence on our nation's early economy and feverish western expansion, its first corporations and multi-millionaires. In her pursuit of this weird and wonderful animal, she introduces us to people whose lives are devoted to the beaver, including a Harvard scientist from the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana, who uses drones to create 3-dimensional images of beaver dams; and an environmental restoration consultant in the Chesapeake whose nickname is the “beaver whisperer”. 1898
