Research studies in the Southeast have found that a doe can be bred by multiple bucks and produce fawns with different fathers.[…]
Let’s face it, like other game (yes, I call feral hogs game), wild pigs are not all feedlot tender and young. Yes, some are, but lots of them are old and tough — like the boar that Falgoust killed.[…]

Yes, everybody eats pogies; They just don’t know it.
The sea is a funny place. On land, planting-eating species (herbivores) vastly outnumber meat-eaters (carnivores). That’s because it takes 10 pounds of herbivore flesh to produce 1 pound of carnivore.[…]
When my kids were young, I was determined they would be as eaten up with hunting and fishing as I was. They were dragged along on trips as often as possible, and the lessons stuck — at least with my son.[…]
