That doesn't sounds like a PG game
there are some recorded cases of Jaguars in the US, not in Florida though
YOOO
Arizona right
not in contemporary times but Spanish, English, and French explorers reported them in lower appalachia
I havenāt been there so I havenāt seen any so I canāt report
and even further north than that theres sightings from as late asn the 1670s in what is now Pennsylvania
they still occasionally wander into the southern US, but haven't recorded any breeding populations in recent history
Iāll go there and have a look at some point
They were originally as far north as New York believe it or not I was looking into how to get reintroduction processed but found like no info at all
an a party of naturalists in the northern colorado area spotted one around whats now Estes Park in 1843
bio
How sure were they it wasnāt a young cougar
The concept of the Lynx being reintroduced to the uk by 2030 is so exciting to me , I know itās very unlikely Iāll ever see one in the wild but knowing theyāre about and helping rebalance is wonderful
the had done multiple expeditions independently or with some of each other into central and south america and they described it as a south american "leopard" that was shockingly far north
RIGHT
Anyone else smell smoke before a storm?
I wish the elk reintroduction into my state was more successful, would love to hunt those
Hmmmm
theyd be a huge help for repairing the eastern woods ecosystem
I think they tried in Minnesota but it didnt work
2030 is hopeful , could be later as itās an incredibly long process but ! Fingers crossed for the next few years
I mean weve got evidence of a northern latitude species that lived will into Canada in the prior glacial maximum so
wouldnt be shocked
yeah, i'm in the foothills of the appalachean.. there are some still around from past reintroduction efforts, but they haven't really taken off in population
especially since escaped captive animals from the exotic animal trade are known to live in Canada and New England
yeah, that's why the everglade is full of giant snakes now
Need to push for the elk reintroduction more I did that as well the argument is that they don't want them having cohabitation issues with humans I've given multiple reasons why I think an area nearby is perfect for them
fun fact: their expansion has been restricted cause the local wildlife figured out how to give them the smoke
Colorado hoarding all the elk
coyotes, raccoons, and bobcats especially
Average coyote W
Coyotes on top š£ā¼ļø
I was in the smoky mountains once bc we were watching a massive house, it was insanity and the creek near us had a bunch of elk and bear tracks
so lemme tell you how clever these little bastards are
i like "cohabitation issues with humans"
they figured out, that just because the snake is much bigger than a watersnake doesnt mean that it does not have the issues of a smaller snake
which is to say
i almost got tackled by a whitetail last year while walking through town, i thought it was pretty cool to see them on my walk
they learned their shed cycles and understand theyre basically blind when in blue
Stendarr have mercy on us.
The feral drooling whitetail
and attack them with a bite to the back of the head during that time of year
Nice
in wisconsin, we'd often have to stop driving just to let a female turkey and all her babies cross the road.. didn't mind that either
Shedding snakes take all the fun out of snakes
No challenge in the catch
raccoons and bobcats have also both figured out how to pressure them off their nests and turn the daycare into a buffet
And no prettiness
Ohh yum
Also average raccoon W
310,000 š„
Their greed sickens me
oh and alligators and native snake species predate on the hatchlings and juveniles in several lifestages
possums and skunks both also raid nests
birds of prey and crows raid nests and take hatchlings
Ive heard of skunks raiding nests never opossum
I remember one time seeing a skunk raid a Muscovy nest and get drowned.
opossums are like the walking incarnation of gluttony among mesocarnivores in the americas
Nahhhh bro got slimed out by a duck
if they can figure out a way to either bite it into pieces small enough to swallow or shove the whole thing down their gullet
theyll eat it
@digital tartan i get why youāre afraid now
Those park Muscovies dont mess around
YEAAHHH
thats a recovery from less than 1000 animals left in 1910
thatās the stuff
Greed
Birds of prey or crows
Both . #awesome
California condor ā¤ļøāš©¹
I eat them for breakfast
Kinda ugly but goated
btw Johnny Cash almost drove them extinct
im immune cuz ive eaten so many of them
Disease speedrun
Oh yeah..
did he kill them all
long before trashed out lead pellet gun pellets were a problem the wildfire that killed like 2/3rds of the remaining adults was started cause of him f-ing around in a national forest
he actually started it intentionally he just wasnt arrested for it despite the balatantly obvious arson
Money always lets people get away with it
so i just checked the pop estimates
so 308k to 310k was the 2024 estimate right
and 2025
was a very mild winter
after a very good summer and successful calving season
so we're now at
one second
I thought you were still on the condors I was so confused
339,370 adult elk in Colorado
it grew by 10% in a year
Can i eat one
Elk or the condors
One is legal the other one you'd be crucified by the state
dude the deer š
everything is up this year hold on
Thank you thank you
Soooo i can take at least one bite?
bro tryna eat all the game animals
I mean theyāre all edible
Dont blame him they can taste pretty good
Should've licked the fire salamanders instead
So anyone know who to contact to try and get elk reintroduced to my state
Me
true
idk, either the Colorado or Montana government/fish and wildlife
We have a growing elk herd near the central part of the state however it should be expanded
No no no no this is the reintroduction of an extinct species via closest living relative
Greed from Colorado
Yk i cant talk we have 3 elk subspecies here
Greek from colorado? No from greece
We have only 1400 adults
Going from tens of thousands to 1400 sucks actually
Actually from tens of thousands to 0 to 1400 is pretty buns
Very
So yeah depends on how you look at it your cup may be half full but that's just it it'll always be half full
I at least wanna fill my glass
true; i aint know what yalls total population is tho
the data im finding is hella old from like 16 years ago or more
saying only 13000 across all subspecies
My mom and sister are going to korea and i am going to germany
10,000km challenge vs 400km challenge
lmao
you going for art/architecture or nature?
Idk if i have ever been this angry at my family before
Nature
W
Right around the rhine
Near the border with france
But still
Itās not south korea
And that makes me angry
Theyāve done this same stuff with tokyo btw
They went to tokyo
And i went to the zoo
why didnt they idk
bring your ass with em and go to that one city with all the deer
or one of Japan's national parks where they got all them cool birds
or idk nature walking in Hokkaido
or the Tokyo Zoo
That one was understandable to a degree
My sister was starting college
But thereās nothing like this now
Like at least let me go to another continent
think of it this way
theres less sauces in germany on their food
heaven for you realistically
thats still nice
I want to see snakes not bratwurst
Does anyone know if and where there is a thread regarding the haggis? It seemed to be bugged a while back so I left the game for a bit.
cheers pal
No problem
as a note I can confirm its fixed
I have 4
But what mostly pisses me off is that iāve been asking to go on a safari forever now
Since itās considered like a life changing thing to do
But nahhhhh weāll go to a city and not see any wildlife
Oh and you canāt come
Pretty sure there was a imaginary middle finger involved
There's a deer/bison/boar safari park here
which city
Like african safari š
Bison safari also changes your life
Shh
it would have been more logical for them to go rhineland for the cities and you south korea for wildlife
very odd indeed
Fr i couldāve seen stellers sea eagle and loads of other cool birds
germany has beautiful architecture whereas Seoul is just modernist concrete jungle
should have done some convincing
Iām gonna eat something rq gotta put some frustration into the chewing
I only found out now
Like at least tell your family youāre planning
Mine did until like 4 years ago
sometimes i travel europe alone but thats it
Sister never comes but when she does only complains
Bc she doesnāt like travelling just laying on a beach
What was broken for it to be fixed?
my younger brother complains 24/7 whenever we travel
execute
hate mfs like that
something with its spawn trigger just wasnt working for lots of folks
Just to say āno we didnāt even do anything thereā
so old accts were basically locked out of it
WE DIDNT INVITE YOU BC RUIN IT ALL
Typical people
Do I have to restart the map or something?
in the words of Tyk
put her into the soup
no, just play on Torr nan Sithean
literally the only spawn trigger is completing mission 2 and then play time on Torr
cheers buddy, appreciate it
They think that laying on the beach in 50 degrees is better than travelling somewhere
I get bored of the beach within like 3 days
I would get bored in 1 day, maybe a couple hours
I go snorkeling
I just want an all inclusive luxury hotel trip
i just do swimming for workout purposes coz otherwise i would have no desire to swim much
This is what the beach is for, easy acces to the sea
Discord messin it up but that is a big european sea bass
Wow clear water
i see them a lot when swimming
What's yall's dream trip?
It was beautiful
Africa all day every day
Australia second place
hmm
Probably amazon 3rd place
I think id go peru or argentina or chile for south america
I forgot Germany the best trip of all time ā¤ļøāš©¹
im not a fan of the others due to safety
dont intend on beinf featured in a liveleak video anytime soon
I just wanna go on safari and see birds
Thatās all
But i wonāt in the foreseeable future
i feel like safaris are kind of overrated
ive never been to one but i feel like the idea is better than reality
Probably, but i donāt want to see those animals from my own car
I just wanna visit africa
Both me and my dad have been 14km away
Tip of southern spain
But never went
morocco looks great to visit
go to alaska/canada hunt something bring it home eat it
subsaharan africa is a bit iffy but for wildlife i guess its worth it
Madagascar is awesome but risky
Twin
Same for me
great minds think alike
squint your eyes and wiggle a brat back to back
it'll look like a snake
Innovative
you could try a bockwurst for bigger snakes too
Going to Korea will flip your sleep schedule if youāre in europe
my sleep schedule would probably normalise depending on how far ahead they are
2am here is 10am in korea and i fall asleep at 2am
cooked
Africa doesnāt have this problem š
What happend
Muscovy drowned a skunk
Uh huh
And who warned us all of a duck uprising
I did
Mallard attack
Have you seen a plane before
Oh no
That's a lovely UFO Seamus
I witnessed it
Could've done something
But I chose to let nature do its thing
You would've gotten sprayed
poor skunk
truth
Ngl germany is much much prettier then korea
But i just wanna visit another continent
š
Sounds like engine problems right?
How natural selection hasnāt got Seamus is beyond me
Visit uh middle east
Thing with africa is most people visit reserves, in which you canāt be outside a vehicle anywhere that isnāt fenced
Fair
So iād have to go pretty rural
what kind of reptiles?
To actually herp
Any
oh
Snakes lizards crocs turtles
Thatās never been enforced for me
Youāre a proper researcher with experience tho š
I know a lot about reptiles but how the hell will i tell a park ranger that i know not to grab venomous stuff
Iām a sucker for chameleons and i would love to see a venomous snake tho
So those are high up on my list
But only venomous snakes iām comfortable interacting with are vipers
Stuff like taipans and browns are just pure energy in a snake body
Wouldnāt go anywhere near those
Something like Greece is great for snakes in europe
Sand boas, african chameleons, nose horned viper, several whipsnakes and ratsnakes
Even a blind snake
My toes have been trod upon
wild
Idk if you watch herping videos but i love watching south african herping
Purely bc all the stuff feels so exotic to me
āHey I know Iām like a child but like Iām smart so I totally wonāt grab the black mamba over thereā
You see the issue š
anyone play on pc / steam and want to play
i just checked that no ones answering
I saw but people in here just wanna talk so your chances are even slimmer in here
if no one answers in there they're less likely to be in here
anyone play on pc / steam and want to play
Lama is losing it
no
Resending the message and responding to himself
respond to myself??
the definition of psychosis
wait no
thats wrong
Oh no š
definition of insanity
repeating things and expecting different results
might go to find a game and turn it into gen chat
What's today's sponsor?
Brondo, its got what plants crave
okay first very strange occurance on my grind so far
it seems that a male has jumped from one zone to another
and not a solo male
herd male to a different herd
you know what this is an opportunity to experiment with my setup
What are you grinding?
those coastal solos bounce wherever they damn please yeah
nah wasnt a solo
wat
jumped from a herd zone to another herd
dude i know right
i know it was from the herd because i kept a 5 stacked there
and then once i finished hming the rest of the map it respawned with the same females
annihilate all coastal fallow deer
interesting, i should probably check that since im missing some from my zones near there too
and it kept respawning big with the same group
whats tent spook range
its also aroudn the region where my level 2 piebald i kept aroudn for hm is at
that one is a solo for sure
that one just appeared out of nowhere
but that herd on the lake on the left suddenly had 2 5's on it one rotation and no big male was to be found on the coastal zone
ive done a few rotations and tried to figure out what happened and it has 100% disappeared from that coastal herd
if you shoot one out of a group, it may take a couple rotations before he respawns there
im aware
ive had several rounds of respawns and he hasnt reappeared at that coastal zone
I do not care about these dumb damn cappercallies
Hello watermlem
Hello twin
anyone know where harlequin ducks zones be?
Check the right side of the map along the river
There are plenty of harlequin ducks there
no worries good luck
thats the first time i've heard someone thinking that lmao
someone told me thisš«©
also does it matter what decoy i get?
like drake or hen
do yk?
i don't think so? i'm honestly unsure i just throw some in the water
sudden gif spotted
i havent duck hunted in ages
when Bult multiplayer update btw
jokes aside tho folks are tying to give tips and advice in here rn so please try to not interrupt conversations with gifs in the future
i honestly dunno if theyre even gonna add mp or even co-op since they denied it in a Q&A some months back
dang
we really fooled ourselves zach
gifted it to me for no damn reason atp
Doesnāt matter, I usually just get drakes
eh its fine lmao
I got both
Iād question the advice of whoever said that to you lol sounds like they asked chatgpt
was just 9 bucks
hopefully it actually becomes more functional soon
as is it makes me very annoyed
falling through sheets of ice while trying to approach a downed duck is not fun
i'm also terrible at duck hunting either way
do diamond harlequin ducks only spawn as males?
or both
lmao I got a diamond 4 kills in
diamond ducks of any species can only be on males
I got one 4 kills in there lwk easy diamonds
@wanton zealot identify?
waittt
I feel like I've watched u on yt before
Yeah let's go with that
nah you can hyrax talk dude, I only ever said anything about not ripping the door open on a random convo with gifs too much
also do yk if theres a certain perk that tells me what kind of fur type it has when I look at it wit binocular
someone wants to learn about hyraxes tell em about hyraxes
Getting compared to the clam talk and people calling it annoying kinda put me off
But lets leave it
Happened yesterday stays yesterday
There isnāt one but you can spot an animal + go click its track right after to see what fur type it is
Also disturbed vegetation at later tiers combined with track knowledge lvl 3 (in the stalker skill tree) will show you a new type of track specific for fur types
I just use the binoculars to check the spotted ones though lol
Works on most maps, itās bugged on a couple like askiy
I use pack mule over disturbed veg so hearing other people using it is always surprising to me
i use veg
i prefer fruit
depends on the dish tbh
I js wanna get atleast 1 g1 of something idc what it is
Wait
is pielbald harlequin duck rare?
You could eventually lol just make sure you claim all your male kills. Wonāt turn into G1s otherwise
When I first started and stuff and bought maps I ran around killing everything before I learned abt g1 and stuff
so it messed up my whole thing
Nah you didnāt mess up anything lol practically guaranteed
Even if ya dead zoned the hell out of things lol
what g1 animals are there do you know
Yea thereās a bunch
Black bear, moose, whitetail, mule deer, roe deer, red fox, pheasant, tahr, uhhhh
pheasant? like the little bird thing
Yep
is that a easy g1 or nah
Wild boar
ik fallow deer is
Fallow, gray wolves, reds
Think that might be it lol
Yes
Theyāre dope as hell lol
If you wanna do that Iād suggest Yukon and just shoot every male you see
Depends if you see it that way
G1 German Doner kebab comingnwith next map btw
Feed zone grind
Shoot every male wolf i see?
Pretty easy if you have waterfowl blinds and tents
Pretty much yeah
I have tents and tripods
do it
The issue with this is shooting a solo and having a g1 accidentally show up as a solo
now i js gotta find there zones
Thereās some kinda crappy zones on Yukon but most are pretty open for shooting. I just shot down my yuck zones so I didnāt have to bother lol
Here
Yukon? Or a different map
They will bounce around a bit just fyi so some zones may go from 2-3 males to 1 or even 0 lol
Dont worry about it for now lol not needed for them or a g1
Get used to shooting and working your zones first lol youāll get a better idea of how hm works and what to do as you go on
so what do I do js go to zones and setup tents
Basically yeah
Ideally you want to maximize how many zones you can get to with your tent placement
But if thereās crappy zones like I said, tbh Iād set up on some of those first as well as ābetterā zones so you can work on shooting the crappy ones down. Then youāll be free to focus on easier zones
Heres Yukon if you want do that
eh it's only like 40 iirc
Medved taiga and askiy have zones all across the map
Yea not bad at all
Yukon is likely your best bet
40 or less depending on how many solos you have
Yukon has the least amount of wolf zones so itās gonna be the easiest if youāre looking for small pops lol
Which is why bouncing around to most/all zones is doable
im ngl bro im lwk still confused š
Just shoot and claim males. Thatās all lol
Go forth. Shoot. Be free.
Donāt give yourself a headache worrying abt all the extra faff lol
G1 hunts can be as complicated or simple as you want. Everyone is gonna tell you how to minmax it. If itās easier to just forget it all and shoot/claim ish as you please- literally just do that lol
whats everyones fav animals
Mule deer
valid
what level do I shoot
Idk I like raccoons n the lil fuzzy critters
5 and over
But thatās for hm lol
Levels donāt matter if youāre just shooting them all
Your g1 could spawn off a low lvl male as long as you claim it lol
Anyone playing Australia I can join?
furry critters like this guy?
Hell yea
whats the diamond wolf?
39
do u play on ps5
piebald is only rare on green winged teal and northern pintail
Nah only Atari
what
do u have green winged teal mapM
of like zones
ADDD NATIVE KEYBOARD AND MOUSE TO XBOXXXX pls
Theyāre only on Mississippi and New England
ik but like I need map of zones
Thank you
Yea but thereās more than a couple variations for each
Male and female both have different piebalds, and each have a couple variations
So thereās a few
As seen here lol
how do u get it show the percent of the fur type
Settings, bottom of the page
oh yeah percents are allowed now
You know whats weird?
i want reparations for the time i was warned for sharing percentages 2 years back i was falsely persecuted
you
There are probably accounts in here that used to be active, but aren't anymore because the owners passed away
well seamus thats a bit grim
Why you gotta make it depressing
Could've just said something like oh they quit discord or deleted the app
I wonder what happened to that guy from New Zealand who was pretty cool
He just disappeared
yo.
which one
we've had many kiwis
I dont remember thatš
Which one x2
Might still be around just not in the server tbh
TrollVI needs to learn people skills
he wont be learning them here anyway
afaik he got the ban hammer on his way out
im sure he had a hissy about it elsewhere
yeah i died but then my dog took over my discord account
pretty neat huh
do u have tahr g1 map?
zone*
Ugh
Hold on I got auto modded for that lol
Search āproxck discordā in Google or some ish and join his server lol links blocked for some reason now
Heās got a bunch of hotspot maps hosted in his server
can u dm me the link
Nah itāll just come up on Google lol my dms settings are closed
what are the green dots
I think they might possible need zones i cant remember
I dont really grind tahr and havent used the map really
it's almost like it's on the image
Green dots
i have like three more solo zones to shoot down and that's it. All my exteriors on te awaroa are shot down
Me waiting on any news about the new map
Give it a week or two
With the history May 20-25 will be the tease
Also just because shoutout to Arshak, I hope heās doing good
Also Vivi, havenāt heard anything from them. Hope yall doing good
M
feed zones
twin keeps those dms locked down
did you get it or still need the link?
link
Can you say please
Yea cuz discord is weird lol
Learnin manners on COTW discord
Like 3 weeks ago I lwk got sexually harassed so I feel you twin
And by lwk I mean high key like blatantly
Sorry as hell to hear that
People suck lol
Itās ok tbh Iāve gotten used to it by now
Unfortunately it be like that
Shouldnāt have to be used to it but yknow š„²š„²
Why canāt people just be normal lmfao
It is not that hard to just. Keep private thoughts to yourself and not harass people lol
Everything will be okayš«
I don't like people harass someone else on every discord and everyone's account on social media
The voice chats as a woman is like the trenches
People just weird like that idk how to tell ya
Thanks
When I was like 11 playing call of duty grown adult men were hitting on me
I did not just get jumpscared by a twig rn
So I lwk just threw the mic in the trash
Yea voice chats are absolute cesspits. Sorry to hear that
Thatās happened to me before š
I was prone auto crawling lmfao š„²
Loll
I once got called slurs on terraria
I literally just misplaced some rainbow bricks too
I feel like Seamus doesnāt like hit on women theyāre just naturally scared of him or something
Iāve been called a lot of slurs in my day š
Same tbh idk anyone who hasnāt š
I was in my prime in modern warfare 2š„²
I don't hit on women, women hit me
Seamus Iām wheezing šomfg
By this statement he probably means with emotional damage
Nope
Oh
I have been attacked multiple times
Iām not sure if I should make a joke about this or apologize š
Define attacked pleaseš
Iām sorry that people are hitting you Seamus but lwk I feel like I would instinctively grab my pepper spray if I saw you coming
Heās a very chill dude actually š
Thrown into a locker, spun(by the ankles), thrown into the ceiling(I'm super light). All because they said I was cute tooš
All of that has happened to me but not cuz I was cute lol
Iām sorry they hurt you Seamus
SON
Broš
No?????? Oh my god š

Everyone I think we should move on š
No?? wtf
Letās not encourage grown adults flirting with minors lmao! Thatās gross. Anyway
Noš

Yeah anyway
No not on topic šš
Listen we have to cleanse the chat
Raccoon g1 would be nice
Heinous things I think 99.9% of us would like to move on from
oh sweet jesus
Raccoon g1 would be awesome
A weird person
Waiting on those clues every day, few weeks left
For real. Not long now thankfully š
If they let me reveal the clues, yall would be confused and sad
Petition to remove seamus's moderator status

Yeah, that was very... non cotw
I just kinda switched to a different server then just came back to this one when I saw it happening ngl
Anyways
My blankets have been stolen off my bed, I fear I may freeze once the cold of the night reaches me
I wish itās so hot hereš
happy mother's day btw
and the same to anyone else here who has munchkins

Was it Chrissy?
ANYWAY š„¹
yall want cool game management news from Colorado?
Cotw amirite
cause I got cool news
Absolutely
Awwwwww thank you honse
Hyrax already knows but
No, chrissy is under my bed since she's upset we let my nephews and niece in the house
weve got biblical amounts of elk here bois
Despicable
Was this the thing that you said in off topic or am I remembering wrong
2025 report showed 339,000 elk, up from 308,000 in 2024
What is off topic?
jfc that is a jump
ive randomly told people in several channels so probably
Thousands of elk a year is insane
mild winter + a fantastic calving season mean like a 35% recruitment rate
a good rate is usually like 12%
for anyone who doesnt know what calf recruitment means
Oh yes now I remember
its what percentage of documented born calves survive to be yearlings
Yeah you did tell me and happie in off topic because we were also talking about saiga
a number this high is absurd and only seen in VERY healthy populations
yeah we went on a whole rampage with conservation stuff
Indeed
Whereās the people that were saying they shouldnāt introduce wolves cuz it would decimate elk populations again? Lol
I would also like to point out
Which we need to do everywhere
the current North American elk population is 1.2 million animals
Huge Ws for elk and saiga alike
So yāall got a decent chunk of em then lmao
so Colorado has 28% of the continent's elk population
Hogging them all smh
and when you include all the asiatic wapiti something stupid like 11.5% of all elk on the planet
is that factoring in moose
meta joke ngl
Not real btw
deer herd is finally back up above 400k animals too
that was a genuine 4am question because we call em elk here
š
from 384k in 2024 to 408k in 2025
Here in the winter
I could not survive this
ah i gotchu; nah it dont include meese
How does one live like this
I'm glad Texas weather is typically warm
"Welcome to Minnesota" momentsš
the meese are also doing well though
seamus my coffee jar is describing you
Reminds me of that one yeti from monsters Inc
I think it's a conspiracy, and there is actually no one living in the north
about 3400 animals still
this herd stems from like 40 animals brought in in like 1982
they found their niche and they went for it bruh
As they should
fur lined jackets, 3 to 4 layers of clothing with thermal underwear, and a lot of spite
mtn goat and bighorn also staying stable as well
Always good to hear
oh and the mountain lions are growing with the elk
checkmate to Montana and its ignorance abt how predators work + their ass management policies
cars do a number on them
The more the cities grow the more roads = less pumas
POV: you're an englishman watching your general describe the Scottish Highlands so you can justify the clearances to yourself
Which one of 2 larger predators here
When this happened when it got this cold we didnt have school for the entire weekš
Elaborate on this lol
Our cars litterly couldnt turn on...
It was to cold
Weak cars
oh they have half the elk that CO does and proportionally fewer cows due to a higher bull to cow ratio but issue equal more cow tags than we do
Not complaining lmao
Thats how you know its truly freezing
their rifle season is also a single massive 8 week block that keeps them pressured, which in large mammals causes severe stress that often results in early miscarriage
so they have abysmal calf/cow rations like a quarter of normal
and calf recruitment has been sub 3 percent for like 8 years
Im still counting the days for upland bird season to open back up
a normal range for calf recruitment is supposed to be like 9-12 percent
15 to 18 is good
bruh that's like. Frostpunk-type cold there š
Lwk I donāt keep up with the hunting seasons
CO is godlike
calf recruitment? didnt know the job market was so strapped in the States
Just shoot invasives
Even those have seasons for some reason
oh and elsewise about the CO elk pop
if we cut out the entire canadian elk population
which is like
340,000 animals
No they donāt lol
At least not here
Here ye
the US has like 850 to 900k
so CO has close to two fifths of the country's elk
we are a walking big game W
Itās also a small selection of states that can hold elk lol
even if we discount the reintroduced herds we're still looking at oregon, washington, california, idaho, utah, nevada, new mexico, arizona, texas, colorado, wyoming, montana, and both dakotas
as well as kansas and nebrasks
If u go to the Louisiana Bayou they pay you to kill invasive stuff I think
Cali mention RAHHHHH
16 out of 50 aint too bad

colorado š š
At least this year mute swans were allowed to taken year round
Yeah.... 32%
Yeah. Last time I checked, you got payed for bringing in nutria tails
and even then we still gotta include the reintroduced herds
Yes this
so Kentucky, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Missouri, Minnesota
Iirc nutria are too.. I cant remember though
scotland casually holding over a million of different species of deer in just 70,000km squared
Thatās where I live lol
Oh if an elk walks through my yard in Minnesota im shooting that and putting it on my wall lmao
its honestly shocking how well they retained their biodiversity
that biodiversity is becoming a biological nightmare because of the Rika deers
theres like 280 of them and the state government will find you and sell your house to pay the fine š
Ayyyy same time zone lol
I canāt only think of 4š
Nope ima harvest it and eat it to fast
And say I shot it in Wyoming or something
kirby headass
š
but seriously dont commit felony wildlife violations
Then dfw Wyoming will hunt you down
Yeah I know I was joking
a million individuals of those 4 species is what he meant lol
No promises
Thereās a dead deer floating outside our house šš
Ohhh lmao Iām dead
As a fisheries and game management as my career I dont think that would be very smart and it would feel wrongš
We've got a pidgeon problem in the warehouse at work and Im constantly thinking wheres my 22
Free venison
š
yeah just a little bit lmfao
Eww no
roadkill harvest licenses be like
The F150 is my weapon of choiceš
It was drinking this morning and I pointed it out to my husband and within like 2 minutes it got death rolled
pidgeons arent the problem the people who abandoned them after communication systems evolved are
mfs in pennsylvania be like lmfao
I forgot u had a husband nglš
Lmao
Im in the US, they are a non native invasive species here.
"Yes officer the elk ran into my truck I didnt see it"
lol he hasnāt been here in a while cuz he got temporary banned lol
they also are functionally immune to avian flu and carry no more diseases than your regular garden songbird
He was stirring up trouble lmao
"Go fast, die last"
if anything they carry less because they have better disease resistance
Oh lol
there are several native pidgeons in the US..
The pigeon is king of the birds
among them being band-tailed pigeons
you didn't specify which pigeon
Are we counting doves in this
hmmm
im not sure what the difference is supposed to be tbh
but if we do
mourning and whitewinged
They aren't the kings at making nests though (iyk, yk)
Lol
It was earlier maybe idk
Theres so much cotw we can talk about
When its the dry season especially
vaguely and in some direction
i like cotw
Itās cotw adjacent
i figure as long as people arent hating on each other, being racist, being sexist, or committing harassment and other violations we're good
Me too
They both in columbidae so they related at least thats why I asked
It's 5am I can't read yet
no way, ive NEVER met anyone else who has ever played this game before
Why you on discord at 5 am
valid; im just not sure what any distinctions between the two might be
Because bright phone helps eyes wake up
fun fact, this is because normal pigeons are-
damn realization
i thought you were much later in the day than me
doves and pigeons may be the same
What everyone calls a common pidgeon is the blue rock dove.
but anyway
theyre north african rock doves
i dont have a good concept of timezones ig
they dont make nests in the wild they put the egg in a crack or krag on a sandstone cliff
No way! Dang its almost like a bunch of people who love cotw are in a cotw discord server lol
sometimes their brooding perch can have them borderline sideways
pigeon on the Y axis, what will it do
what i call a pigeon is any number of birds in columbidae
whats the cotw discord server called?
Thats the jokeš
the official one not some other one
Explains alot
It's actually 5:30
theHunter: Call of the Wild
And that is taxonomically incorrect
I have 15 mins to get ready and make a smoothie
okay ill join rn

Why not just make the smoothie now
Okayš
Never too early for a smoothie
hi everyone im new my name is adoeable
Heyyyyyy
Because I don't have smoothie fruits in my bed
Everyone introduce yourself
uh
just joined the server, i like cotw a lot
Columbidae is the taxonomic family
Same girl
that includes all doves and pigeons
Me too wanna join a cotw server
yeah i love that game
Thats why I brought it up
never have i been so flabbergasted
Okay me too, its called: theHunter: Call of the Wild
more importantly I have an answer now
The bird knowledge comes in clutch at times
the distinction is purely colloquial
Son Iām so dumb I thought this say colubridae
smaller ones are generally called doves in English
Im a professional at identifying birds
Im only good at native birds...
Sadly
theres several small bodied species called pigeons
and large bodied species called doves
Bird knowledge dont extend past my state
Give me a picture of one ill identify it
Lemme find a random one
Im an expert on animals I can confirm that is indeed a bird bro
Random bird generator helping alot
did ya know we have specialised old buildings in scotland called Doocots where doves and pigeons nest
Birds in Patagioenas and a few others such as Columba are called pidgeons. Zenaida are doves.
I'm an expert at deer and si can confirm this is not a deer
Yes
That was going to be my joke if I didnt know it lmao
i did not, thats quite neat
I didn't even see what type of black grouse it was I know it wasnt the usual one we know from cotw
I think itās a male Lyrurus mlokosiewiczi
Sorry my joke now
Expected worm to say our joke
Or Caucasian grouse
Its okay lol
Can my smootie make itself I have to leave in 8 mins buhuuu
what'd you put in it
This one has a interesting name to say the least
starting a black bear grind soon, but also going to set up for roe and moose too.. so I'll have 4 grinds set up at once
again, there's no true distinction between the two names and they arent consistent
Nothing yet I'm still in my room
aur š
banana strawberry blueberry greek yogurt ice water >>>
I'd have banana strawberry blueberry if it existed
Cocaine, meth, fentanyl, heroine, you know the good stuff
But they only have banana strawberry
patagioenas is a member of the columbidae family..

if blueberries arent real what tf am i eating?
columbidae is the family patagioenas is the genus
Idk man
the only broad thruline is that larger bodied Columbiforms are usually called pigeons and smaller bodied ones are usually called doves
6 mins I can do it
this, again, is not consistent at all
and in colloquial language pigeon and dove are also swapped
This one might be a little too difficult
