#

I haven’t been there so I haven’t seen any so I can’t 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

#

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

The concept of the Lynx being reintroduced to the uk by 2030 is so exciting to me , I know it’s very unlikely I’ll ever see one in the wild but knowing they’re about and helping rebalance is wonderful

I wish the elk reintroduction into my state was more successful, would love to hunt those

2030 is hopeful , could be later as it’s an incredibly long process but ! Fingers crossed for the next few years

nimble sequoia
# lone drift Hmmmm

I mean weve got evidence of a northern latitude species that lived will into Canada in the prior glacial maximum so

#

wouldnt be shocked

sonic hill
#

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

nimble sequoia
#

especially since escaped captive animals from the exotic animal trade are known to live in Canada and New England

sonic hill
#

yeah, that's why the everglade is full of giant snakes now

waxen ginkgo
#

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

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

nimble sequoia
sonic hill
#

i like "cohabitation issues with humans"

nimble sequoia
#

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

sonic hill
#

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

nimble sequoia
#

they learned their shed cycles and understand theyre basically blind when in blue

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

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

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.

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

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

#

so 308k to 310k was the 2024 estimate right

and 2025

#

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

wanton zealot
#

Yk i cant talk we have 3 elk subspecies here

lone drift

Greek from colorado? No from greece

waxen ginkgo

We have only 1400 adults

Imagine 1400 dollars suddenly vanishing from your bank account

Going from tens of thousands to 1400 sucks actually

So those are high up on my list

Stuff like taipans and browns are just pure energy in a snake body

Something like Greece is great for snakes in europe

#

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

sonic hill
#

What are you grinding?

quiet sapphire
#

fallow

#

my best guess as to what happened

#

not a clue why

nimble sequoia
quiet sapphire
#

nah wasnt a solo

nimble sequoia
quiet sapphire
#

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

glacial dune
#

annihilate all coastal fallow deer

low garden
quiet sapphire
#

and it kept respawning big with the same group

glacial dune
#

whats tent spook range

quiet sapphire
#

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

sonic hill
#

if you shoot one out of a group, it may take a couple rotations before he respawns there

quiet sapphire
#

im aware

#

ive had several rounds of respawns and he hasnt reappeared at that coastal zone

There’s some kinda crappy zones on Yukon but most are pretty open for shooting. I just shot down my yuck zones so I didn’t have to bother lol

#

Here

#

Yukon? Or a different map

pulsar echo
#

i lwk dont know how to herd manage tho

#

😭

shrewd apex
#

They will bounce around a bit just fyi so some zones may go from 2-3 males to 1 or even 0 lol

shrewd apex
#

Get used to shooting and working your zones first lol you’ll get a better idea of how hm works and what to do as you go on

pulsar echo
#

so what do I do js go to zones and setup tents

shrewd apex
#

Basically yeah

#

Ideally you want to maximize how many zones you can get to with your tent placement

#

But if there’s crappy zones like I said, tbh I’d set up on some of those first as well as ā€œbetterā€ zones so you can work on shooting the crappy ones down. Then you’ll be free to focus on easier zones

wanton zealot
#

Heres Yukon if you want do that

pulsar echo
#

oh my lord

#

thats alot of zones

cobalt spear
#

eh it's only like 40 iirc

wanton zealot
#

Medved taiga and askiy have zones all across the map

shrewd apex
#

Yea not bad at all

wanton zealot
#

Yukon is likely your best bet

shrewd apex
#

40 or less depending on how many solos you have

#

Yukon has the least amount of wolf zones so it’s gonna be the easiest if you’re looking for small pops lol

#

Which is why bouncing around to most/all zones is doable

pulsar echo
#

im ngl bro im lwk still confused 😭

tough merlin
shrewd apex
#

Go forth. Shoot. Be free.

#

Don’t give yourself a headache worrying abt all the extra faff lol

# old lion Elaborate on this lol

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

fading magnet
wanton zealot
nimble sequoia
#

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

wanton zealot
#

Im still counting the days for upland bird season to open back up

nimble sequoia
#

a normal range for calf recruitment is supposed to be like 9-12 percent

#

15 to 18 is good

slate sluice
nimble sequoia
#

if you get above 20 thats peak

#

and above 30 is godlike

calf recruitment? didnt know the job market was so strapped in the States

Just shoot invasives

wanton zealot

if we cut out the entire canadian elk population

which is like

#

340,000 animals

old lion
#

At least not here

wanton zealot
#

Here ye

nimble sequoia
#

the US has like 850 to 900k

so CO has close to two fifths of the country's elk

The bird knowledge comes in clutch at times

nimble sequoia

the distinction is purely colloquial

old lion

smaller ones are generally called doves in English

fading magnet

while larger species are pigeons

Problem: this is not consistent in any way

theres several small bodied species called pigeons

and large bodied species called doves
