Bienvenidos a Cañada Del Venado
A small hunting reserve situated in the state of Michoacán covered in vast desert, hills and mountains rugged terrain but still a vast place to hunt, hosting several species of bird, waterfowl and our most popular addition the "Gray Ghost" the Coues Deer

[tidal sail]

I’d like this, definitely seems better than what Rancho currently is (Species list) And I’d definitely hunt this!

[small shoal]

In a way its me repurposing #1379710865435267124 and using it for a small map thats bird and waterfowl focused like Salzwizen

[sterile cradle]

I really like the small game but I’d leave off mulies and bighorn, and maybe swap raccoon for armadillo

I rather keep the raccoons but ima maybe swap mulie for something else or remove them entirely

And bighorn are staying

[worldly oracle]

Does it come with an ice cream place that happens to be neon pink?

[small shoal]

Maybe it might

[clear gate]

dont forget they can hybridize with teal

[mild basalt]

Maybe some type of lizard? Ik gila monsters and iguanas live out there

Bats, roadrunners and white nosed coati apparently, could they be contenders?

[small shoal]

I did consider reptiles like the green iguana and Mexican beaded lizard ill possibly add them and remove something else

The issue with roadrunners is the same reason I removed the American coot off garnet crest was they arent really considered a game animal

[mild basalt]

I’m unfamiliar with this term: game animal. Do you care to explain?

[small shoal]

Any animal regularly hunted for sport basically

[mild basalt]

Oh well animals can be hunted for a variety of reasons, which you might know: conservation, population regulation, raw materials. Of course that’s not why you hunt in Cotw but since animals can be hunted that way irl why not add them to cotw then also?

Michoacán, Mexico (Small Map)

[small shoal]

Decided to revive this a bit and maybe work on it more still considering adding different species, removing some or replacing some entirely just unsure what to add

I did add the Mexican gray squirrel

[loud wave]

The thing is that the only canvasback caller (works on blue bills, ring neck etc) in real life is the Haydel diver duck call, I have one in real life and I have made an audio clip of what it could sound like in game, female tufted & ferruginous ducks make a brr sound so the call would work for them aswell even though the aren’t on this small game park. Now if you want me to do a more realistic sound with the call I will do it, but as of right now idk

(Edit: I forgot to mention ferruginous duck in the video)

[small shoal]

So from what I understand I change it to beacon deluxe?

[loud wave]

You don’t have too, I just like how cotw add the extra words to the duck & geese calls when rev coast was added

Also sorry for my poor calling skills, the Haydel’s diving duck call is a pro series call, and I am not a pro. Though I been practicing with it a little bit

[small shoal]

It sounds alright from what I hear but personally not much of a duck hunter irl myself
