Antler

In this chapter, I outline the biological characteristics of caribou and the nature of their use by the Denesųłiné. I introduce biological data on their natural history, phylogeny, physical attributes, behaviour and migration in the first section. These data build a foundation for understanding caribou harvest. It summarizes biological characteristics of caribou that were exploited by harvesters. The second section provides data on the cultural use of caribou. It charts harvest levels to identify

this past year, the agency has established some new regulations that have caused an uproar in the hunting community. The two rules which have been headlined in most conversations is the new two buck limit for the states hunting season, and the new antler restrictions on what is considered a buck. Due to the success of many other states with fewer buck limits, TWRA has established these rules. These new rules are designed to have long-term affects on not only hunters, but also possibly the whole state

The Sami people are as close you can get to a real-life fairy tale. They live in the far-off mountains of Scandinavia, one of the most beautiful places in the world, and singing songs to express their feelings is a major part of their culture. They even herd the same animals as Santa Claus, the adorable reindeer, for a living. But while everything about the Sami may seem like it’s all sugarplum and gumdrops, the reality is from ideal. Reindeer herding is by no means easy, or profitable, and it’s

Ötzi the Iceman Today, we found the body of a man, stuck in the ice. He was found in the Ötzal Alps in Italy, this is why we have given him the name Ötzi the Iceman. We believe that he was born between the years 3359 and 3105 BCE and that he died close to the year 3239 BCE at the age of forty-five. Ötzi died due to an arrowhead in his left shoulder. He then lay in the woods while the snow and ice froze around and above him, preserving his body which we see today. Along with the discovery of Ötzi

Martin is the artist who made Winter Ghost. Emily is an artist that does many different types of artwork. Emily usually posts artwork on deviant art. Winter Ghost is a 2-D abstract linoleum print of a deer that likes like it is made of grass with antlers that are trees on top of it and also has mountains behind it. In this artwork there looks like there is a figure of a woman in front of the deer looking right at it. I feel that this is a narrative or a ritualistic artwork that is about a Native

plains. As my father and I admired the beautiful display of nature before us, I spotted an interesting sight. Four hundred yards away, a dominant beast trotted proudly through the sorghum. Clearly a seasoned buck, his muscular stature and towering antlers were sufficient in warding off rival deer. Marveling at the trophy from a distance, I waited for my opportunity. After

The Art of Taxidermy and Why it Should Be Considered an Art “Let’s say you’re watching an old horror movie, one about a crazy madman who lives in a spooky house up on a hill. Local kids will become curious and decide to step foot into the house. The majority of the time the creepy man will have two things; paintings with the eyes cut out and a nice collection of mounted animals to give intruders a sense of fear. Then all of a sudden lightning flashes and a growling black bear is lit up, sending

a manner to touch me. She began to pet me and then I realized what I truly was. I believe I died in that pond. Giving my life for hers. I crouched down and let her climb on top of my back, allowing me to carry her back home. She grabbed the giant antlers on the top of my head so she wouldn’t fall off while I began to walk. We were quite awase from her destination so I took our time and drag out the last minutes I would have with her. She slowly fell asleep with our travel. I reached the end of the

to go get a Christmas tree and a doe got stuck in a pile of tree limbs. Clay Boy then goes and helps the doe but, as he was helping her a buck came and started charging at him with his antlers down. Then, Clay Boy runs and hides under a tree to protect himself. The deer started attacking the tree until his antlers, broke then he went away. Once the deer left Clay Boy finished helping the doe get free. The conflict is the buck attacking Clay Boy and the resolution is him hiding behind a tree. The

Many people have misconceptions about hunting. One such misconception is that hunting is easy and any person can go sit in the woods and wait for an animal to cross the hunter’s path. However, people who believe this are sorely mistaken. Hunting is not just sitting in the woods with a rifle; there are many other aspects that must be considered. An individual must have all preparations complete, purchase or gather the equipment needed, and know what to listen for while in the woods.      First
