There are few sights more wrenching to a wildlife rehabilitator than a convulsing, lead-poisoned bird. In what some might see as an unlikely alliance, wildlife rehabilitators, veterinarians, and – yes – hunters have banded together to convince those who hunt to use copper bullets instead of lead.

About a quarter of the world’s Brown Bears live in Europe (including the Russian part of it), some 55,000, divided into nine separate and evermore fragmented populations – some of them dangerously tiny, a dozen or two dozen animals only. At the edge of the forest, above the road, a Roe Deer swiftly disappears between trees.

And here in Europe, they are the real deal, an indigenous species and not domesticated animals gone wild. Whenever I come here, I am focused on birds, but I have had some good mammal sighting as well: a roe deer swimming across a pond (only its head and antlers visible), a pair of otters playing in the water, a curious (young?)

Growing up in central Oregon, allowed me to experience such a diverse amount of habitat, and the wildlife that resides there. Pronghorn Antelope populations once exceeded 30 million animals, but by the turn of the century, was down to just a few small bands. The population is now estimated to be at over 500. I feel like I am home.

For a land that can lay claim to an abundance of such wonderful native wildlife, it’s peculiar that the national symbolism of Scotland is so populated by mythological creatures. Swans swim on a small pond on the distillery grounds and deer and otters can be found by a trail that runs beside the burn.

of Fish and Wildlife Commissioner Jon Gassett has indicated that if enough people write in protest, the proposed hunting season–due to start this December– will be reconsidered. Hunting is on a steady downturn, and nonconsumptive wildlife pursuits are on a tremendous upswing. We can fight them back in Kentucky, too.

Lots of squirrels, chipmunks, deer, rabbits. I'm not out in the country either (despite the wildlife.) None of my neighbors have cats and I'm only aware of one dog owner blocks away.

It tends to be the Jersey natives who drive too fast and refuse to build fences in their backyards who view wildlife as the enemy. You also note that “counting deer is an imprecise science” and that an aerial survey is expensive, “but some believe it yields the most accurate count.” The fault does not lie with the deer.
