Dr. Philippe Pibarot has been studying seal heart valves to see if they might be a better transplant option for humans than those from cows or pigs, believing they may be more durable than the other animal tissue. They'll exploit anything to try to save their barbaric trade and, if they can use guilt, even better.

Here is a New York Times blog post about wolf hunting. While this belief might not compel us to be vegetarians, it does demand significant changes in the way we raise animals for food, and it forbids wolf hunting as a form of entertainment. How much do you want to bet that Randy Cohen eats cows and pigs?

Great horneds are known as the “Tiger of the Woods&# because they’ll hunt anything and they are good at it, but they are slow and stealthy. He returned less than 30 minutes later with surprising news. The beak was from a House Finch , that didn’t surprise me. But the jawbone…that was from a bat!

It’s the boar hunting season. Cows and water buffaloes grazing the dried up lakebed under the imposing shadow of Mt.

Niman’s suggestion that the findings do not apply to smaller farms, the United Nations and the University of Chicago reports demonstrate the inefficiency of beef “production” because a cow must be fed to convert grass or grain calories into protein before a human can consume even “humane” or grass-fed beef.

With the proposed hunting seasons on sandhill cranes being discussed in Tennessee, Kentucky and Wisconsin, we must not forget the whooping crane, which travels and winters in the big sandhill crane flocks. More states will doubtless join the queue of those proposing hunts. Another thing to consider. Now, it’s time to go to the top.

There is a water trough for the dairy cows, but sometimes the Pacific Black Ducks take advantage of the trough! Foxes were introduced to Australia in 1855 for hunting and have established themselves far and wide. I also often observe a pair of Wedge-tailed Eagles towards the hills on my left as I follow this section of trail.

To the Editor: Your editorial against my proposal to thin the elk herd in Theodore Roosevelt National Park (“ Elk Hunting in the Badlands ,” July 8) missed the mark in several key respects. First, nobody has proposed creating “a broad precedent for public hunting in the national parks.” My proposal does no such thing.
