Excellent description. The change is absolutely possible across generations without transporting animals…. But a healthy doe can drop fawns for as long as 15 years according to some senescence studies. That means that any “less than desirable” epigenetics she had at her birth will affect fawns...

We darn near wore out their 35hp. Our ground is FAR too hard for a tractor of that small of a size to handle it. We have what we call “black gumbo” clay. When wet, it is so sticky that it will entirely fill a wheel well from sticking to your tire. When dry, you need a jackhammer to dig a hole...

It is drastically different than “healthy and fit” much of that epigenetics is set in stone when the doe conceives the fawn. “Healthy and fit” implies results possible from improving diet and environment. That can not be done with epigenetics after the fawn is born. Sent from my iPhone using...

Epigenetics are pretty wild. Mammal mothers that have had access to higher nutrition for the entirety of their lives pass on genes that “turn on” for their offspring that they themselves didn’t have. When this happens over multiple generations, the difference in genetic expression can be pretty...

My parents picked up a 12’ batwing. I haven’t gotten to do any mowing with it yet, but it should be a welcome addition to the 75hp tractor they upgraded to this year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He stated that his ranch is known for some of the best genetics in Mexico, not that he was guaranteeing that every doe contained the best genetics. The person buying, breeding, and releasing the doe realistically gets at least 2 deer (possibly 3 if she births twins) with a high chance of good...

I consider a rifle less fair chase than being a public land bowhunter that uses cameras. I consider food plots to be equally baiting as a corn pile. I consider a box blind to be less fair chase than spot and stalk, tree stands/saddles, or ground hunting. And I consider any “sportsman” who...

Unless you are hunting in moccasins with a self made bow or atlatl, and processing the carcass with flint blades… I will give you opinion as much value as I paid for it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My hypothesis is that most of the reaction to trail cameras comes from sound. A single camera lens system, which 99% of cameras use, requires a UV/ND filter for daytime use, and the removal of that filter for nighttime pictures. There are also high frequency noises in cheap capacitors and cheap...

I travel for a living, 200-250 days a year in a different city every night. Let tell you…. I have not seen 1/4 the vacant buildings in any downtown as I saw a couple weeks ago in MSP. I’ve been doing this for 13 years, and MSP’s downtown businesses are DYING. Even the west coast, with homeless...

Considering that lots of people ONLY earn what the government pays them to sit at home… I’d bet that the funds fall short in short order. There is far more than 0.88% of the population that will do whatever they can to not work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You’re going to have to provide some actual evidence if you are making the claim that they are arresting citizens without warrant or witnessing a crime. I 100% believe that is partisan, non-factual, reporting. People seem to forget that ICE, as a federal law enforcement agency, have the...

I had replied referencing the same prices before realizing that he is talking about a different camera that was costing that much for live view. I deleted my reply after realizing he wasn’t talking about the Link 1.0 system. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one confused. Sent from my iPhone using...

That is the issue I had with browning, but my GardePro cameras don’t do it until MUCH lower voltage than the browning. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have moved away from browning cameras after a decade of exclusively using them.. their electronics can NOT handle voltage drop. They get very bad at triggering, maintaining video capture, and even card writing when battery voltage gets too low. I was stuck buying lithium AA’s twice a season...
