Florida’s iconic Key deer face an uncertain future

Home Page News, National News, Nature Page & Night Sky /

The world’s only Key deer, the smallest subspecies of the whitetailed deer, are found in piney and marshy wetlands bordered by the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico on the Florida Keys. For years, their biggest threat was being struck by vehicles speeding along U.S. Highway 1 or local roads.
But those waters surrounding the islands now pose the biggest long-term risk for this herd of about 800 deer as sea rise jeopardizes their sole habitat.

However, it is doubtful the changes will survive under President-elect Donald Trump. Greater sage grouse were once found across much of the U.S. West. Their numbers plummeted in recent decades because of energy exploration, wildfires, disease, and other pressures.

Minnesota’s Pro Fishing Tip of the Week: Catchin’ big fish in the fall

Features, Fishing, Minnesota, National Fishing /

It is a must if you’re out fishing with a crew of anglers to have minnows. Fathead minnows are good. Real nice fatheads are better – meaning fatheads and not a mix of crappie minnows being sold as fatheads. Use minnows the way “Tackle Terry” Tuma talks about – when the fish are negative or neutral.

Steve Carney: Tips for using a deer decoy in late November

Features, Hunting, Minnesota, National Hunting /

This is the time of the deer-hunting season when I pull out my doe decoy that I’ve named “Bess.” She rests comfortably in my pole building all season, and then, when the whitetail rut arrives, she heads back to the field with me.
Utilizing a deer decoy can enhance your chances for success. Here are the reasons – and some tips – for why I use a deer decoy in late November.
