Judge to decide if science was used in setting Michigan’s coyote season dates

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, Michigan, National Hunting, National News, News /

Litigation against the Michigan Natural Resources Commission over its decision in March to restrict coyote hunting is moving ahead with the conclusion of legal briefs from both sides earlier this month.
Both Michigan United Conservation Clubs and the Michigan Trappers and Predator Callers Association sued the NRC after the commission in March closed coyote hunting during the whelping season, from April 16 through July 14. Those cases were consolidated in Ingham County Circuit Court, where Judge Wonda Stokes is now reviewing legal briefs from all parties before deciding whether oral arguments are necessary.

Michigan gun hunters tag nearly the same amount of deer as last year

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, Michigan, National Hunting, National News, News /

Michigan deer hunters reported a harvest of 135,963 whitetails during the 16-day firearms deer season, which ended Nov. 30. That includes 85,942 bucks and 50,021 antlerless deer reported through mandatory online registration.
That total is down less than 1% from the reported firearms harvest in 2023, according to the DNR.
“Overall, I think the season went pretty well,” DNR’s acting deer, elk and moose specialist Chad Fedewa told Michigan Outdoor News. “The (harvest) numbers were up substantially in the U.P.”

Tim Spielman: In the dark, windy woods, the death of a buck is a tough experience to witness

Featured, Features, Home Page News, Hunting, Minnesota, National Hunting, Nature Page & Night Sky /

On Oct. 9, my black Lab was the first to make the discovery. Going about her morning-relief rituals, she began an incessant barking – not the usual hey-neighborhood, I’m-up, sporadic barks.
At the far edge of my lawn, I could see something white. There’d been frost overnight – and my eyesight was still a bit bleary – but a singular frosty area didn’t make any sense. So I walked over to see what Liza’s fuss was about.
