Ruger is lIsed to illustrate maximum handgun power. My handloads have been used in some 400 demonstra­ tions. A recent shooting show in Fort Worth with over 9,000 spectators was televised. Jugular bullets are lIsed for my hobby of long range varmint hunting, and wadcuuers for short range targets and "trick" shooting. Handloaded rifles in .244 and .222 are my favorite long guns, with 12 gao shotguns. A .270 is used in law enforcement work and for larger game. I'd like to fill another room with awards, but the Department is so busy there isn't much time for competitive shooting. Duty must come first. Demonstrations are done without pay, many on my own time. I hope to encourage gun and traffic safety, better understanding of firearms, and especially a public pro·gun feeling.

  • Burned to Be Wild: Science, Society, and Ecological Conservation In
    BURNED TO BE WILD: SCIENCE, SOCIETY, AND ECOLOGICAL CONSERVATION IN THE SOUTHERN LONGLEAF PINE by ALBERT GLOVER WAY (Under the Direction of Paul S. Sutter) ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the development of ecological conservation and science in the southern coastal plain’s dominant ecosystem – the longleaf pine-grassland forest. It examines how the impetus for conservation changed over the long twentieth-century from concerns over bodily health, landscape aesthetics, and recreation, into concerns for ecological integrity and landscape diversity, and argues that the biocentric turn in twentieth-century science and society was rooted in the very processes of production that it sought to moderate. To unearth this story, it focuses on the region surrounding Thomasville, Georgia and Tallahassee, Florida, known as the Red Hills, where wealthy northerners came after the Civil War and Reconstruction in search of health, and remained to convert failing farms and plantations into winter retreats and hunting preserves. In the years covered here, roughly 1880-1960, this land of wealth and poverty was a working landscape that produced a variety of goods and supported a large number of people; yet, at the same time it was a conservation landscape and laboratory where a great deal of scientific knowledge about the longleaf pine-grassland environment came to light. The central figure in this dissertation is Herbert L. Stoddard, an ornithologist, wildlife biologist, and ecological forester who came to the Red Hills in 1924 as an agent of the U.S. Bureau of the Biological Survey to examine the life history and preferred habitat of the bobwhite quail.

  • History of Wildlife Management in West Virginia
    History of Wildlife Management in West Virginia This article is a synthesis of two documents: a popular article for Wonderful West Virginia magazine written by Walt Lesser in 1996 and a comprehensive Historical Review of Game Management written by Jack Cromer in 2002. Both authors are retired wildlife biologists from the DNR Wildlife Resources Section. rom time to time, a look at the past prevents repeating mistakes or, at least provides satisfaction in seeing progress. In retrospect, the wildlife management profession in West Virginia experienced the Fsame ills and shortcomings that were typical elsewhere. Human population expansion, industrial growth and development of steam power all led to the exploitation of this state’s timber and wildlife resources following the Civil War. Such settlement and exploitation led to critically reduced numbers of some species, causing much concern to some people searching for means to change the course of events. History has shown that wildlife management usually started with the control of hunting followed by refuge establishment, “vermin control,” restocking (game farming), and environmental controls (habitat protection and enhancement). Laws and Law Enforcement Several species of large animals native to West Virginia were all killed off before hunting laws were passed. Elk, woodland bison and gray wolves were among the casualties. When West Virginia assumed statehood in 1863, it adopted a code of game and fish laws that had been enacted in the State of Virginia in 1849. The West Virginia Legislature passed its first law protecting wildlife in 1869 – killing game between February 14 and September 15, and killing certain species of birds was prohibited.

  • Environmental Health: Control of Classification # Vermin/Pest 4005R-A
    416R EFFECTIVE DATE SUBJECT 04/04/14 ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH: CONTROL OF CLASSIFICATION # VERMIN/PEST 4005R-A DISTRIBUTION APPROVED FOR WEB POSTING PAGE 2 OF A 10 PAGES X YES NO IV. PROCEDURE A. Integrated Pest Management Program The Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Program is a three pronged approach to vermin/pest control. The program components are sanitation, vermin proofing, and the use of traps and the most target specific, least toxic pesticides to control and prevent vermin and pest activity. An effective sanitation program decreases the food supply and provision of shelter necessary for the habitation of vermin and pests. Vermin proofing consists of “building out” vermin and pests thereby preventing access into the facility. The identification and remediation of vermin entry points, including, but not limited to, missing and torn screens, missing drain covers, holes, gaps and separations along the floor, wall and ceiling, and missing door sweeps is essential to a successful IPM program. All staff members shall generate work orders to abate these conditions. Utilization of traps and the least toxic, most target specific pesticides is the final component of the program. B. Duties and Responsibilities 1. Commanding Officers shall ensure: a. All areas of the facility are clean and free of vermin entry points; b. All vermin related deficiencies cited on the public health sanitarian reports and other regulatory agency and oversight agency reports are abated expeditiously; c. All schedules and inspections detailed in this directive are adhered to; d. Adequate staffing is provided for all vermin/pest related tasks; e. All garbage, refuse, and recyclables are stored in tightly secured containers; f.
