hound-killed-by-wolves.jpg i bet that the one that did this was'ntThat looks like a hybrid to me. It's tan and black suggesting GSD blood? its a hound dog mate a very cheap to feed hound dog

Been reading up on this a little and I,m more confused than when I started, apparently certain wolves gray wolve for example are identical in there DNA make up with domestic dogs, and have cross bred since man first domesticated dogs, so the two main questions that spring to mind are how can you tell if they are pure or not if they carry the same DNA and what damage is it doing if they are genetically identical and have been doing it since the year dot, I know it's never a good idea to put human feelings on animals and I,m sure many would love the ideal of doing this but it is the equivalent o

I bet them poodle owners are rubbing there hands with glee now they have another animal they can stick doodle or woodle in the title and charge a small fortune for, but on a more serious note if it's genetically possible for dogs to breed with Wolves why are,nt there hundreds of hybrids around, like the Scottish wild cat that is on the verge of being swollowed up by hybridisation so there would be a percentage of dog DNA in a lot of wolves as they have both been about for hundreds of years, wolves vary in colour from white to black so the picture shows very little to prove cross breeding, a li

well I think if you want to go and live in another country you should try to join in with as much local activity as possible,

Probably been seen in other places aswell and that's the picture from a cam that the websites used . Tbh I quite like the pictures. Just sets of eyes in the darkness gives them a mythical look I recon it,s a pack of bedlington whippets chasing a fox,

And I get stick over my pictures, they can't really have identified them from that picture surely

First clue shark bay? Enough said

if you wrap a ball of small shot in toilet paper it holds together long enough to clear the forks that was our childhood method of dropping starlings on the wing I think you can get pouches with a small bucket shape in the middle now for firing multiple shots

With no size comparison I,m suspecting a red herring and looking at the grass I,m going to say domestic cat

. I make my own fatballs when I have the time but I don't put whole seeds,when the seed's a covered in fat it's hard for them to get a grip on them I blend up a mixture of seeds then add porridge and other bit's and pieces' then roll them unto big balls What binds it together P ? The lard pal. Gotcha ..I'll give that a go later .. I used to make them in coconut shells, drill a hole in the end thread some string through fill with lard and seed mix pop in the fridge then hang them up for the tits when there set

Anyone else? As a nice little bonus to the bird feeding does anyone else shoot rats at night on there feeder, I,m on 3 my son is on 2 at the moment for this season though I,m expecting a fresh wave as the cold comes in, good bit of urban hunting

not for many years I worked in Berkeley power station over 35 years ago so I expect it's changed since then though I still drive past it regular as I have a mate that lives on a boat in sharpness so I usually spend my beer tokens in the dockers club if I,m up there

It's just government taking more rights away from people, if my kids were young I would not even allow them to go to school today as the schools have as much if not more rights than the parents over the kids and it won't stop until the state has the last word in everything we say and do, mine are all big enough to smack me back so it's not really an issue but I still find it very sad day

they also fight to the death with other robins and are so territorial that they sing all night long to alert everyone that it's there patch, so if you here bird song at night it's nearly always a robin, they are also normally the first to start the dawn chorus in summer followed by blackbirds, the rounder a birds eyes the better there night vision this is why robins and blackbirds sing first, as they have the best eye site

if you come this side of the river mate have a look at the three horse shoes in frampton on Severn, it's like walking in someone's house, most evenings the men play guitars and the women sing there is no jukebox or telly just a roaring fire and the landlady makes a pie that has gained nationwide fame it's only £8 but you will struggle to walk if you finish it and to cap it off they sell black rat on draught, I know of an even more spit and sawdust pub further along the Severn near Worcester called the camp house inn there are chickens and peacocks walking around in the bar

. I do see bully,s but not in my garden I cover quite a lot of ground on my walks and normally see one or two pairs a year, but never loads, best bird I get on the feeders is a pair of blackcaps but they only come if we are about to get some really cold weather so make a good weather forecast, I buy mealworms in 20kg bags online, someone mentioned at the start that they are just a husk with no nutrition in them, I soak them in hot water before I feed them and they rehydrate into a full worm it also stops them blowing away in the wind, I had a male sparrow hawk in the tree this week watching th

Lots of reports and some footage coming out of Mississippi at the moment of what appears to be a large black cat, looking at the footage it could be the first black mountain lion caught on film, even some experts are agreeing it's also been heard calling at night adding more weight to the case of it being a puma, this has been another contentious issue which has been argued over for years

I would say your about right mate I buy and sell lots of things and roughly 50percent new value is a fair place to be,

bit bored ? I very much doubt you would pose this question to a room full of strangers so why should you think it's ok from behind your keyboard, I expect amongst your invisible audience there are people that may have had to go through this for many reasons many of them not because they are slags, but correct me if I,m wrong you also like chucking out the odd comment against people's kids that are not all the same, I just took my dogs for a walk because I was bored, much more enjoyable and far less offensive than trying to get a rise from others misfortunes

Anyone used the flir scout tk, looks like quite a good bit of kit for the money £500/£600 I,m thinking of getting one but would like to hear from anyone who has had personal experience before I shell out my shillings, lots of vids on YouTube for anyone interested

The problem with the rich and famous it's impossible for them to leave the system that made them, were as an old peasant like me would just disappear into the woods with my back pack of goodies and pop back up at the end of the show, making less than interesting tv, it's a good insight into the powers of the state but don't be expecting to see many cunning survival skills they rely on modern technology and the state owns most of it
