On this episode we’re joined by Dr. Ashley Dumas, the Professor of Anthropology at the University of West Alabama. We are all fascinated by the Native American artifacts we often find on our hunting properties and hearing how they thrived in the wilderness. How did they hunt, forage, fish, make tools, set up villages and camps? Dr. Dumas explains fascinating aspects of the culture of the Native Americas.

On this episode we catch up with Kevin VanDam, one of our favorite Gamekeepers, to learn about his turkey season and what work he is doing for the upcoming deer season. Kevin is a fervent outdoorsman and loves improving his farm for wildlife. Apparently, what he is doing is working and we all can learn from his success as well as his trial and errors. It’s all about deer and turkeys.

On this episode we’re joined by Johnny Wilson, PhD, of Central Life Sciences to explain the invasive red and black imported fire ants (Genus Solenopsis). In the South these tiny ants are everywhere, and we wondered if and how they impact the wildlife we so dearly love.  The short answer is YES, they do! We wanted to learn about how they got here, how they operate, how to deal with them and can we control or at least suppress them without harming birds, reptiles, mammals and even other beneficial insects. We learned a lot and what we gleaned can help us all be better Gamekeepers. 

Listen, Learn and Enjoy.

On this episode we’re joined by two scientists from the US Geological Survey and we discuss the precipitous decline of many wild birds across America. Dr. Jeff Hostetler and David Ziolkowski explain the USGS breeding bird survey process and the data that’s been collected for almost 60 years on the many wild birds species we all seem to take for granted. It’s shocking to learn of the big decline in many of them. It’s an interesting and insightful, yet alarming discussion.
