Everybody are in risk of pesticides. The persons who are spraying are directly on exposure. However thourgh food chain, water, air the pesticides will eventually enter any human beings.\n\nso though we thinks pesticides are only harmful to pests, preserve our foods, increasse crop production, they are causing loss of disturbances on as a whole ecology. Like you can take example of vulture endengered position. vultures are going to disappear, because we used lots fo diclofena to cattle during sick, after teh death of cattle we trhow it and the deasd body will be ate by vulture, tehn diclofenac will enter into body of vulture and will kill them.\n\nDeath of vulture  and their disappearance is also affecting we human people. previously within few hours the dead animals were cleared by vultures, now adays these are making disturnabce on natural baeuty .

Getting "Peppered" with bird shot while hunting is not all that uncommon an occurence. It happens. Most everyone who hunts birds will tell you that. Nothing would happen, it is an accident.\n\nThe uber-libs and the liberal media are blowing this completely out of proportion.

Yes although it's probably an allergic reaction to whatever is injected into the bird, not the actual bird.  I know someone who has allergic reactions after eating beef.

There are a lot of factors involved in sucessful archery hunting.  Becoming proficient with your bow is important.  This will only happen if your arrow (spine and length) is matched properly to your bow (draw weight, draw length, and broadhead weight).  Range estimation is critical.  I have found that trying to use a rangefinder is difficult under field conditions when the game is nearby due to the movement required.  If you hunt from a stand, mark 10, 20, and 30 yards from it with orange marker ribbon tied to trees or brush.  Use of sights and the type to use is a personal choice.  Some of the best bowhunters I know don't use any type of sights at all.  Knowledge of the habits of your quarry have a great influence on sucess.  Game animal movements are usually governed by access to food sorces and these change with the seasons, several times a year.  Most movement (except during rut) is between a food source and the nearest bedding area.  Try to set up to ambush animals moving from the bedding to the feeding area (evening) and back to the bedding area (morning).  Stalking and still hunting require a good deal of skill (practice) and an enourmous amount of patience, but can provide some of the most exciting oppurtunities.  Most people who try to stalk or still hunt move way too fast and just move the animals ahead rarely seeing them.  In thick cover, about 400-500 yards an hour is good.   Make certain you always use a razor-sharp broadhead.  Archery kills are made by blood loss, not trauma.  Patience is a virtue after the shot also.  Even if you are certain you made a vital hit, wait at least 30 minutes.  An hour is better, provided rain or snow isn't going to destroy the blood trail.  Speaking of which, you need to be able to follow the trail left by the animal.  Mostly this means blood trailing.  If you hunt in the evening and stick one near dark, you have to have a good light source to trail after dark.  A Coleman lantern is the best choice for this, but a 3 or 4 "D" cell maglite works and will fit in a backpack.  Blood less than a couple hours old is still very shiny in bright light.  Direction of blood spatters indicate direction of animal's movement and size and frequency of drops indicate speed of movement.  Large (8" or more) spots and puddles indicate the animal stopped for a period of time and bled in one spot.  Also watch for pieces of your arrow as all or some of it may work out of the wound.  Sorry for the long winded answer, but as I said, a lot goes into it.  Read any books by Chuck Adams, probably the finest bowhunter ever.  Good luck and good hunting.

Depends on where you live. Lakes and marshes a pretty good and I do pretty well on the golf course by my house nothing beat's shouting four and the hope that the dead goose doesn't take out some poor golfer when it hits the ground. You just can't keep the geese away from there. Corn or grain fields like milo and wheat are good if the hunting pressure is low. Try contacting your local chapter of Ducks Unlimited or your local Division of Wild Resources for a list of good places to hunt. Good luck

People and animals may be exposed to blue-green algae in three ways: by ingestion (eating algae or drinking algae-contaminated water); by direct contact with the algae (swimming or wading in algae-contaminated water or handling algae); or by breathing in algae components.\n\nPeople who swallow water contaminated with a toxic strain of blue-green algae may experience nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, liver problems or muscle weakness. The more blue-green algae a person drinks or eats, the sicker that person may become. The episodes of severe illness and death in people and animals in other parts of the world have been caused by drinking algae-contaminated water.\n\nAlgae can be removed from water by filtration. Boiling contaminated water or adding disinfectants will not destroy all of the toxins produced by blue-green algae. It will kill the algae but in so doing releases the toxins into the water.\n\nPeople whose skin comes into contact with a toxic form of blue-green algae through swimming or other activities may experience itching, rash, irritated eyes and ears, a sore throat or other hay fever-like symptoms. This may be caused by a person's sensitivity to the components of algae rather than actual toxicity.\n\nSome people may also be sensitive to the components of algae that are released into the air, especially downwind from a large bloom. Those who have allergies or asthma may be at increased risk for irritation of eyes and airways (nose, mouth and throat) and possibly an asthma attack.

Bushmeat is very common in Africa.  In some areas literally every non-poisonous animal is eaten.  In most there are certain taboo animals that are avoided, but most others are eaten.  The taboo animals vary, but creatures prohibited by the Qu'ran are a bit more protected as they tend to be on the regional taboo list more frequently due to presence of Muslims.

If we don't kill some deer by hunting there will be more of them to eat our corn crops and get hit by automobiles on the roads and highways.\nWoops, you say against.  Well, nobody wants to kill Bambi.  The best agruemnt against is that deer are creatures with a right to live.  Killing one requires a better excuse than wanting a trophy to hang on the wall.  If you kill a deer, you will need to process the meat or pay to have that job done (and it is messy unless you have the skill and tools of a professional butcher).  If you want to get the full benefit of the hunt, you will also have to tan the hide or pay to have that done.

It is called the foot and mouth diseae which attackes cattle like pigs, cows, goats and so on. Looks like livestocks, including chickens that spread the bird flu are not to be taken for the time being. If you worry, take fish only or opt to be a vegeterian instead.Meantime, protection yourself by taking lots fruits becos they contain Vit.C and eating raw garlic or pills form of it.

Anatidaephobia is the fear that a duck is watching you. I'm serious. This phobia is a fake one, made up by cartoonist Gary Larson (author of the comic strips The Far Side).

Here's one that hasn't been mentioned: lead pellets from shotguns.  After they fall to the ground, the pellets are often eaten by birds, which in turn get eaten by predators, etc.  In the U.S, federal regulations require the use of non-lead shot when hunting migratory waterfowl.  Stainless steel shot is often used for the purpose.  Bismuth shot is used too.  It has very good performance, but is expensive.  The hunting of non-migratory birds and small game isn't subject to the federal regulations, and  lead shot is normally used on them.
