THE TRUE SPORTSMAN'S GAZETTE
The Era (London, England),
Sunday, January 27, 1839; Issue 18.
over a healthy part of the New Forest, I observed a sheep dog
put up a hare, which was immediately pursued by a lurcher,
attendant upon a farmer who was close at hand. Puss found that
she had very little superiority in speed over her pursuer, and as
there was no cover which she could resort to for shelter, she in
running over a part of the plain, where there were some rab-
bit burrows, retreated into one of their holes. A turf cutter
who was engaged near the spot was employed to dig her out.
of her temporary asylum. This act was not, however, so
speedily effected, for the burrows were so intersected, that it
was a long time ere he discovered the one in which she lay
concealed. On being at length captured, she was let go again
before the dogs, but as is almost invariably the case in such
instances, she was picked up by the hunters before she had run
fifty yards.

San Bushmen of the Kalahari
Ok, maybe most of you have already heard of this people. But I would like to draw your attention again to them. In my opinion they are living a way life that most of us humans were probably supposed to live. That is their diet, hunting, relationship with other animals etc.
Interestingly, the Bushmen's ancestors predate the genetic changes of the rest of the human population — making them a "Genetic Adam". I wonder what the Nazi's would have thought about that? (master race)

Here is an amazing persistance hunt of a Kudu

Children Slug Hunting
I would like to share with you this interesting blog entry. These parents are very much interested in their children's education. I dont know much about them, but there is plenty to read on their blog.
What took my interest was that they choose to take their young kids slug hunting. What a great way to introduce them to the real world!
How many children are so brave as to handle, kill, slaughter and eat slugs?
These kids are amazing!
