Holly Heyser works in waterfowl conservation by day -- but she might be best known in the sporting world for her words (To the Bone) and her amazing photos (Hunt Gather Cook). This week we talk about applying the Golden Rule to hunting -- how can we kill the way we'd like to be killed? We talk about hunting with dogs, the merits of the ambush versus the chase, and judging our hunts by the humaneness of a kill. 2:30 Nilgai in the freezer... you need SPACE 7:00 Matching your workout regimen to match your desired quarry 8:00 Hunting over golden retrievers 11:00  California Waterfowl 12:00  Hunter Angler Gardener Cook blog by Hank Shaw, where Holly is the chief photographer 13:00  To the Bone: a new blog launched by Holly and Hank 14:00 And the  cookbooks! Everyone... Holly is one half of a wild-game empire 15:00 Hunt Gather Cook  Facebook group 16:00 Holly's  NorCal Cazadora blog (and word-sparring with Philip Loughlin of the  Hog Blog) 19:00 "Killing How I'd Like to Be Killed" from To the Bone 20:00 A bear hunt with houndsmen; Putting yourself in the mindset of your prey... do you prefer the ambush? Or the chase, with a possible chance of escape? 24:00  CWD Chronicles... find it in your Podcasts app 28:00 "Killing isn't fair." 29:00 "Hunting Philosophy for Everyone" by Nathan Kowalsky 31:00 A not-so-perfect dispatch of a hen teal; And still choosing those imperfect kills over conventionally raised livestock 34:00 Hunting birds over dogs vs. hunting large mammals over dogs 37:00 "I don't judge myself, ethically speaking, by how challenging a shot is. I like to judge myself by the humaneness of my kill." 44:00  Measuring cortisol (stress) levels in deer under different kinds of duress 49:00 Two mergansers entwined in death 54:00 Do we feel differently about killing hogs than deer? What about fish? (Is it the eyelashes? An animal's ecological role?) 55:00  "Woman the Hunter" by Mary Zeiss Stange 1:00 Feelings/emotions do have a role in harvest Holly will be traveling with Hank to  Pheasant Fest, the big annual gathering of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, in Omaha March 11-13. If any listeners wanted to connect with her there, pick a bone, whatever, she'd love to say hi. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ethical Hunting (and Hounds) with Holly Heyser

I got to meet Holly down at the films of the Feathered Film Festival and man is she a hoot! I wish we would have had the chance to do this podcast in person. We chat about all things hunting in California as well as lots of wild game cooking.
