What animals can you hunt during the hot summer months when many seasons are closed? Ken Marr and friends tackle this question through a lively summer trivia competition that reveals fascinating facts about year-round hunting opportunities.

Discover which state has the largest alligator population (hint: it's not Florida!), and learn about hook-and-line methods for catching these prehistoric predators. The team dives into wild hog populations across America, with Texas leading the pack at a staggering 3 million feral pigs. You might be surprised to learn that those "gophers" plaguing farmland are actually Richardson ground squirrels!

The conversation reveals little-known facts about coyote distribution across North America, exotic hunting opportunities like Argentina's legendary dove fields, and explores why the Giant Forest Hog—not the Russian boar—is the world's largest wild pig species. From the serious (wildlife management challenges) to the humorous (learning that a group of ravens is called a "conspiracy"), this episode provides both entertainment and education for hunters looking to extend their season.

Whether you're interested in predator control, pest management, or simply expanding your hunting knowledge beyond traditional big game seasons, this trivia-packed episode delivers insights that will change how you think about summer hunting opportunities. The competitive spirit between "Team Spectacles" and "Team Testicles" adds plenty of laughs along the way as they fight for podcast koozies and bragging rights.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
Or Bubble Gum.
That's a good one.
Oh yeah, bubble Gum, yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Yeah, I don't know what it is, but that blue dye
just gets me, I know.
But bubble gum.
It's weird because you'reeating it and you're like, oh, I
got some bubble gum.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Then you swallow it and afterwards your stomach just
feels kind of off becauseyou've been swallowing bubble
gum.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Yeah, it's gum but it's not really gum.
That's weird.
All right, Ryan.

Speaker 4 (03:15):
Ryan Wasilius, dairy farmer, and favorite ice cream
is peanut butter fudge.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Crunch.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
He doesn't like the crunch.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
You don't have to crunch it.
You can kind of just melt itwith your tongue.
I mean there's a little bit ofa crunch to it.
It's the chocolate in there andstuff that I like.

Speaker 3 (03:34):
I like the peanut butter.
Yeah, me too.
My name is Caleb Jones, I'm acarpenter and I'm a Heavenly
Hash kind of guy.
Oh, okay, I haven't heard thatflavor in a while this is
feeling summery, my name'sDalton Patterson and I work in
dairy processing.

Speaker 5 (03:50):
I guess I make skim milk powder and such and I bag
it as well.

Speaker 1 (03:55):
Firefighting.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
Firefighting.
Yeah, A little bit of that onthe side.
My favorite ice cream isdefinitely Dinosaur Bones.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
Oh my God, it's good.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Has anyone heard of that.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Yes, when you were four, you ate it.

Speaker 5 (04:07):
When you were four.
You definitely ate it.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
I know I said bubble gum, but the dinosaur bones.

Speaker 5 (04:14):
Chicken fingers and flies Me and my three-year-old
share it.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
What's it taste?
Like Dinosaur bones, baby it'sjust a whole lot of goodness.

Speaker 5 (04:24):
What color is it Like ?
Green and blue.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
It's really good Like neon green, a bit of natural,
anything in there.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:30):
Are you looking it up ?

Speaker 2 (04:31):
right now, trevor, I'm looking it up.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
Sorry, jacob's name is also Trevor.
You're looking at theingredients, turns out there's
actually not even any milk in itproducts.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Probably not Dinosaur products.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
What a rip off, yeah, so.

Speaker 5 (04:46):
I feel like I get judged pretty hard on that one
yeah.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
There's a lot we're not saying actually.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Go ahead.

Speaker 1 (04:54):
I am curious what this is.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
I don't even know what I want to say.
Green colored ice cream with acookies and cream flavor Sounds
like something from Dr Seuss.
The ice cream is thrilled witha blue marshmallow ribbon and
chocolate chunks.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I haven't heard of that and I'm pretty sure it's
not even ice cream.

Speaker 5 (05:08):
It looks like Caleb's shirt without the pink
flamingos.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
It's food coloring that's frozen.
Okay, well, I haven't heard ofthat one and heavily hashed one
way to bring that one back.
It's different, but this is ahunting podcast.
We're going to get into somehunting stuff.
First things first.
In New Brunswick, canada, herewe just had the results come out
, for you have to put in foryour moose tag.
It's a lottery system.
You can win it.
Dalton, you won your tag.

(05:33):
Yeah, first moose tag, not thefirst time applying, but you
skipped a couple years.

Speaker 5 (05:38):
Yeah, exactly so I'd applied, probably stopped
applying two or three years agoand anyway, started applying
again and applied like this yearwas the first time and got it.
Yeah, that'll be, exciting Alot

Speaker 2 (05:51):
of work, a lot of fun .
Yep, certainly I have acuriosity why did you stop
applying?

Speaker 5 (05:57):
Because I didn't really have time to do it right.

Speaker 2 (06:01):
So I was like, well, I'm just really not going to
bother, because I know like thatputs you back down to the start
on the ballots, exactly.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
yeah, that's what I needed.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
I guess that's yeah yeah, I told lane today.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
I said, uh, I said you know, all you need is just
to not have a plan and I guessit'll all come together for you,
because this was my first yearwith additional ballots.
Yeah, this will be my sixthyear applying without one,
really, yeah, but so, but thisyear, kind of like, I wasn't.
I didn't really.
I'm working away right now andstuff, so I didn't really.
If I got it, it would be a lotof work.
So I applied for Al.
That's why I applied for AlbertCounty.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
Cause if after 18 years you automatically get it
Uh.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
I think, yeah, people go like 20 years, 25 years
without getting it.

Speaker 1 (06:47):
I thought they changed it so that within 18 to
20 you will get it basically.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
Yeah, maybe it's a long time, though I think the
odds are super in your favor,but again, it's still a draw.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
Depends what zone you're applying for.
That's a big thing too.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
Yeah, the wildlife management zones?
Yeah, because some areas have alot more tags than others.
Yeah, and then, dalton, you tooalso picked up what, today,
your balls out of your wife'spurse Just kidding.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
What did you get?
I picked up a LabradorRetriever today at Choco Lab.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
And it's fully trained.

Speaker 5 (07:22):
It's fully trained For duck season.

Speaker 1 (07:24):
That's exciting for duck season, yeah good, that'll
be a lot of fun yeah, yeah,super excited.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
She's a four year old chocolate lab chocolate lab
willow pretty excited how wasshe coming home?
Excellent, can't complain atall.
We had her fully sedated made apeep yeah, yeah, that's right,
we strapped her to the roof itwas fun, strapped her to the
roof.
Yeah, came from where.
Where did you get her?
Nova Scotia, okay, kentville.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
What kennel Do you want to give a shout out?
Are you embarrassed?
Yeah Well, no, not at all.
We'll see how this duck seasongoes, I guess.

Speaker 5 (07:53):
Not at all.
I'm just going to get hiskennel name pulled up here.
I know his personal name, butSouth Rock Kennels is yeah so
he's a big hunter and met him,talked to him on the phone, some
, and anyway, real nice guy.
So anyway, looking forward toit.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
And the guy feeds.
Inuksuk dog food he's feeding.
What blend?

Speaker 5 (08:14):
The Marine 16.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
Okay, yeah, so that's what he's been feeding her and
that's what she's doing the bestoff of.

Speaker 5 (08:21):
Well, I haven't seen her on anything else, but she
looks good.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Because Inuksuk will keep your dog going.
There's a reason why, uh, a lotof hunters and stuff used for
working dogs Cause it works welland it keeps your dog going,
cause you're the old Roy stuffor whatever you get at Walmart
or something.

Speaker 5 (08:38):
It's not going to cut it Bunch of junk, yeah Well it.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
It's not junk.
Well, yeah, all right, it'sjunk, it's kind of junky, but
then Oak Shilk yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
And Marine 16 is a fish-based food.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm assuming yes it is yeah.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
What gave you that?

Speaker 5 (08:52):
idea, I believe there's a non-fish-based 26-16
too right, I feed the 26-16.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yeah, that's non-fish-based.
I think that's what we feed.

Speaker 5 (09:02):
I'm pretty sure, that's what we got.
Yeah, that's what we've been.
He's been feeding all of hisdogs just blanket.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Yeah, you just got to watch the labs where they're
prone to rapid weight gainquickly, which is one of the
breed characteristics.
Yeah, but that'll be fun.
That'll be very handy insteadof searching around for ducks,
because I can remember thispicture in here of a great duck
hunting night with Ryan, and youwere there and Dalton, you
spent some considerable timelooking for some ducks.

Speaker 5 (09:29):
I did.
Yeah, we spent some timeroaming through tall grass and
corn stubble.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
We found them all, though.

Speaker 5 (09:37):
No, it wasn't even stubble, it was standing.
Oh yeah, it was standing.
We found all the ducks, though.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
Yeah, we did, but it it took a little time.
So the dog's definitely goingto, it's going to be very super
pumped, super pumped.
A lot of fun.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Just a good, good, I guess, kind of hobby for me.
I guess I've got a lot to learnwith passion so well yeah, I
mean teach you more than youknow.
Yeah exactly, and then the nextone hopefully be a pop, and be
able to work with them Good, Ican't wait to see.

Speaker 1 (10:07):
It'll be fun.
You owe me a couple dog hunts.

Speaker 5 (10:09):
I do, yeah, like a lot.
I'll be hunting with coon hensand rabbits.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
No, it'll be fun.
Two seasons probably.
Any hunting that involves dogsworking with it.
Just this is the summer trivia,and Dalton already started off
before asking dumb questions,apparently.
What's the summer trivia?

Speaker 5 (10:26):
Does anybody else have anything going on in their
lives before?

Speaker 1 (10:29):
we get any further.
It's not a winter trivia.
Well, I just know you.
Cale, did you get your mooselicense?

Speaker 3 (10:33):
That would be a hard no.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
But your brother-in-law did, yeah, he got
it, so we're going.

Speaker 3 (10:37):
I think.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Okay, way to steer my own podcast, dalton.
No, that's good, that's nice.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
Did you get yours Ryan.
Nope, you get yours Jacob.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
No.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
What zone?

Speaker 4 (10:47):
did you apply for.

Speaker 2 (10:48):
What's that?
What zone did you apply?

Speaker 4 (10:50):
for I didn't apply.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
I didn't apply either , because I'm going to Maine
again.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
We're too busy that time of year.

Speaker 1 (10:56):
I'm tagging along bearhound hunting in September
and I'm going to Alberta goingalong on a bighorn sheep hunt in
September.

Speaker 2 (11:03):
Maybe I'm just too hung up on the ballot idea then.
Why, I don't know.
I just feel like that's why Iapply, because Albert County has
the fewest.
Dalton got lucky.
He got lucky.
Well, yeah, for sure he cheated, he's a lucky guy.
So Albert County has the fewestamount of tags given out.
That's why I apply for it inyears that I kind of am not
prepared for it.
Then if I ever wanted to jumpto one of those two or three or

(11:26):
six zones and apply, then thenI've got 24 ballots ready to go
into the draw.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Right.

Speaker 2 (11:33):
Maybe I'm thinking of it the wrong way, though.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Strategy.
I like it.
Not many people do that withthat Big thinker yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
Yeah, it's a good strategy.
I think it's like that instates.
They call it like the lottery.

Speaker 3 (11:45):
Yeah, same idea.
Oh it is, you win the lottery,Dalton why don't you tell us
about your strategy?
He knows somebody in GameMob.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
You can't win if you don't play the GameBoys, oh,
okay, yeah, all right, thatworks, it works for you.
And cheating no Turns out, youcan hack into the DNR system.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
He's got the right last name, that's all.

Speaker 1 (12:02):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, there's nothing else.
I mean, there's stuff new.
Today is the first month oftraining season for coon hunting
and the dogs did tree one thismorning, so that's good.
Good morning, coon, because Iwas too tired to take them out
last night.
Work's always getting in theway.
Yeah, so this is summer triviaedition.

(12:24):
It's fairly different in theway.
Yeah, so this is summer triviaedition.
It's fairly different from thewinter one in the fact that the
questions maybe I haven't donetrivia in a bit the questions
might be a little rusty on it,but they are geared towards
year-round hunting animals oranimals that you're hunting in
summer weather Hot weather, ifyou will, how most summers are.
So who are the teams?

(12:47):
So you guys already know whatyou're playing for the Hunts on
Outfitting Podcast Koozies, whoare the teams and what are their
names?
All right, so I came up withthe names myself.
So, team Spectacles We've gotDalton, because you have
sunglasses on your head, andCaleb.

Speaker 3 (13:02):
Okay, because I have eyes.
You nailed it.
That's why you're on TeamSpectacles.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
And Team Testicles is Ryan and Jacob.
Okay, just call me Liver King.
I was going to call yousomething else.
No, but yeah, all right.
So Team Spectacles versus TeamTesticles.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
I'm Liver King.
I'm Leverking.
This is Chef.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Lionel, that's exactly what I was thinking.
So I'm going to ask thequestions.
All right, so I'm going to askthe questions.
The other team, I will give itto them If the first team asked
does not give it an answer to mein the time that I feel they
should give it to me.
Okay, since I'm running it, Ijust kind of make these rules up
in my head.
The questions, the answers, areall from Google.

(13:49):
All right, so someone'slistening to this like that's
not true, I got.
I got it from Google.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
So take it up with them.
Um, you get a point foranswering right, you do not lose
a point for answering wrong.
And uh, not lose a point foranswering wrong, and it's going
to be good.
You guys might learn something.
Okay, I learned something, allright.
So Team Spectacles, dalton andCaleb.
First question what state hasthe largest alligator population

(14:16):
?
Is it A Texas, b Florida, cLouisiana or D South Carolina?
What state has the largestalligator population?

Speaker 3 (14:30):
I'm kind of thinking one of the Carolinas and South
is on there, but that's just.
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
I feel like it's got to be Florida.

Speaker 1 (14:40):
I like.
Why are you thinking that Idon't know?

Speaker 5 (14:43):
Why am I thinking that?
Well, florida, yeah, we can gowith Florida.
Okay, florida, I think, is justnotoriously overpopulated with
everything.
And gators are one of them, Ido believe.
I hope I'm right on that, butwe're going to go with B.
Final answer.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
B.
Final answer Florida Boys.
We're not off to a good start.
You're going with the wrong oneand I get why you chose Florida
because everyone thinksAlligator is Florida, right.
I thought that you guysobviously thought that because
that's the answer that you gaveme and you're close.
Okay, but that's not right.
So we're going to teamtesticles.
What state has the largestalligator population?

(15:21):
A Texas.
Largest alligator population?
A Texas B, you know it's notFlorida.
C Louisiana or D South Carolina, and go ahead, discuss with
your partner into your micPersonally.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
I think it's Louisiana I also think it's
Louisiana.

Speaker 1 (15:35):
And why do you guys think that?
From swamp people, swamp people.

Speaker 2 (15:37):
Jacob get the gun, Shoot him.

Speaker 3 (15:45):
Shoot him, Jacob.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
I like how they're speaking English but there's
subtitles for the whole thing.
It's like Coldwater Cowboys inNewfoundland, the
Newfoundlanders in Newfoundlandthere, because that's where
Newfoundlanders live.
Yeah, I know what do you think,ryan, louisiana, oh yeah,
louisiana, louisiana, boys, youguys are getting a mark on the
board for having the wronganswer.
No, you're right, you're rightso.
So Florida was a good guess,obviously.
That's why I put it on here.
It wasn't a bad one?
No, because they are known foralligators.

(16:07):
So Louisiana has the most Over2 million alligators.
Florida is the second Withabout 1.3 million, followed by
Texas with 4 to 500,000.
And did you know thatalligators Typically have about
80 teeth In their mouth at anygiven time?
Imagine having that Dentistbill right.

Speaker 2 (16:28):
Is there any gators in South Carolina, did you?

Speaker 3 (16:30):
know that alligators typically have about 80 teeth in
their mouth at any given time.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Imagine having that Dentist Bill right.
Is there any gators in South?

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Carolina.
Yep, yes, yeah, there is.
Do you have a question on whatstate gators are in?
No, I don't.

Speaker 4 (16:37):
But do you want to talk to me about it?
I think you can hunt them innine states.

Speaker 1 (16:39):
A random fact for a dairy farmer from New Brunswick,
but I for a dairy farmer fromNew Brunswick, but I like it.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
Yeah, north Carolina, south Carolina, georgia,
florida, alabama, mississippi,arkansas and Texas, and you can
get permits in Oklahoma for them.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Did you say Tennessee ?
I thought Tennessee had.
I thought there was some in theSouthern part for sure.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
Okay, you can't hunt them there.

Speaker 4 (16:59):
That was well rehearsed, yeah, well rehearsed
I heard that on a podcast theother day what one wasn't this
one.
No, I don't think it was thisone, uh, okay, no it's good to
go with the question.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
Yeah, what, what podcast?

Speaker 4 (17:11):
I can't even remember what I was listening to now.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
It just kind of popped up, was it a hunting one?

Speaker 4 (17:15):
I would hope you can't remember who you're
listening to, but you rememberedthat yeah, yeah, because it
stuck out, because I was like ohken's doing, uh, hunting trivia
soon.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
On gators that you did not know about.
No, okay, that's pretty good,that's interesting.
But yeah, florida, I know Ialways thought Florida had the
most.
But Louisiana, yeah, I got apile of gators, all right.
So, team testicles, you guysgot that one right.
But you guys are up for thenext question what is the most
common method of huntingalligators?

(17:43):
Is it A hook and line, b bowand arrow, c firearm or D gig
and snare Go?

Speaker 2 (17:54):
ahead discuss it.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
Okay, it is, and I'm sorry I gave that one to you.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Because I think swamp people they're always doing
hook and line in that.
That's kind of what I wasthinking, whether it's on a
branch or a jug line orsomething, but then I also see a
lot of people hooking them withfishing rods, but I didn't hear
that as an option.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
It's like a treble hook thing.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
You throw out and snag them.
And what was the rifle?
I don't think it's fire.
It's definitely not bow andarrow.
What do?
Definitely not bow and arrow,definitely not bow and arrow.
And if they catch it on hookand line and then shoot it at
the boat, is that with a fire?
Harvest it with the fire.

Speaker 5 (18:27):
No, that was harvesting with the hook and
line.

Speaker 2 (18:29):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know, ryan, I think hook and
line I'm set on that too,because that's what I've seen.

Speaker 1 (18:38):
I think we'll go hook and line.
You guys going with hook andline is the most common method.
That's where you guys get theanswer right.
Uh, it involves securing asturdy hook and line to a tree
or pole in the ground.
The hook is baited, the gatorgrabs it and bam caught.
So yeah, just like you see offswamp people, uh, but in South
Carolina an alligator must becaptured before killed with

(19:00):
either a gun or a bang stick.
You guys ever seen those bangsticks?

Speaker 3 (19:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
They just what did it ?

Speaker 2 (19:04):
just touch it to the minute it goes off right yeah,
it's the primer, and just boomright there.

Speaker 4 (19:10):
Yeah, it's the same thing, yeah.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
But does anyone know what caliber of gun it's?
It's a no it is kind of acaliber sort of.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
I think you can get them in different ones.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
Maybe.
I figured it would be a genericone Maybe, I don't know.
It would be kind of cool Gatorhunting.
We talked about this last night, jacob, it tastes good.
When you describe it tosomebody, it's weird.
I've had it a few times and Iwould describe it as swampy
chicken, which sounds terrible.
But it's really good.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
It's a white meat.
I've never had gator, but I'vehad frog's legs lots and it's
like the slightest bit.
Fishy chicken is what it's like.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
Fishy chicken it's like the slightest bit.

Speaker 2 (19:52):
I mean, you can eat anything deep fried, but the
slightest bit.
It's like this isn't afeathered chicken, but it's some
sort of earth chicken.

Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, I've never tried frog's legs, I would.
Would you try them Matt?

Speaker 2 (20:08):
No, first time I tried them was at a party in
high school that we didn't bringany food to.
So about 2 am we were spearingthem and you can cut the.
They cut off real easy.
At the back I learned how toclean a frog that night too.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Did you get the idea off swamp people?

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Fireball gave me that idea.
Okay, you can cut them offright in front of the back legs
and their skin peels real easy,like a rabbit almost.
You just peel it right off.
And we just cooked them overthe fire like that.
It was good, yeah, but I alsohave them deep fried or in cream
sauce.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Would they look like a chicken wing?

Speaker 2 (20:44):
That first little like their thigh I guess looks a
lot like a flat, like the twobone chicken wing.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
Well, I was surprised that time you cooked up
squirrel for us.
That tasted like chicken wings.
That really did yeah.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
I can't wait to get a bigger one, a gray one as
opposed to the thigh there'ssome back here and the back here
.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
They're so freaking fat they bow the power lines and
they run across it.
You see the, the trees, justlike Shake yeah.

Speaker 5 (21:06):
I've got them on my lawn too.

Speaker 1 (21:07):
They're huge, looks like raccoons.

Speaker 5 (21:09):
I would love to eat, to try a squirrel.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
The one that, jake.
They eat all good stuff.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
They did red squirrel , it's like they're all eating
Nuts and seeds, like the onesKind of like Caleb, no.
But uh, the insulation andgarbage can lids.
But the ones out in the woods,man, you gotta think, all these
nuts and seeds, a few bugsprobably.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
We've got acorns here , so I think they're probably
gorging on acorns.

Speaker 3 (21:30):
The insulation ones, I think you were the one that
likes nuts in your ice cream,right, ken?
Ken likes crunch, oh so.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Ryan, you're just there for the peanut butter,
right yeah?

Speaker 5 (21:41):
That's what they all say.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
Just here?
That's what they all say.
I'm just here for the coldtaste.
So Good sidebar Team Spectacles.
What state has the most gameanimals To hunt year round?
Is it A Montana, b Texas, c NewMexico or D Nebraska?

Speaker 3 (22:07):
Are these native species?

Speaker 1 (22:09):
Yeah, okay, so I knew you were going to ask that.
Yeah, no, that's a goodquestion.
So, yes, it is.
It's not exotics.
We're not counting exotics.
Oh, we're not.
No, we're not counting exotics.
That's a good question.
Yeah, so what state has themost game animals to hunt you
around?

Speaker 5 (22:23):
And this is off Google most game animals to hunt
you around.
And this is off Google.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Okay, give me the list again, all I heard was
Texas, but now I'm not sure Iknow, because you guys are
thinking the exotics, right?
Because Texas, basically youcan do an African safari in
Texas.
You can do whatever the hellyou want.
I think I know it is cool.
I'd like to go there A Montana,b Texas, c New Mexico or E
Nebraska.

Speaker 5 (22:44):
I'm half thinking New Mexico, Because I think he's
trying to trick us and I thinkthat was where he was trying to
trick us.

Speaker 3 (22:52):
What do you think?

Speaker 5 (22:52):
Yeah, I think he's hoping we're going to pick.

Speaker 3 (22:55):
Montana no, he was hoping.

Speaker 5 (22:59):
Montana would be a good one too though, because
it's on the border.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
There's a lot in Montana.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Year-round.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
I agree with New Mexico.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
Okay.
So I was thinking yeah, yourschool thought is, hunting
animals year-round wouldnormally be a warmer climate.
You're thinking right, so youguys are going with New Mexico.
Okay, wrong it is.
It's good, I like your guys'school thought, I do so.
Team testicles.
What state has the most gameanimals to hunt year-round?

(23:29):
Texas, montana, texas, newMexico or Nebraska?

Speaker 2 (23:34):
So we know it's not New Mexico.

Speaker 4 (23:37):
And I think and it's year-round, year-round hunting
opportunities- but we're notcounting yeah, year-round.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
We're not counting exotics.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
We're not counting exotics.
So I think to texas, I think ithas to be texas but what in in
like?

Speaker 4 (23:48):
if you take montana, you're very limited to what you
can hunt in the summertime.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
I don't think I don't think it's montana, because
they're all going to be falltype hunts, but for some reason
nebraska.
For some reason, I think, guysdon't guys hunt pronghorn in
like late summer.
It seems like you can get.

Speaker 4 (24:05):
There's a lot of small varmint type animals that
you can hunt Texas year round.

Speaker 2 (24:09):
In Nebraska too, they got the gophers or the
groundhogs and the prairie dogs.
I don't know, but Texas too,because I think, like Nebraska,
is going to have alligators.
It's not going to have anythingthat's going to live by the
ocean like that.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
Nebraska does not have alligators.
No, I didn't think, so I'mgoing to give you that one.

Speaker 3 (24:27):
They might have prairie dogs with no gators.
I don't know.
Ryan, Texas, I think.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
I'm confident on.

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Texas.
We'll go Texas then.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Okay, you guys are going with 3-1.
You guys, I know you Seriously.

Speaker 5 (24:40):
I thought you were trying to trigger us to Texas.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
I know because of the exotic thing, because I know,
because of the exotic thing,right, because I said there's no
exotic.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Well, honestly, if it was, up to me too, like New
Mexico would have been my pick.

Speaker 1 (24:48):
Yeah, it's, because it's hot.

Speaker 5 (24:49):
Hot Because I thought pronghorn, that's pronghorns
and shit yeah, but what's theother one they got?

Speaker 2 (24:55):
They hunt on the White Sands Missile Range down
there.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
I don't know, what you mean.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
It's not Audad though .

Speaker 2 (25:03):
It was something else , neil Guy, neil Guy yeah,
that's it, neil Guy.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
That's an exotic.
That's considered an exotic.
It's Neil Guy.
Antelope, they're big.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Yeah, I'm going to do a podcast sometime with
somebody talking about that.
So, neil, guy, are on thisWhite Sands Missile Range in New
Mexico, which is like an oldit's military base.
They're an they're an antelope.
They're an antelope, butthey're like pheasants.
Here they become naturalizedkind of out in the so there's a
wild population and they're nota bird and they're not a bird.

Speaker 5 (25:32):
Yeah, but they're kind of like a pheasant yeah,
kind of like a pheasant.

Speaker 2 (25:35):
How pheasants are from china, right, but they've
kind of been introduced here.
You don't have a.
You didn't know that ringneckpheasant is a asian bird.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
I know what we should get rid of.

Speaker 2 (25:45):
They're so good they're listening to us, but the
nail guy there's like a drawsame as our moose draw for this
White Sands Missile Range to geta tag and it's kind of crazy.
There's certain areas you can'tgo because there's live
unexploded ordnance.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
I think you can only get like you can't go or you
shouldn't go.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
You can't go, imagine watching one of them in your
scope, getting ready to squeezethe trigger and all of a sudden
they just blow up.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
It bends down to pick up this blade of grass, because
I've watched a little bit ofstuff on it and you've got to do
a pre-job brief with themilitary every morning.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
I'd like to go on a Neil Guy hunt.

Speaker 5 (26:18):
I've heard some podcasts, but I haven't seen
some pictures.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
I think it would be gnarly rough.
It's so hot and there's allthese thorns and stuff.

Speaker 2 (26:25):
Yeah, same as the Ibex is another one super
similar to that.
That's like one of the mostcoveted tags in America.
To pull a New Mexico Ibex tag.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Are they there?
I thought they were up more inmountains than other areas.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
I thought New Mexico and those kind of arroyos or
whatever out in the desert.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Look it up quick, I'm going to look it up.

Speaker 4 (26:44):
Do we get the next question?
We do.
You guys do you guys just get?

Speaker 5 (26:46):
them all.
I think, what do?

Speaker 1 (26:48):
you guys just win and just screw this game.
You guys still have a chance.
Don't You've been on thewinning side of this, caleb?
Have you?
You've won?
Weren't you partners with Scott?

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Yep Scott won.
I was with him.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Oh, okay, that's surprising.
You got no service, jacob.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
I got one bar.
It's working.

Speaker 1 (27:06):
Hey, tell a quick story, I'll look it up.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
But going back to hunting opportunities year-round
, I want to say that Ibex huntis like late August, early.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
September.
So Ibex are wild goats found inmountainous regions of Europe,
asia and northeastern Africa.
Oh, it's like Kyrgyzstan, I'mnot saying they're not in Texas,
but this is.

Speaker 2 (27:25):
That's where they're from, but it's the same as the
pheasants.
They brought some famous Anilguy.
Same as Anil guy.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
Oh, yeah, okay, yeah, you're right.
The ibex have been introducedto ranches in the United States,
canada and Argentina.

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Okay, yeah, yeah, definitely an exotic, but land
down in the states I think it'snew mexico.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
They're on public land that'd be kind of neat.
You seen the horns on me.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
I just it was fascinating to watch the
documentary on it, but it was.
I want to say there's apopulation there, but they only
give it, I want to say, likeless than 10 tags a year oh
really yeah, that's why it'ssuper coveted but texas does a
lot of cool stuff like.
That's almost like the mb moosedraw yeah, yeah super coveted,
super coveted, yeah we gottathink too how much money the
province makes off the MooseDraw.

Speaker 3 (28:06):
Because it costs you what to apply $9.50?
.

Speaker 4 (28:09):
Basically $10 to apply.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
And I don't know about this year or last year,
but the year before there was, Ithink, 64,000-ish people apply,
so that's $650,000 or $640,000.
And then there's, on average,what 4,500-ish tags given out
for the whole province.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
Yeah, give or take.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
Give or take and they're $100 to buy your tag, or
$90?
.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
Plus your second gun.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
Let's say $100 for even numbers.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Plus $80 for your second gun.
Okay, yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
So then you give up 4,500 tags at $100.
There's $450,000, right, it's amillion-dollar industry for the
province of New Brunswick, justoff the licensing and the
application yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Plus, you're paying butchers and stuff which is good
to get back to them yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
It injects into the economy, because you got to
think some of those zones upnorth too, Guide services.
Guide services, hotels, gasstations, gas stations
restaurants, gas stations,restaurants, everything, grocery
stores.

Speaker 1 (29:06):
Yeah, yeah, oh, it's good for them.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
If you're in zone 3 it's like RV service centers.

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Really.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Oh, it's like Camper van cities up there, that's cool
Year round.
No, just during move season.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
So this one I got from Google.
So Texas Non-game animalsinclude, but are not limited to
the following Armadillos,bobcats, coyotes, but are not
limited to the followingArmadillos, bobcats, coyotes,
flying squirrels, frogs, groundsquirrels, mountain lions,
porcupines, prairie dogs,rabbits and turtles.
There's no season on theseanimals.

(29:38):
That's what it said, yeah.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
Oh, they're year-round.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
That's what it said, yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
Okay, so a 360.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
The most game animals year-round was the question.
You guys got it said Okay, so a360.
The most game animalsyear-round was the question.
Oh, you guys got it right.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
Now I understand it better.

Speaker 4 (29:54):
So if you were going to say you guys should be upset,
what?

Speaker 3 (29:57):
animals.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
You can hunt groundhog crows and coyotes
year-round in New Brunswick.
Cormans are only there in theopen waterfowl season.
Right Everything elsehasunswick and New Brunswick
Corvettes are only there in theopen waterfowl season.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
Right, everything else has a season.

Speaker 3 (30:08):
So we get nothing on Texas, so in Texas that's what
he was saying there's no seasonon these.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Hey, you guys got it right.
Only you guys are owing aboutOkay, so team Spectacles.
Actually, I think it to youguys this one's a little tougher
.
So, while often referred to asgophers, the correct name is
actually what.

(30:32):
The acronym is RGS.
So these are often referred toas gophers, but the correct name
is what.
You're asking for thescientific name, I'm asking for
the acronym of what RGS standsfor.
Do you have the scientific name?
Because I will give you fourpoints for it.

Speaker 3 (30:53):
I can Google it.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Nah, you cannot.

Speaker 2 (30:56):
Groundhoggius Superficius.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
So RGS, rgs, and I'm going to say it and you guys
will be like oh yeah, I've heardthat before.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
Romeo Golf.
Oh, you're not giving us eight.
Oh, there's no multiple choice.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
There's no multiple choice, so this is the name.
So people call them gophers,but apparently this is the
actual name.
Oh, I'm lost on this one.
They wreak havoc on a lot ofyeah well, yeah cattle.
Their range is in the westernprovinces across Canada and the
USA.

Speaker 4 (31:26):
Gee to me, is it like the prairie dogs, or whatever?

Speaker 2 (31:31):
Yeah, prairie.
And the G to me sounds likeGroundhog with a G.
That's the only.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
So that R.
Okay, I'll give you a hint theR is a person's name.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
Reg.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Not far off.
I think Roosevelt is one, justRoosevelt Reg, not far off.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
I think Roosevelt is one, just Roosevelt L.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
Okay, no, but it was.

Speaker 4 (31:54):
What was the three letters again?

Speaker 1 (31:56):
R G.

Speaker 4 (31:58):
S?
I'm guessing G stands forground and R?

Speaker 1 (32:02):
you said what I'll give you that G does stand for
ground.
Yep, wow, we're doing good.
We're doing good, are you just?

Speaker 5 (32:06):
giving it to him.
Oh yeah, oh yeah.
What's the S stand for?
Get rid of delete.

Speaker 2 (32:11):
Just let him slide.
What did you say for the nameRyan?
You said Reginald.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
I said Reg, reg, no, I'll give you guys that Everyone
calls these gophers.
I thought they were gophers,but apparently this is the
actual name for them Reginald'sground squirrel.

Speaker 2 (32:29):
Final answer.

Speaker 4 (32:31):
No, I think we can do better.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
I wish they were called.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
Reginalds, what's the possible for the S Ground
something?

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Because I think, yeah , grounds oh.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
No, no whispering.
No secrets on here.
What do you think?
Come on, show your work outloud.
No whispering, no secrets onhere.
What do?

Speaker 4 (32:50):
you think Show your work out loud.
Ground sloth Like.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
Ryan's ground sluts.
That's how Ryan pays for thefirm.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
Sloth Sloths.
You guys can pass.
No, you might as well take astab at it.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Okay, it's not Reginalds.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
But you said Reg, and that was Reggie.

Speaker 4 (33:13):
No.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
We're just going to keep saying things off of our
heads, roger, no, randy.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Robert, no Romeo, all right, you guys got to come up
with something.
So the G does stand for ground.
Ground R-G-S.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
Royal Royal.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
Royal ground squirrel .
You said it was a name which isthrowing me right off.

Speaker 1 (33:34):
It's a name.
Maybe you can think of it as alast name.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
What about Regina?

Speaker 2 (33:40):
Rupert, rupert's ground squirrel.

Speaker 1 (33:44):
Final answer I'm gonna let team Spectacles take
it over.
I don't know.
You guys did some good work.

Speaker 4 (33:53):
They can keep going at it if they want.

Speaker 2 (33:56):
Rupert's ground squirrel.
Rupert's ground squirrel.
If that's a guess, then comeback to us.

Speaker 1 (34:01):
It's not Rupert's ground squirrel.

Speaker 3 (34:03):
I'm thinking you said last name.
I'm kind of thinking Ronald Forthe name.
He's kind of thinking Ronaldfor the name, he's kind of
thinking.
Mcdonald Ronald.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
That's a first name.

Speaker 3 (34:14):
I know, but he said for the name for the R, you're
thinking last name and RonaldMcDonald.
That's his first name.
I'm just going off your hintshere.

Speaker 5 (34:22):
As soon as you say it .
I know I've definitely heard it.
You guys have probably heard it, I cannot remember.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Close.

Speaker 5 (34:30):
These guys were close .
What's close?

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Ground.

Speaker 4 (34:36):
Yeah, okay, we knew that.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
I'll give you another hint, because it's tough.
So S is squirrel, groundsquirrel.
Holy shit yeah.

Speaker 4 (34:43):
You were right.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
You kept saying that just screwing around.
I was like you're right, yeah.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
We just missed the name.

Speaker 1 (34:48):
Yeah, so the G is ground, the S is squirrel, so
RGS something ground squirrel,but everyone calls them gophers.

Speaker 5 (34:55):
No, it's the last name.

Speaker 1 (34:58):
Yeah, I think it's the last name.
What do you mean?
You think it's?

Speaker 5 (35:01):
the last name.

Speaker 1 (35:01):
It sounds like a last name to me.

Speaker 5 (35:04):
See, I was going to say like red ground squirrel.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
No, no, it's not a color, it's like someone's last
name.
You guys want me to just say it.

Speaker 5 (35:11):
Got to be like rain.
They got to get a guess.

Speaker 4 (35:13):
They got to get a guess, and then we'll take a
guess again.
It's a tougher one.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
I'm going to say it and you guys will probably have
heard it before.
Yeah, but yeah.

Speaker 5 (35:21):
Randy's ground squirrel, I would have to think.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
That is so cool if that was the right answer, but
Randy does not have a groundsquirrel, to my knowledge.

Speaker 4 (35:33):
Okay, we're going back to Team Testicles.
Can we get a hint on the secondletter of the letter?

Speaker 3 (35:39):
Oh yeah, Just give it to him.

Speaker 5 (35:41):
Or the last letter.
Why don't you just tell us whatit is and be done with it?
Yeah, just tell us what it is,all right.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
So it's the Richardson ground squirrels.
Richardson, they're unregulatedpests that can mostly be hunted
any time they do hibernate andthey're the most active in the
summer, and then their mainrange is in the western
provinces across Canada and theUSA.
So I thought gophers, but yeah,it's the Richardson ground
squirrel, and they do cause alot of havoc.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
We did get ground squirrel that was pretty good,
you guys got ground squirrel.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Yep, that's good.
Okay, so team spectacles.
Where is considered the bestdove hunting in the world?
Is it A Texas, b Argentina, c,colombia or D New Mexico?
What is considered the bestdove hunting in the world?

Speaker 5 (36:32):
I think it's Argentina.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
I don't know, I don't hunt doves?

Speaker 5 (36:35):
I don't either.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Okay, but what's considered if you had to guess,
caleb?

Speaker 3 (36:40):
Well, we've already said Texas in one answer, so
surely to goodness we wouldn'tpick the same state twice.
Yeah sure.

Speaker 5 (36:49):
Well, with that logic , I don't know how we couldn't
go with Argentina.
Okay, so you're going Argentina?

Speaker 1 (36:54):
Okay, so you guys are on the board.

Speaker 5 (36:57):
Yeah, give me high fives Nice.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
So Argentina is widely considered to have the
best dove hunting in the world,particularly in the Cordoba
region.

Speaker 5 (37:09):
Yeah, there's a shotgun in the Cordoba, benelli
Cordoba.
Yeah, honestly yes, there is.

Speaker 1 (37:14):
Benelli Cordoba.
Is it named after that?

Speaker 2 (37:16):
I'm guessing.

Speaker 1 (37:17):
I'm assuming Okay, I didn't know that, that's very
cool C-O-R-D-O-B-A yeah.
Yeah, that's it.
So based out of Argentina,argentina is considered some of
the best wing shooting in theworld, regardless.

Speaker 2 (37:28):
I know you get some crazy ducks down there, oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
So there's no season, there's no bag limits on the
doves and there's estimated tobe about 50 million there, wow,
so very cool.

Speaker 2 (37:39):
How many points you got with your aeroplane.
We can maybe go.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
Yeah, it would be fun .

Speaker 4 (37:47):
I don't think I have enough air miles.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
I've heard of a lot of Hunts on Outfitting's going
to sponsor us.
Hunts on Outfitting's going toneed another sponsor.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
We're taking our talents to.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
South Beach.
So really, Benelli makes aBenelli Cordova.

Speaker 4 (37:58):
I'm still thinking of ice cream.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
I think it's a fairly high-end gun too.
Oh yeah, anything named afterdove hunting is definitely For a
consumer grade shotgun, I thinkit's fairly.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Is that where the Benelli get their owl gun from?
Was it after no?

Speaker 3 (38:13):
Benelli Eagle.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
The Benelli Eagle, the Super Black Eagle.

Speaker 5 (38:16):
Okay, it's out of What'd you say?

Speaker 4 (38:19):
I'm reading the Benelli Super Black Eagle.
For what Eagle?

Speaker 5 (38:24):
hunting, oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
Followed by the Benelli Owl Vanelli Super Black
Eagle.
For what?
Eagle hunting oh?

Speaker 5 (38:28):
yeah, has nothing to do with America.
So the Ethos Cordoba is likebasically a really fancy Super
Black Eagle.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Is it carbon fiber?

Speaker 5 (38:40):
Yeah, it's black and carbon fiber.
It's fancy, it's nice.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
Yeah, cool, that's cool, it's named after there.

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Cool, it's like a nice.
That's cool, it's named afterthere.
So we are on to team testicles.
A group of crows is called awhat?

Speaker 3 (38:56):
It's a murder.

Speaker 2 (38:57):
I know it's a murder of ravens.

Speaker 1 (39:00):
Oh nice, crows and ravens are two different species
.
Some people don't know that.
Maybe it is.
No, I think you're right.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
To two different species, some people don't know
that, maybe it is a no, I thinkyou're right.
I think it is a murder of crowsRyan.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
Now that I'm saying it out loud, I wouldn't know
where else to go with that one.
I think we'll say crows.
No, we're going to say murder.
Oh, you guys are right.
If there was money on the line,I would have.

Speaker 5 (39:21):
I would have had that one in a heartbeat.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
Okay, so a group of crows is called a murder.
They should be managed andwreak havoc on many other birds'
nests that they eat their eggsof, turkey and waterfowl, etc.
So if you're a turkey waterfowlhunter, it's a good idea to try
to manage your local crowpopulation.

Speaker 5 (39:39):
Fun fact in the prairie pothole region I just
watched a thing the other daythere's water.
The pheasants have been knownto use empty duck nests.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Really.

Speaker 5 (39:49):
When they're done with them.
Yeah, because it's just easierto make them one right, like in
a spot where, like in MaryshaGround, where they both exist.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
All right, that's good.
I don't know if there's anytruth to this, but Google is
saying a group of ravens isconsidered a conspiracy, an
unkindness or simply a flock.

Speaker 5 (40:07):
Really, Is that something different?

Speaker 2 (40:13):
It's just saying a group of ravens can be referred
to as a conspiracy, anunkindness or simply as a flock.
Really, as Ken would say,that's what Google told me.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
Yeah, Okay and we go with that too.
We go with it, okay, whateverGoogle tells us, because there
is multiple uh sources, okay, um, so who am I on?
us okay spectacles, teamspectacles.
Okay, texas comes up a lot inhere.
It's because, though it's it'shot there, they have so much
stuff to hunt, so but I did nothave texas in here as an option.

(40:44):
But but Texas is in thequestion.
So, after Texas, which statehas the highest number of wild
hogs?
Is it A Georgia, b Louisiana, cAlabama or D Oklahoma?
Which state has the highestnumber of wild hogs?

(41:06):
I took Texas out because I knewyou guys would guess that one
right off.

Speaker 5 (41:08):
Boys, oh boys, it's testicles or is it spectacles?

Speaker 1 (41:13):
It's spectacles.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
Yeah, because we just got murder of crows Good job.

Speaker 5 (41:18):
Okay, review the states again.

Speaker 1 (41:19):
Okay, so highest number of wild hogs after Texas,
georgia, louisiana, alabama,alabama or Oklahoma, caleb want
to help your partner Talk itthrough guys.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
So it's not Texas because it's not on there, just
said that, after Texas, thiswill be the second highest.
I'm kind of thinking Oklahomaor something.

Speaker 1 (41:45):
Because it's next to Texas.
Texas, yeah, is that whatyou're thinking?

Speaker 3 (41:50):
Well, I mean, it would make sense, wouldn't it?

Speaker 1 (41:52):
I'm asking you.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Well, yeah, I'm asking my partner.
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (41:56):
Your guess is as good as mine.
We can go with that.
You're going with Oklahoma,yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:00):
Okay, no, that's good , that's good thinking, caleb,
and unfortunately you'rethinking got it wrong.
No, it's right.
It of Texas, yeah, yeah.
So Oklahoma estimated to haveabout 1.5 million, followed by
Louisiana at about 750,000.
I guess Texas has about 3million.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
That's nuts.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
I couldn't imagine trying to farm there.
How do you farm?
You think we have a nice hayfield.

Speaker 2 (42:27):
There's not much for hay in Texas, is there?

Speaker 3 (42:29):
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I know.

Speaker 2 (42:32):
So not everyone's running the scrub.
No, no, texas is so big.
No, they have good airwatersthere, okay.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
No, no, they do a lot .
But you just imagine what yousee around here, what domestic
pigs can do.
Imagine you have a nice hayfield or soybean corn, whatever,
and a group of wild hogs goesthrough.
I couldn't imagine it would bebrutal.

Speaker 2 (42:50):
And I think other warm ground crops like I know
down don't they grow a lot ofpeanuts and stuff down in those
states.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
Florida, I believe, georgia, georgia, pecans in
Georgia and stuff, but so thereare.
Just by Google there are 12states.
You can hunt them year round.
Canada is also getting themhere.
Canada.
There's hogs in Alberta,saskatchaskatchewan, I think,
manitoba and ontario.
There's no uh bag limit on them, no seasons.

(43:20):
You shoot on scene, yeah and uh.

Speaker 2 (43:23):
So I've looked into the ontario population a little
bit.
They're also what they'recalling wild pigs.
They have a map too of all thesightings, whatever.
So what they call a wild pigcould be either be a wild hog.
A pig that has escaped fromsomebody's farm is now wild, and
there there was a couple otherdifferent ones.
Something that's escaped fromlike a slaughterhouse, let's say
or something that's beenescaped, then reproduced in the

(43:44):
wild.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
Well, it's amazing, they said.
Pigs are like one of thequickest animals to adapt from
being domestic to wild.
They said their snout will getlonger.
It will get, it'll get longerand they'll grow hair on them
quickly.
Okay, they can adaptunbelievably quickly and well.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
Yeah, I want to say there's been like over, I think,
when I read an article from acouple of years ago and there
was like over 750 hog sightingsin Ontario.
Really, I don't know whatperiod of time that was over.

Speaker 1 (44:09):
Well, there's wild boar farms in Ontario.
You can legally buy and havewild boar farms.
So you think all it would take?

Speaker 2 (44:16):
is a tree to fall on the fence.
I think there's an elk farmclose to where I'm working at up
there.
I'm pretty sure.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
Yeah, probably, I think so they're fun to hunt,
but I couldn't imagine trying tofarm with having them in the
area.
It would be brutal, I brutal.
I mean you can only put up somuch fence.

Speaker 2 (44:30):
Now, Caleb, did you know the answer for that one, or
did you read the look on myface when you read Oklahoma?

Speaker 3 (44:34):
I wasn't looking at you, no.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
You knew it was Oklahoma too.
I've had a feeling when he saidOklahoma's the fourth answer.
I had to bite my tongue.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
Because it's near.

Speaker 2 (44:43):
Texas.

Speaker 4 (44:44):
Same as the current thing I own.

Speaker 2 (44:50):
I just knew Oklahoma's just north of Texas.
I think Louisiana's swampiermore, but I know Oklahoma being
plains and all that and you seea lot of guys Florida's got a
lot too.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
I went there hunting hogs and there's no shortage of
them there, they said.
I think more are killed by carthan anything else.
They don't have any predators.
Really Not much is going totangle with them If they're
crossing a swamp or something agator might grab them.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
It's like a moose in Newfoundland.

Speaker 1 (45:15):
It's got no predator.
Yeah, exactly.
So what are we on?
Team Testicles?
Just think, when I put thewrite-up on, when the podcast
comes out, it's probably goingto say both these names.
What is the largest wild pigspecies in the world?
Is it A the Russian wild boar?
And some of these might be madeup, some of these might not be.

(45:36):
Is it A the Russian wild boar?
B the giant forest hog, or Okay, at least make an effort, at
least make an effort.
I'm on the other team here.
African bush pig.
Oh, come on.
What is the largest wild pigspecies in the world?
This is according to Google.

(45:56):
Is it A the Russian wild boar,b the giant forest hog or C
African bush pig?
I said these might be made up.
They might not be.
These could be 100% real.

Speaker 2 (46:09):
I'm thinking bush pig is made up and I think African
is a trick.
When I hear African Bush Pig Ithink a little Charlotte's Web
looking.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
What did you say?
That was again yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:22):
African Bush Pig.
I think African Bush Pig.
I think some little thingthat's running scared, but I
think a Russian or Siberian.

Speaker 4 (46:30):
What was the name of the Russian one?
Again, russian Wild Boar.

Speaker 1 (46:31):
You see the videos of the Russian one again Russian
wild boar.
You see the videos of thoseguys, See a boar sounds strong.

Speaker 2 (46:36):
And then you see the Russian guys.
They're all shouting andRussian or whatever, with their
single-shot rifles and they'remissing them, but the hogs are
standing chest-tight to thesethings.
I think it's.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
African bush pig.
That sounds like an insult.
You called somebody Screw youAfrican bush pig.
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (46:54):
I just think African bush pig is that's something
that takes it HR.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
That just sounds like a little suckling or something
that's ready to, just ready togo to pasture.

Speaker 3 (47:01):
Well.

Speaker 2 (47:01):
Ready to come like I don't know.
I think Russian boar, yeah, buthave you ever seen them like?

Speaker 4 (47:06):
when they're going out like lions and stuff like
that, hogs or whatever they havethere.

Speaker 2 (47:11):
Isn't that a warthog, though that's in Africa.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
Warthogs are pretty feisty too.

Speaker 2 (47:19):
I think Russian boar.
You know what I'm good withthat.
We're going to go Russian boar.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
You guys going with the wrong one, so you guys have
an option here.
So what is the largest wild pigspecies in the world?
This we got from Google.
So is it not the Russian wildboar?
So it's between the giantforest hog and the African bush
pig, and I'm smiling at you.

Speaker 5 (47:42):
I can't even take myself for you seriously when
you say giant forest hog Caleb.
What do you think?

Speaker 3 (47:49):
I think they're all made up, okay.

Speaker 5 (47:51):
No, they aren't.
So that means we have to go seeright.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
Yeah, let's go see, just because we'll be on the
opposite pole.

Speaker 1 (47:59):
That's wrong.
So the giant forest hog no,stop it right now Is also an
insult.
I called somebody.
Somebody cut me off in traffic.
They're like you, giant foresthog?
No, I'm just kidding you, giantforest hog?
No, I'm just kidding.
That's actually the correctanswer.
None of these were made up.
The Russian wild boar is real.
The African bush pig is real.
They're really funny lookingugly things.

Speaker 2 (48:18):
Are they?

Speaker 1 (48:19):
small.
They're medium sized.

Speaker 3 (48:21):
They're not real small, were they on a cartoon.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
They might have been.

Speaker 3 (48:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (48:24):
I've really done that much research into them, caleb,
but the giant forest hog isconsidered the largest breed of
any pig, with huge tusks andweight of around 600 pounds.
They can be very elusive in thejungles of Africa, and I know
what you're thinking they'refreaky looking.

Speaker 4 (48:41):
So they are a giant forest hog.

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Yeah, that's what I call my sister.
Sometimes no, but um.

Speaker 2 (48:46):
And I think too.
When I think forest, I don'treally think Africa.
You said they're a jungle, butthat's oh okay.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
You look them up, they're freaky looking, so
you're thinking 600 pounds,isn't that big?

Speaker 4 (48:54):
Africa has some fairly forested areas.

Speaker 1 (48:57):
Yeah, what's it?
The French Guiana of Africa?
It's all jungle, mm-hmm.
You see them, dalton.

Speaker 5 (49:07):
They're freaky looking, aren and they've got
enormous tusks on them.

Speaker 1 (49:11):
So you're thinking 600 pounds isn't that big, but
that's like their average weight.

Speaker 5 (49:14):
I didn't say that.
I never said that.

Speaker 1 (49:16):
No, but I know what you're thinking no, you don't.
So for a wild pig, that's big,that's really big.

Speaker 4 (49:22):
Look underneath their eyes.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
They're freaky looking and apparently they look
like they're always tired.

Speaker 5 (49:28):
I pictured Jim Shockey, Not Lane Lewis.
Jim Shockey With one.

Speaker 2 (49:33):
Here's an article right here.
The giant forest hog, unknownto most, is the largest species
of wild pig.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
I'm pretty sure I just said something about that.

Speaker 5 (49:42):
I feel, like there was a question earlier.
I can't believe we just gotthat wrong.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
I was more focused on the unknown to most.

Speaker 1 (49:47):
I told you guys it could be made up because I was
like giant forest hog.
You guys are like oh yeah, it'smade out.

Speaker 4 (49:51):
I think I threw everyone off when I laughed.

Speaker 1 (49:52):
as soon as he said giant forest hog, he was smiling
too, it's because I did callsomebody that in traffic the
other week, but it's a realanimal.
No, they're freaky looking andthey're big and they're
considered quite a trophy tohunters, but I guess, yeah,
they're elusive.

Speaker 2 (50:07):
We need a list down here of all the stuff we got.
To go At least someone from thepodcast to cross off each
species we talk about.
Yeah, ibex, I try to get a lot.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
Yeah, yeah, I would try to get somebody on to talk
about Ibex.
Somebody's listening to thisthat hunts Ibex.

Speaker 5 (50:21):
There's nobody that is listening to this that hunts
Ibex.
In case there is, we want to doit.
We're in 30 countries.
Four or five tags if you could.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
Also, we want a dove hunt too.
That's poor New Brunswickers,yeah.

Speaker 1 (50:31):
I would like to go on a dove hunt, actually.

Speaker 2 (50:33):
I would love to hunt doves.
I personally think NewBrunswick could have a season.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
So I think Nova Scotia does.

Speaker 2 (50:39):
I believe Ontario has , and I don't know about Quebec
or not, but I personally think Isee you see so many I don't
good.

Speaker 1 (50:48):
They've got to taste good.

Speaker 2 (50:50):
I guess they are very good, it's an early September
hunt also, correct?

Speaker 1 (50:54):
It is Most states that have it.
It's early September.

Speaker 5 (50:57):
Great in time to train yourself up to on shotgun.
That'd be awesome, susan.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
Holt, if you're listening.

Speaker 3 (51:03):
They do not listen to this.

Speaker 1 (51:06):
I don't think any liberals listen to this.

Speaker 5 (51:09):
Gary, we love you.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Okay, so who's question?
Team Spectacles.
So, this predator is found inall the United States except
Hawaii, and I'm not giving youanswers, you're going to give me
one.
So this predator is found inall the United States except
Hawaii.

Speaker 5 (51:33):
Black bear, I was thinking coyote.
I can't imagine there's a statethat there's not a coyote in.

Speaker 1 (51:38):
Except Hawaii, possibly.

Speaker 5 (51:39):
Oh fuck Hawaii.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Aloha, oh shit, yeah, I'd say we could go with coyote
.
Yeah, let's go with coyote,because I feel like there's Read
that question again.
This predator is found in allthe United States except Hawaii.

Speaker 5 (51:57):
What state would not have a black bear?

Speaker 3 (52:00):
I don't Hawaii.
No, I don't know Because Idon't know Like Florida.
Even Florida has black bears, Iknow.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah, they just got a season on them.
Congrats Florida.
They've been fighting for that,yeah, good job they did.

Speaker 3 (52:15):
Oh, that's good for them.

Speaker 1 (52:16):
I also don't know what state wouldn't have a
coyote and also a fun fact aboutblack bears is that Alberta
just got back hound huntingblack bears in certain wildlife
management zones, so congrats.

Speaker 2 (52:26):
Alberta.
We're just rooting for NovaScotia's spring season now.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
Yeah, they had it, but politics cut in the way.
Alberta and Florida.
It's good, good wins, good job.

Speaker 5 (52:35):
What do you want to go with?

Speaker 3 (52:37):
We can go with coyote .

Speaker 1 (52:39):
Coyote.
Alright, guys, I'm happy youguys are going with the right
answer it is coyotes.
These coyotes, in most areascan be hunted year-round with no
bag limits, not really any ofthe season, and, as we all know,
as deer hunters and stuff theyshould be managed.
So shoot your local coyote.

(53:01):
Okay, team Testicles.
Which province in Canada issaid to have the highest
population of coyotes?
Is it A Alberta, b, ontario?

Speaker 2 (53:17):
C.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
Manitoba or D Nova Scotia.

Speaker 3 (53:21):
Before we get after this, let's get a scoreboard
update.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
Okay, yeah, so we're actually pretty close.
So team testicles is four, teamspectacles is three.
I like it.
This is not a landslide onelike normal.
Actually, the past few haven'tbeen like, it's been a lot
closer.
So we're four to three.
This is close.
I have a bonus question as well.

Speaker 3 (53:44):
Nice.

Speaker 1 (53:45):
So which province in Canada is said to have the
highest population of coyotes?

Speaker 2 (53:49):
A Alberta, B Ontario, C Manitoba, d nova scotia and
we're talking straight up numberof coyotes, not coyotes per
capita or coyotes per squarekilometer we're talking
population.
Okay, good question I think wecould rule out nova scotia,
that's a pretty easy one yeah, Ithink they definitely could

(54:11):
have taken it per squarekilometer or per capita or
something along that, but Idon't think they have the area
to support a straight up number.

Speaker 4 (54:18):
No, the worst part is I was going to say Saskatchewan
before you started reading it.
That one didn't come up.

Speaker 2 (54:26):
I automatically think the Prairies too, because it
was Alberta, saskatchewan,ontario and Nova Scotia right.

Speaker 4 (54:32):
Alberta Manitoba and.

Speaker 1 (54:34):
Ontario.

Speaker 4 (54:35):
It's between those three, okay, I mean Ontario is
very vast.

Speaker 2 (54:41):
So again working up there.
I know a lot of guys there.
They got the dog boxes wherethey pull out in the field and
hit the button and all the doorsfall down and they chase them.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
They lose their dogs.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
Those are the coolest things ever, Literally.
So they got big competitions upthere where you see the guys
bringing in the 150 and 200 in aweekend.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
The hound guys, they'll use the greyhounds and
whippets and stuff for that, butthey also have hounds out there
for coyote hunting.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Yeah, yeah, I don't know, this is a really tough one
.

Speaker 1 (55:07):
Like you guys are thinking so far.

Speaker 2 (55:14):
I think manitoba isn't is definitely prairie, but
I think it's not prairie enough.

Speaker 4 (55:16):
Well, it's a very short distance of prairie there,
yeah I don't know.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
I I think landmass area, I think alberta, that's
what you think, but again, itcould be any three of those, but
I personally think alberta, butit could be.
I don't think it's Manitoba, Idon't think it's Nova.

Speaker 4 (55:31):
Scotia, you think it's either between Alberta or
Ontario.

Speaker 2 (55:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (55:37):
But if you had to pick one, because you do- I'll
let Ryan pick.
Okay.

Speaker 4 (55:41):
Ooh, I don't know, I'm going to go with I'm
thinking Ontario.
With this one, let's go Ontario.

Speaker 1 (55:46):
You guys go with Ontario.
You guys have just won.
I know Alberta, I would havepicked Alberta.
So, jacob, you were sayingabout Nova Scotia per capita or
whatever they do have, thehighest is what it said.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
Per capita or per?
Yeah, because they have a lot,a lot, a lot there.
But I just know they wouldn'thave the area to support the
population.

Speaker 1 (56:08):
When I was reading about it they said, yeah, per
capita or whatever stuff, NovaScotia does have the most.
It's a good guess, Alberta andOntario that definitely would
have been what I'd be pickingfrom, but Ontario.
So it's saying that Ontariodoes have the most.
And also, apparently they havebeen seen in Newfoundland
getting there from the ice, fromNova Scotia, I guess, which

(56:29):
kind of seems crazy.

Speaker 4 (56:32):
I thought they introduced coyotes to
Newfoundland.

Speaker 1 (56:35):
Well, on Hinterland, that's what they said about.
They've been seeingNewfoundland getting there from
the ice.

Speaker 4 (56:42):
No, there's 100% coyotes in Newfoundland.

Speaker 1 (56:44):
Yeah well, apparently , according to Hinterland,
there's a thriving population.
Yeah, they have been seen.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
So I got a friend that lives in Labrador,
newfoundland and Labrador arejust starting to see for the
first year ever ticks.
Really, and they just had onefor the first time today,
confirmed to carry Lyme disease.

Speaker 1 (57:04):
They never had ticks before.

Speaker 2 (57:05):
They've never had ticks until— so you think the?

Speaker 1 (57:06):
coyotes brought them over.
Something brought them over.

Speaker 2 (57:08):
I'm not saying that it could be dogs, could be
livestock, could be in food,could be in lumber, but I'm just
saying that for new thingsbeing seen.
This is the first year, one ofthe first years for ticks in
Newfoundland and Labrador.
Really.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
Yep, Well, good luck boys.
The ticks friggin' suck andthere seems to be no way to
control them.
What's the bonus question?
The bonus question you guyswant it.

Speaker 4 (57:31):
Of course, the bonus question you guys want it, of
course.

Speaker 1 (57:35):
This is actually pretty close.
What is your host with the most?
Who knows the least?
Ken Meyers' favorite summertimeanimal to hunt?

Speaker 4 (57:44):
Is it locally?

Speaker 1 (57:45):
Yeah, trash, pandas, yeah Raccoons, you betcha.

Speaker 4 (57:49):
Raccoon season starts up next month and I'm fired up
and ready to go.

Speaker 1 (57:52):
I were talking about that at the beginning of the
podcast, yeah it's kind of whatI do, as you guys know quite a
bit.

Speaker 2 (57:58):
Okay, here's one, a fishing one.
We're coming into prime time.
We're fishing once this hotJuly weather passes.
Okay, I'll take a shot at it.

Speaker 1 (58:05):
I do not know fishing .

Speaker 4 (58:06):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (58:06):
Ken's this, one Of all the salmon species in Canada
because I don't know what theword would for sure Canada, what
is the only salmon species thatdoesn't die after it spawns?

Speaker 1 (58:17):
I didn't know any of them died after they spawned.

Speaker 4 (58:19):
What that's like most of them do.

Speaker 2 (58:22):
Like BC River.
You've never seen the bearsdragging them out of the river
and stuff.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
They die faster than they can eat them.

Speaker 2 (58:30):
I've seen them, they spawn.
No wonder the populations arelow.
No, some of those rivers havemillions and millions of fish
return every year.
It'll surprise you the fishthat doesn't die has the lowest
population problem.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Is it like the Atlantic salmon?
Give us three options.

Speaker 2 (58:45):
Ryan, it's the Atlantic salmon.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
Don't give us any options.

Speaker 3 (58:49):
I didn't know if any of us knew I was going to say
yeah.

Speaker 1 (58:53):
That's what I'm heading to do tomorrow.
I was going to say landlockedsalmon because I've heard that
name that's an Atlantic salmon.
That's an landlocked Atlanticsalmon yeah, exactly that's why
we got it right.
Good job, ryan.

Speaker 2 (59:05):
Landlocked Atlantic salmon, that's the same thing
when you hear guys in NewBrunswick especially talk about
a landlocked salmon, or inQuebec, or in New Brunswick
especially talk about alandlocked salmon, or in Quebec
or northern New Brunswick theycall it a Wawaniche.
It's a landlocked Atlanticsalmon, that's all it is, and a
lot of them get stalked.

Speaker 1 (59:20):
Oh, okay, there are a lot of wild ones.
Is it by people they know?
Because apparently, when mostpeople get stalked it is by
somebody you know.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Mine is the ALK there , but you've never seen the
videos of all the bears draggingthose pigs.

Speaker 1 (59:36):
No, I've seen the bears all waiting and catch them
as they're trying to go up tospawn.
Yeah, so that's so.

Speaker 2 (59:38):
Those fish are running upriver to spawn, To
spawn yes, and once they're towhere because salmon, always a
salmon baby knows where it wasborn to return to what's the
baby's called.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
Well, there's fry, there's pyre small.

Speaker 2 (59:51):
There's fry pyre small Okay fry.

Speaker 3 (59:52):
There's different stages for salmon.

Speaker 2 (59:54):
Yeah, but there's certain fish that only return
every second year.
Some return every year.
But all those West Coast salmon, the kings, the cohos, the
silvers, the pinks, the chums,they all die after spawning.
Jeez, and then New brunswick andthe atlantic coast of the

(01:00:16):
atlantic salmon doesn't die, butit has the lowest population.
For abstinence.
There's a but.
It's in the fish world.
A lot of fish die afterspawning holy so, like right now
in newfoundland, for an example.
You hear guys talk about thecapelin run.
It's literally like theselittle smelt looking fish that
wash up on the beach.
They're still alive, but theyspawn like where the waves break
okay on the beach.
They're still alive, but theyspawn where the waves break On

(01:00:36):
the beach.
The reason those salmon aredying they've spent all their
energy.
They have to get all the way upriver to lay their eggs.
They're pretty much justexhausted and die at the end.

Speaker 1 (01:00:44):
I felt like that after my hike last week, but I'm
here to keep going.
That's crazy.
You've got to think too.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
Imagine if you were like the fertilizer that that
forest gets when those bearsdrag those fish off.

Speaker 1 (01:00:57):
The eagles drag the fish off.
Is that why, like in BC andstuff, the trees are so massive?
You think is from thatfertilizer a little.

Speaker 2 (01:01:03):
It could be, yeah, part of their temperate
rainforest and all kinds ofstuff.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
Yeah, that's probably most of it, and they haven't
raped and pillaged theirprovince with logging as bad as
we have.
Shout out.

Speaker 2 (01:01:14):
I didn't say any names.
There's lots of private loggersin the province.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
My employer, no, Good job boys.
You guys won your koozies.
We'll be doing some more triviaones soon.

Speaker 5 (01:01:28):
Where's my T-shirt from the last one that I won?
