Show Notes

This episode is dedicated to all the chuckar hunters out there...

Today on the show; Adam Stempeck and Damon Booth talk about the "Red Legged Devil" (AKA the Chuckar), conservation, the Martin Fire, and the Chuckar Chasers Foundation!

Chucker Chasers is a community of outdoor enthusiast, sportsman, and women that stand to promote the great outdoors, wildlife, and recreational hunting. They emphasize the importance and responsibility of being an ethical hunter by exposing others to the deeply rooted pastime of one of our greatest outdoor traditions, upland game hunting. They serve as an informative resource for those interested in experiencing the thrill and respect for the chase.

These guys did one hell of a job documenting the Martin fire rehabilitation in Nevada. The fire burned a total area of 439,230 acres. It was the largest fire in Nevada’s history, and one of the biggest in the U.S. The blaze destroyed six ranches, grazing land, and animal habitats. Not only that, but the Chuckar Chasers Foundation also helps provide youth hunts and conservation efforts for chuckar habitats!

This episode is a little "outside the box" of the usual, but its a good deviation from the norm!

Stay safe, stay savage...

Enjoy!
