GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – Gun-deer season is a week-and-a-half away. It’s good to start thinking of ways you’ll have a successful hunt while protecting your health.
Before you head off into the woods or fields this year, remember the physical demands of hunting can put significant strain on your cardiovascular system.
As a hunter, you often walk long distances while carrying gear or drag a heavy deer after a successful hunt.
Doctors say people with heart and lung conditions face a much higher risk of heart attack during hunting activities.
You may not be prepared to physically take on the extra stress and demand on your body.
Heart attack symptoms vary by gender
As we’ve reported at the First Alert Safety Desk, heart attack symptoms can sometimes be different between men and women. Men usually experience dizziness or lightheadedness with a racing heartbeat. Women may feel jaw or back pain and nausea.
Experts recommend you take time to calm down after a successful hunt.
“It’s hard to tell people to stay calm and relax, but that would be their best option if they are successful on their hunt,” said Megan Johnson, a nurse practitioner at Aspirus Cardiology. “This is for anybody, not necessarily hunters, but hunters especially because they’re doing extreme physical activity when they’re hunting.”
Reducing health risks
Doctors say, don’t ignore any symptoms you might be having.
A way to reduce your risk is by exercising 5 days a week for at least 30 minutes, eating a heart-healthy, low-sodium diet and staying hydrated.
It’s also recommended you get plenty of sleep the night before going for your hunt.
Wisconsin DNR safety reminders
That brings us to some good reminders from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources:
- Make sure you practice tree stand safety. Always wear a full-body harness, also known as a fall-arrest system.
- Practice gun safety, including treating every firearm as if it’s loaded.
- Make sure at least 50% of your outer clothing above the waist is blaze orange or fluorescent pink.
People Are Allowed to Kill As Many Wolves As They Want in This State, With No Limits on Brutal Methods Used

- by: Care2 Team

63,965 SUPPORTERS

A man in Wyoming became infamous for horrible abuse against a wild wolf he captured and later killed, yet at the time he was barely punished. Why? Because in most of Wyoming, killing wolves is completely legal – and hunters can use any method at all to do so.
Sign the petition to demand Wyoming lawmakers finally issue protections for wildlife, including wolves, to shield them from such cruelty and slaughter!
The so-called “Wolf Captor” of Wyoming made international headlines after he injured a wolf cub – using a snowmobile to run it over until it could hardly move – and then muzzled the animal, keeping it captive and parading it around town, before ultimately killing it.
He even brought the defenseless wolf to his local bar, where he took photos grinning while holding a beer in one hand – and roping the terrified animal in close. After he was done, he took the captive wolf out back behind that very same bar. And then he shot and killed it, after it had out-lived its entertainment purposes.
Yet since wolves are considered vermin and predators in most of Wyoming, the state’s Game and Fish department only penalized him with a $250 fine. Now, a year later, he’s finally being faced with felony animal cruelty charges.
But even now, his callous slaughter of this majestic animal is actually still perfectly legal. And Wyoming lawmakers still haven’t set limits on how people are allowed to kill wolves. Torturous trapping, violent explosive and firearms, sadistic vehicle collisions – all are acceptable. Even worse: there are no limits on how many wolves a person is allowed to kill.
Sign the petition to demand that Wyoming leaders change the law to show proper respect for wildlife, including wolves. They are living beings who feel pain and pleasure, and should never be treated so ruthlessly. They must save wolves from wanton killings and implement protections for these incredible animals now!
Wear hunter orange in Indiana this month if you’re outdoors, it’s deer firearms season
The Herald-Times
Keep Watching

In Indiana, the best time to wear orange if you’re hiking or recreating outdoors is November and into December.
When and why to wear orange?
Hunter orange is the color and starting the first Saturday after Veterans Day (Nov. 15) and running until Nov. 30 is firearms deer hunting season in the Hoosier state. All deer hunters are required to wear hunter orange, even while walking to and from their hunting location. It’s recommended for anyone outdoor in fields and woods during firearm season as well.
After the firearms season ends, it’s not long before the muzzleloader season begins. This year it runs Dec. 6-21.
Where can people hunt deer in Indiana?
There are many private properties where hunting is allowed. Hunters must have permission from the land owner to hunt.
In addition many public properties in Indiana allow hunting. That includes state forests and recreation areas (Yellowwood and Morgan-Monroe state forests), including recreation areas at Lake Monroe, as well as in the Hoosier National Forest.
What’s new this year?
In 2025, the use of crossbows is allowed throughout deer archery season, which runs now through Jan. 4, 2026.

Volunteers rescue sea lion washed up on a Santa Cruz County beach
Over 200 beachgoers watched on as the rescue progressed

SANTA CRUZ — Volunteers with the Marine Mammal Center rescued a sea lion that washed up on the beach at Natural Bridges State Beach Sunday afternoon.
The Marine Mammal Center is a nonprofit organization and marine mammal hospital that rescues, rehabilitates and studies marine mammals in Hawai’i and along the California coastline. The organization received reports on its hotline of a California sea lion on the busy beach Sunday and a team of trained volunteers from the hospital’s triage facility in Castroville arrived at the beach just after 3 p.m.

The sea lion weighed about 200 pounds and appeared to be in poor condition, said Giancarlo Rulli, a spokesperson for the Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito. It was reactive and registered the volunteers’ presence but was lethargic. The volunteers worked together to corral the animal into a large metal box as a crowd of beachgoers formed to watch the rescue in progress. The crowd applauded once the sea lion was safely secured in the box and the volunteers carried it up the beach.
The sea lion was taken to the Castroville triage center, where it stayed overnight. Monday morning, the animal was found dead. It will be transported to the Marine Mammal Center’s main hospital in Sausalito. There, it will undergo an animal autopsy to try and determine the cause of the sea lion’s poor condition, strange behavior and its eventual death.

The rescue comes in the middle of a severe outbreak of leptospirosis, a bacterial infection that causes kidney failure in sea lions. The behavior of the sea lion at Natural Bridges was consistent with some leptospirosis symptoms, but the Marine Mammal Center cannot yet confirm whether the animal was infected.This year’s leptospirosis outbreak has been the largest on record, Rulli said. The Marine Mammal Center has responded to over 450 California sea lions with the disease since July 1. For comparison, previous record years 2004 and 2018 each saw around 300 sick sea lions. The numbers seem to be tapering off now, Rulli said, but the epidemic isn’t over yet.
This year’s major outbreak is a mystery, according to Rulli. Scientists have been trying to understand why the disease spreads rapidly once every three to five years, and haven’t been able to find many answers. The current outbreak is particularly unusual, due to the large number of sick animals and the fact that outbreaks usually begin in the fall.
Leptospirosis can be fatal to dogs. For that reason, Rulli said, it’s important for owners to keep their dogs leashed on the beach and not allow them to approach sea lions or other marine mammals. Beach visitors are also advised to keep at least 150 feet of distance from marine mammals on the beach. Anyone who sees a marine mammal that could be sick or injured can call the Marine Mammal Center’s hotline at 415-289-7325, and volunteers will respond to evaluate whether the animal needs rescue.
