Wildlife

Rarely do I ever say trust that I am an expert on something. But, in the case of holes that have started appearing in Missouri yards, I am. My expertise is why you never ever want to put your hand down those holes and I can prove why with science, pictures and video.

It's almost time. A feared Missouri predator that continues to have an increasing profile in the Show Me State is about to reappear in the woods any moment now.

I have fished much of my life in Missouri and I'll never forget the first time I came across a large number of fish floating near the shore dead as a door nail. It always made me wonder exactly what in the world would cause so many fish to suddenly go belly up? There is some science at work although there's still an air of uncertainty about it all.

The thought of a Missouri man claiming that he not only saw a Bigfoot, but the fact that he believes the creature gifted him a deer without a head is probably laugh-inducing. He seriously believes this happened and I happen to believe he is telling the truth.

I consider myself a natural-born skeptic and a new scientific paper won't be changing that outlook anytime soon. It makes a wild claim that feral hogs are actually good for Missouri.

We're not far into 2024 yet and already the year has gotten stranger. This is just one example. After a rash of almost constant mountain lion sightings in Missouri in 2023, these big cats have seemingly just disappeared. Why the sudden scarcity of sightings?

What you're about to see is not from Texas even though it looks like something that would be way more common in the Lonestar State. It's an armadillo that was spotted on the run in extreme east-central Illinois and I have a photo to prove it.

The Big Piney River is one of the more underrated waterways in Missouri. While it's a beautiful area, sometimes strange things happen in that region. That has never been more true than an encounter where a man claims he witnessed a Bigfoot attack a pack of wild hogs.

If you don't get out much, you might not know about a problem that has plagued Missouri for years and it's getting worse. The stories are true about huge 250 pound feral beasts that are wreaking havoc on the Missouri pastures and woods.

This just in. Illinois has plenty of deer. If you're wondering why the Land of Lincoln is making statements about wildlife, there's a simple explanation.
