If you go to any public range on a Saturday afternoon and ask the people on the firing line if they “know how to shoot,” and chances are, you’ll receive some form of the following answers: “No, but I’m here with my friend/relative/trainer to learn to shoot.”“Sort of. I could be better.”“Yeah, I know how to shoot.” The problem here is how we define “knowing how to shoot?” Law enforcement and the military have their standards which may or may not have any relevance to the armed citizen.

Winter-range elk feeding programs, like those near Jackson, Wyoming, are a double-edged sword for elk herds. On one hand, the hay and alfalfa handout stations can harbor and spread lethal diseases like CWD through the herds, but on the flip side, they’re also thought to prevent mass starvation and winter kill in heavy snow years.
