My old man removed the firing pin from my rifle so that I could also
get use to handling ammo as well.

My wildlife calendar reminds me that young wildlife may be sighted in
the woods. Please do not pick up these youngsters. Mom is just off
feeding. Well, an exception might be what happened to my partner the
other day. Mom plunged into the river where he was fishing, swam
across and took off. Minutes later, a VERY young fawn attempted to
follow her and damn near drowned. My partner dried the hypothermic
little guy off and stashed him in the woods where he went to sleep. I
don't think the human smell will keep mom from coming back for him.

The calendar also says baby seals appear on beaches. Look but do not touch.
They are not abandoned. Well, being a fisherman... nevermind.
