    Medical Question

    If it's tick bite fever, you must take doxycycline but also at a high enough loading dose and a high enough daily for enough days. Most US doctors will NOT give you any where near a high enough dose nor for long enough. I hope you are getting into a specialist tomorrow!!!

    Hello from the Texas Hill Country!

    Kudu; as I understand it the Cape Kudu is the same genotype as Southern Greater Kudu, there were big discussions on here years ago about that. The difference is really only environmental and so the "cape" kudu are smaller bodied and tend to have more vibrant coloring. I mean they are all...

    I'm sure folks would like to know how much the trophy fee is on a hyena. Looks like you could put together a nice package hunt! I hope some members take advantage of this great deal on a bull elephant hunt for the price of a buffalo;) Great way to get the experience at a low cost.

    Giraffe question from newbie

    No a howitzer would have been really difficult to lug up those hills and especially difficult carrying through the bushes we stalked through to get close to that thing. They always hold the high ground but we were able to get up at the level. That .505 525 grain TSX made one neat little hole ;)

    It is straight up election tampering. And Biden was bragging about it! He made a snide remark saying "My opponent is busy". I'd absolutely prefer another Republican instead of Trump. But this pisses me off so that I'm supporting Trump now.

    Saul I do believe there are many cases of strong evidence that Biden cares for no one a f nothing but himself and his own.

    Just my opinion, but I think two things are very obvious to the casual observer. 1. Mail in ballots are easy to use and easy to use fraudulently. 2.
