THE HUNT AND SHOTGUNS.




The hunt is an art that has been practiced since time pastThe nobles and kings were the ones who huntedbut not with gunsbut with their horses with spears or hawksThus was born the falconry. 




Many centuries later began hunting with pointing dogsbut still continued to use the falcon.
In the 19th century began to use the first riflescalls shotguns avancarga These weapons were very heavy and took too long to recharge the gunpowderIn the 20th century an important change in the manufacture of weaponsand the cartridge was inventedJ.K. Browning invented the first semi-automatic shotgun and first gun superimposed.
The queen of small game is the partridgeIt is a non-migratory speciesAnother species known among hunters and the incentive of each hunting season is the zorzalThis really is a migratory species that comes from northern Europe, when temperatures drop here in OctoberOther game species that we can find arebecada, wood pigeon, rabbit, hareánade real... .

                                                                 
                                                                                                                      

     

















QUESTIONS:
 1. Who hunt with falcons in the antiquity?
 2. Do you know the name of the king who was hunting deer with a spear on horseback?
 3. Do you know another species of pointing dogs?
 4. What is the FAC?

  10. Hi everyone!

    You know that usually I comment in the first or second day, but this was a terrible week... Well, my opinion about this post: I knew that you were going to talk about this topic, that, although it's an interesting one because of animals, I don't like hunting so much. I prefere buy meat in supermarkets. But we know that you like it so much, so congratulations! The most important thing is feeling well with our post. And now, my answers!

    1| In the antiquity, nobles and kings hunted with their horses.
    2| The king Sancho VI of Navarre was the one who created the Hunt's Code.
    3| Some breeds of pointing dogs are the Gordon Setter, Spanish Pointer, the Old Danish Pointer...
    4| It's the Andalusian Hunting Federation.

    Bye Seba, Bye Class! Good post!
