Deer Heart Tacos

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Simon Tiedge

After having the opportunity to try venison heart on my first white-tailed deer hunting trip, I was quite surprised by how much I liked it. If I rated the cuts on a deer by my personal preference, I would say it is in the prime cut category, with backstrap and tenderloins. It’s not quite as tender, and it has a distinct flavor, but it’s delicious and a sizable amount of meat. The heart for this particular dish came from a friend of mine. He and his dad invited me to hunt their land in ...

Governor Sisolak Signs Executive Order to Conserve Migration Corridors and Wildlife Habitiat

[EasyDNNnewsLocalizedText:Author]: Nevada BHA Chapter

Photo by Erich Dutchover The vast, open sagebrush country of Nevada is often overlooked by travelers passing through. Even long-time residents take this drab, grey-green desert shrub for granted. The once ubiquitous sagebrush is vanishing in plain site, yet it rarely gets the attention of other imperiled landscapes. About half of the 500,000 square miles of sagebrush that once covered large expanses of North America still remains. Nevada loses an average of 200,000 acres of sagebrush every ...
