![]() ![]() Foxes are generally very vocal, and therefore easy to record, while fishers are typically silent in order to better hunt their prey. But those noises are probably misidentified foxes, Roland Kays, curator of mammals at the New York State Museum, wrote in the New York Times. Internet forums say a fisher's blood curdling screams, let out in the dead of night, signal that the creature is about to attack. About that screamĪnother unusual characteristic of fisher cats is their piercing screams. (Cats have more to fear from coyotes, owls and cars.) The rumors are likely fueled by the fact that the fisher's range is expanding, so people who have never seen the elusive animals before are now seeing fishers in their yards ( and in some cases, trash cans). "I'm not aware of any, and I don't think there are any cases of fishers attacking humans," Joyce said, adding that while a fisher cat probably wouldn't think twice about eating a house cat if the opportunity presented itself, studies of fisher diets in human-dominated landscapes suggest your cat is probably safe. The fisher cat's reputation as an aggressive hunter has led to unfair and unfounded rumors that fisher cats attack and eat pets and even small children. "A fisher really doesn't have any boundaries in the size of the animal it's willing to attack," Scott McLellan, a wildlife biologist with the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife, told National Geographic. Researchers tracking lynx with radio collars occasionally found their subjects dead in a snowdrift, with little fisher-size bite marks along their necks and heads, National Geographic reported. In addition to fearlessly hunting porcupines, fishers can also take down lynx - predatory cats that are about twice the size of an average fisher. Although they may look fuzzy and cuddly, these small mammals are fearless hunters. ![]() In an unpublished study of 100 fisher skulls collected by hunters, Joyce found that about one in 10 skulls had quills embedded in them, suggesting the tough little creatures had survived at least one unfortunate quilling.įisher cats were once heavily hunted for their warm fur coats. While fishers don't have superpowers making them immune from quilling, they seem to be able to fend off infections from quill injuries that would kill other animals, Montana Public Radio reported. But the quills don't seem to bother the fishers much.įishers also don't seem to care if they get a quill to the face. However, fishers are sloppy eaters and will occasionally swallow a quill or two, Joyce said. Once the prey has died, the fisher will grasp the porcupine's face in its jaws and twist the prickly creature upside down to expose the belly, so the fisher can safely eat without getting quilled. Enough bites to the face, and the porcupine will eventually bleed out and die. As the porcupine tires out, the fisher will snap at the quilled animal's face. Fishers "run circles around to try to exhaust them," Joyce said. Related: Live Science talks 'Cannibalism' with author Bill Schuttīut the fisher's true dietary claim-to-fame is that it's one of the few animals that regularly attack and eat porcupines. ![]() The team speculated that the Pennsylvania population of fishers had grown so large so quickly that the animals were competing with each other for food and had grown aggressive toward one another. Of these fishers, 12 had bits of other fishers in their digestive tracts. The study's authors examined the stomach contents of 91 fishers, whose carcasses they had found in Pennsylvania. The animals also eat fruit, reptiles and amphibians, birds and bird eggs, other small mammals, and even each other, according to a 2017 study published in the journal BioOne Complete. In New England, for example, biologists have found that fisher cats seem to enjoy dining on gray squirrels ( Sciurus carolinensis) most often, Northern Woodlands magazine reported. ![]() Although "fisher cat" is a bit of a misnomer, it's not because the animals won't eat fish, Joyce said, but because they eat a lot of things and fish isn't usually at the top of the list. ![]()

One hundred years later Italian Astronomer Galileo used one of the first telescopes to observe the terminator and deduced from the uneven shadows of the Waning Crescent Phase that the Moon’s surface was pocked with craters and valleys and ridged with mountains. In the early 1500s Astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus developed a model of the Solar System where Earth and the other planets orbited around the Sun, and the Moon orbited around Earth. It wasn’t until the 16th century that our understanding of the Solar System evolved. He also believed the Moon was a translucent sphere that traveled in a perfect orbit around Earth. He reasoned, incorrectly however, that the Earth was fixed in space and that the Moon, Sun and Stars revolved around it. ![]() By observing the shadow of the Earth across the face of the Moon during a lunar eclipse, Aristotle reckoned that the Earth was also a sphere. Based on how the terminator curved across the surface of the Moon, he correctly surmised the Moon must be a sphere.Ī few centuries later, around 350 BC, Aristotle took Pythagoras observations even further. Around 500 BC Greek philosopher and astronomer Pythagoras carefully observed the narrow boundary line-the terminator-between the dark and light hemispheres of the Moon. The Greeks were among the first to take a scientific look at the Moon and her phases. What did he think it was? It’s not hard to imagine how the Moon became the source of many religions, myths and legends throughout the ages. ![]() Nothing on Earth was quite like this strange brilliant object arcing through the night sky. Imagine a Neanderthal peering out of his cave some dark summer night as the Full Moon rises above the horizon. The illustration below shows all eight main and minor Moon phases and where they occur in the lunar cycle. ![]() These interim phases are Waxing Crescent Moon, Waxing Gibbous Moon, Waning Gibbous Moon and Waning Crescent Moon. Unlike the main phases, these minor phases don’t happen at a specific time or luminosity, rather they describe the Moon’s phase for the entire time period between each main phase. The remaining four Moon phases occur at halfway points between the main phases. To learn more about the exact time of the Full Moon and the current Full Moon info, check out these Current Full Moon times. In reality, the exact moment of the Full Moon can be timed to the second. When people say “today is a Full Moon” it’s important to remember that doesn’t mean the Moon is full all day long, only that the Full Moon Phase occurs on this day. The First and Last Quarter phases happen when the Moon is exactly half illuminated, with 50-percent luminosity. The New Moon Phase occurs when the Moon is completely dark with zero-percent luminosity, while the Full Moon Phase is completely bright with 100-percent luminosity. These phases occur at very specific times and are measured by both the Moon’s luminosity and how far along the Moon is in its orbit around Earth. The four main Moon phases in order are the New Moon, First Quarter Moon, Full Moon and Last Quarter Moon. The illustration is set to your computer’s clock and therefore gives you an accurate reading for your own particular time zone. The illustration above shows the range of illumination for today – August 04, 2021. And while the changes may seem slow, on any given day the amount of Moon illuminated by the Sun can vary by as much as 10-percent.

Designed to replace the 9x19mm Parabellum, the 5.7x28mm is aīottlenecked cartridge similar to the 22 Hornet or 22 K-Hornet with a long, pointed bullet. 224-inch-diameter bullets like other 22 centerfires. The “5.7” part of the name might fool you since this does not use a. In our opinion, we believe there are significant reasons not to.Īccording to the Shooters Bible Guide to Cartridges, FN Herstal of Belgium started the development of the 5.7x28mm in 1986 as a sub-machine gun round for the FN P90 personal defense weapon (PDW) and FN Five-seveN pistol. Down the road, it will certainly be interesting to compare a selection of uppers against each other, and well continue to pit guns in alternate AR chamberings, but for now, we want to gauge whether wed plunk down $600 to $700 after taxes for the AR57 PDW Upper. It includes an AR57 Flash suppressor with standard 1⁄2X28mm threads), a custom pistol grip with battery and accessory compartment, M4 Carbine 6-position stock, and four AR57 50-round magazines. The whole carbine weighs 7.45 pounds and is 33 inches long with a 16.04-inch standard barrel. The PDW upper was attached to a CMMG Model 4SA lower, which lists for $296 from CMMG a whole-gun-to-gun basis, a new 57Center AR57A1 PDW Carbine costs $1099. New AR57 PDW Upper units are available from the company or from Brownells for $696. The AR57 PDW Upper came to us via Collectors Firearms in Houston (which listed the used 5.7X28mm upper for $550. We recently pitted once such device, the 57Centers piston-driven AR57 PDW Upper in 5.7X28mm, to three previously tested guns that were highly rated, the direct-impingement Stag Arms Model 2T 223 Rem/5.56x45mm NATO, $1125, Smith & Wessons M&P 15-22 No. The uppers usually cost slightly more than half the price of a complete gun, and they snap onto AR lowers, which gives owners a choice of cartridges to shoot on a given day. These chamberings appear in dozens of rifles and dozens of replacement uppers. The evolution of the AR-15 continues apace, with a host of manufacturers building out the 223 Rem/5.56mm modular-rifle concept to a bevy of cartridges that offer more power (6.8 SPC, 30 Carbine) or cheaper operation (22 LR, 9mm). ![]() ![]() ![]() Information for producers and importers (The OPEN Foundation).Registration (W)EEE Register (National WEEE register).Recast of the WEEE Directive (European Commission).Recast of the RoHS Directive (European Commission).Questions relating to this article?

What is happening, which I hypothesize might happen with very, very fast download speeds, is the torrent accumulates a small (less than 1 MiB) discrepancy between the stated % complete and the actual amount (usually in KiB) left, and doing what I said forces it to realize this and readjust itself. Torrent is at 99.9% and also shows 512 KiB are left to download (assuming you show the "Remaining" column)… Stop, Force Re-Check, Start, it "resynchronizes" and now shows only 64 KiB remaining, at which point it downloads those final 64 KiB and terminates successfully. Here's a made up example that nonetheless resembles a situation I've had a few times, albeit not necessarily with the same numbers: Out of all the times I've had a torrent stop at 99.x%, far more often than not it's not because pieces are missing, it's because the torrent needs to be "recalibrated", so to speak.
