Not quite so 'convenient' than if it had done it on the drive at home, eh?
Often a good idea to secure the 'lost property' guys at a discreet distance from the 'surgery' once they've done their bit; as Stalin mused, "Trust is good... control, better..."
Yes, or the kitchen floor.I only let them watch the gralloch if I've had to use them at last light to find a runner in cover, then they get a bit of heart - if there's any left.
Love the quote though.

Scum utter scum !! You sir are the reason for all the ills in the world
Google 6110PF Showa and it will come up.
I have no knowledge of them at this stage myself But we will be trialling them at some point and I will be looking for info on the bio-degradability.

A Western Journalist asked Boris Yeltsin in those trying economic days how he felt the emerging Russian economy was doing:

Love the quote though.
Yeltsin: "Good"
A short silence ensued, then the journalist prompted the President
"Would you care to expand on your answer, Sir?"
Yeltsin replied: "Not Good"...

I wear them on arrival at the carcass. I'm involved in a survey by Public Health England so currently use the gloves which they provide as part of their sample collecting kits.
Less so these days but I have had allergic reactions to deer blood so I wear gloves partly to avoid that risk and partly for cleanliness: transferring blood to a firearm isn't the best idea.

I wonder if they will be like some tea bags with a small proportion of plastic which obviously doesn't decompose and ends up in your compost

What sort of reaction do you guys have to blood out of interest .
Salivation, and other signs associated with hunger.
None, until recently when "roe itch" seems to have kicked off.
Haven't noticed it with muntjac blood yet, but will now pay more attention as to whether it does occur.

Any blood makes my hands itch like billyo. Gloves are a must for me.

On my first guided stalk in Scotland, too many years ago to count, Scotty (he's on here somewhere I think) told me about the time the knife slipped, he opened his wrist and nearly bled out before the helo out of Fort William could locate him and his Spanish client on the hill. He used a butcher's safety glove on his left hand under heavy duty reusable gauntlet style rubber gloves on both hands. I have done the same since, and kept both in my gralloch kit bag (knife, string to tie off the gut, plastic bags for any offal that can be saved, butcher's glove, rubber gloves, little hooks for the small deer legs to hang the deer and a drag/suspension rope), even for bunnies and munties.
Having worked in Pathology for over 30 years then wearing nitrile gloves is second nature to me. The highest quality ones I have ever used were made/Called Best they are strong and stretchy. For serious work I would recommend the thicker long cuff nitriles which mortuary staff use. They are very robust.
Can't believe the prices charged they are more like £3 a box or less to the NHS.
Also its a good idea to carry a small bottle of handsanitizer in youe stalking gear, I have several Purell 15ml bottlesin neoprene sleves with belt clips, they were freebees at trade shows and very handy in the current lockdown conditions.

I cut a stillborn lamb up last night for a fox trap and it was still covered in glupe from the birth. I’d left my nitrile gloves in the truck so the shepherd gave me some black parlour/ milking gloves from mole valley stores. Brilliant, a bit more expensive but unlike the nitrile ones they hadn’t split and my hands were still clean when I took them off!
Not having a go but that is illegal as animal waste has to be disposed of, not used as bait, so perhaps don’t post about it on here (I’ve deleted it from the quote).
you can use wild animals such as rabbits but not domestic animal waste
