But factually, I think the patent office isn't in the same building anymore, they turned the old one into the einstein museum, so all it takes is a visit to the museum after a huge milkshake.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
@guitarplayer thanks for the article, it was interesting. 2millions is a lot of deers.
In the uk, does deer means red deers? or red deers and roe deers together?
It might take a of time to know what happens with the job. Possibly several months.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
Despite your most of noble of personalities it will no doubt make you feel better that same happened to me recently.
I am unsure about the deer but you can probably easily find out. The deer I see here all look the same. I am colour blind so would struggle to say if there is a hue of red there.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
I think there is one variety of colorblindness that makes it easier to distinguishe nuances of brown in the forest.
But Red deers and Roe deer have similar colors, so color blindness shouldn't interfere, Red deers are much bigger. Males weight around 150kg, while male roe deer are closer to 20kg.
But i think the article somehow said that it was mostly red deers. 2 millions is a lot of red deers. There are about 2500 in canton Berne.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
Yeah it would be the former, they are very large, more a size between a donkey and horse rather than a dog.
I can see fish that many people don’t see because they blend in the background for people with no colour blindness, in creeks or canals. this is what DW tells me.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
i suceeded in my theory exam for the hunting license. Big success!
Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
Well done too!
I suppose the theory exam is about conserving wildlife, so your grandchildren can hunt too.
I like wildlife to watch. Yesterday late in midday I saw a beautiful deer here in an already thawed meadow near the Alpine village I live in winter. The birds are coming back. This year was very mild and poor of snow.
What kind of wild lives in your forest?

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
the six subjects are: dogs, game knowledge, laws, nature conservation and protection, weapons, hunting techniques. I think the exams are mostly a way to keep people out of that activity. Other places do it by charging more money.
Big game are boars, deers, roe deer, chamois, there are also ducks and other birds that can be hunted. Owning the forest doesnt give me any special right regarding hunting. every hunter can hunt in the whole canton.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
I'll do it with my brother, he is a butcher.

Re: Smelly Swiss Dilettante
Maybe your brother has access to or can connect you to people who have unwanted freezers.
