| 520 | _a"Zonder geweer op jacht" by William J. Long is a collection of nature essays written in the early 20th century. It celebrates observing wildlife without gun or camera, blending fieldcraft, natural history, and quiet philosophy to reveal the daily lives and behaviors of animals in the North American wilderness. The opening of this collection lays out the author’s credo of “hunting without a gun” and then illustrates it through vivid encounters: deer using a lakeshore “playground” of running circles and quick turns; a vigilant big buck wordlessly ending the game; a child calmly accepted by curious deer; close paddles among moose, including a massive bull with velvet antlers; and a twilight scene where ducks lift off at a silent communal signal. Next comes a kingfisher “school,” with parents guarding a riverside burrow, enforcing fishing territories, and teaching fledglings to dive in a stocked practice pool before the young turn their lessons into playful contests. A portrait of the wildcat (bobcat) follows, stressing its unpredictability, patient fishing from logs, rumored whisker-lure tactics, and a striking anecdote of a stolen creel-net found high in a fir with the trapped thief inside. The section closes by turning to animal self‑medication, noting how people—from Native traditions to early Greek medicine—learned remedies by watching what sick animals sought in the wild.
