 Finding Shrooms With Infrared or Nightvision?

I read somewhere that shrooms give off heat, but theyre 90-92% water, so if its windy wont some of it evaporate and make it colder? anyways, i dont wanna waste money on a infrared rifle scope, but i have a gun and want one anyway, but anyways, back to the original question, would i be able to distinguish the shrooms from the field with infrared? has anyone tried nightvision?

Are you going to sneak up on them??
I feel a rifle is over kill if you are trying to make them submit.
A simple hand around stem and pull will work I have heard they are a nonviolent species it's those pan cyans you have to worry about the will attack you.
Anyway happy hunt Elmer.

ummm.. not sure if you caught what i was trying to say... i'd just take the scope and put it in my hand, not bringing any sort of firearm, but anyways, id be able to see the changes in temperatures in the ground and shrooms, or would i not... do they produce heat or not.. thats all i need to know, and if so, around how much... id be easy to find shrooms just by looking through a scope and finding the hottest zones or spots of earth..

I very much enjoy hunting as I'm sure many around here do. Morally and ethically wrong? By who's ethics? Many say the same thing about people using shrooms. Hunting is legal however. Don't like hunting? Don't hunt. Don't force your liberal views on me. :)>

Night vision scopes DO NOT pick up heat. They're either light amplification or infared receptive. Yes heat is infared, but not in the range (~800 nm) of night vision scopes, goggles, monoculars etc.

I'm not going to get into this now, but hunting is not morally or ethically wrong, it is human nature. Buying meat from a grocery store and thinking since you didn't kill i, its ok, is wrong. Being forced to depend on todays society and conveniences rather than living off the land the way it should be, is wrong. Helping destroy the world and its natural resources by supporting these conveniences is wrong.
Respectfully harvesting anything fromthe land for your own use is NOT wrong. Whether it be mushrooms, corn, or a deer, its not wrong.
If you want to continue this discussion, take it to OTD.

Just like you "Big bad hunters" do to the defenseless animals, no?
Hunting is wrong, I don't want to have this discussion on this thread, but I want my 2 cents worth. Humans are no better than animals, and don't give me your "free will" crap, you think we have free will? Open your eyes are read between the lines, we're just drones like any other animal, but programmed for different tasks.

that's why I'm vegan bro. I do want to get into this, cause it breaks my heart to hear people talking about killing animals. Respect nature man, and respectfully lizard king, I have zero respect for a stupid ass farmer who is fucking the land up and claiming it's "his", I have as much right as he does to be there picking shrooms, or just fucking around. I want to let some cattle out of their pens now, that'd be cool. But seriously, I hate when people try to lay that shit that humans are supposed to hunt, humans are supposed to be vegans or at least vegetarians nowadays, why eat meat and hurt animals when you dont have to in this day and age. It's been noted by countless doctors that a vegan diet is an excellent diet to hold to, especially with the improvement of health food stores spotting up all around the world now, its so incredibly easy.

oh and yeah, anyone with a half decent brain on their shoulders can go to a bookstore and check out wild edible foods in the wilderness, You CAN live off plants, mushrooms, etc without killing animals. Rather healthily too, again only if you have a semi decent intellect, which some of you hunters apparently do not have.

sorry again, keep thinking of small little things, but dont take my word about the edible plants mushrooms, etc, go to the bookstore and get it and try it yourself, I did, I lived 17 days on a section of the appalachian trail without losing any weight. You can do it too I'm sure lizard king.

golden teacher I have to admit thats pretty cool bout living in the woods and shit. but why the hell wouldnt you want to eat meat? And let me ask ya this did your diet include bugs?????maybe not but im pretty sure it did. so is eating bugs ok? any ways your also exploiting plants man so if your gonna take it half way might as well take it all the way to the extreme and just drink water. just my 2 cents. plus I HATE vegetables they taste like shit and have bad texture. not all most. anyways everyone else is rambling so im going to go on too. actually the point is your killing an animal so what. animals kill humans as well. I dont blame them its their nature. as it is ours to eat meat, and to do so you have to kill animals unless you want to live like a vulture. I do hate that most hunters waste a lot of the animal. I know some that dont even eat what they kill which is sick.....and more importantly when are people going to let people live how they want. i dont give a shit if you want to be a vegan.....

I just feel differently than you, I'm sorry.
I understand that we don'ty have to eat as much meat as we do, and I agree with alot that you say, but it is human nature to consume meat on occasions. I try not to eat much meat myself, I mainly eat fish and grains, sometimes I go days without eating meat.
I truley would like to live off the land one day, and I can't think of any way around hunting, nor would I want to. Hunting would be important not only as a food source, but as a tool and leather source. I would definately need leather hides for clothing and several other needs. I would also use the bone for tools, for example I am starting to learn how to flintknapp(make arrowheads) and the most important tools are a hammer billet made of antler, and a pressure flaker made from the tine of an antler. There are several reasons to hunt. Beisdes, I'm not your typical out for the sport hunter with thousands of dollars worth of equipment, I use a long bow I made myself from osuaga(and backed with sinew, commonly known as hide glue, another reason to hunt)
Anyways, I hear alot of what your saying, but I still feel the need to consume meat on occasionally. I don;t agree with commercial meat production, and I try to never eat store bought meat. I think its not only a waste of land to raise cattle, but also a cruel thing to do to a mass of animals so Americans can eat steak and cheesburgers at will. I try to hunt all the meat I consume, including fish I catch myself. I don't feel its a wrong thing to do, its is natural to me. If its your nature to be a vegan, do what you feel is natual to you, more power to you. I don;t have anything against vegans, I just choose not to live that way.

the longlost american dream i would say. Nahh more like the way it should be. But it will be nice to see my irs tax relief check come. I think it boils down to the ethics and morals "civilized" humans have come to adopt, these humans often not even realizing they too are just natural animals. What a fucking waste, what a huge joke this has become.

Of all of the animals in the entire animal kingdom, I fear none more than I fear humans. We are leading to our own demise. We are trashing our earth and destroying way too many species of animals, before they have time to regenerate their numbers. Humans alone have lead to the destruction of more species of animals than any other species in the history of the planet.
Some species die out over time, that is nature. As a species is unable to evolve to fit their environment, they may eventually just go extinct.
Humans for thousands of years were able to live at one with nature. Now they feel the need to detroy it. Kill animals such as snow leopards, foxes, beavers, snakes, crocodiles, and too many more only for their furs or skin too be used as a coat. In the past, nature has been able to stay at a dynamic equalibrium. All animals could live together without killing everything off. Producers were eaten by consumers, who were in turn eaten by carnivores. The consumer herbivores could regenerate fast enough to survive.
Humans feel the need to be the dominant species on this planet. Most of us have absolutely no care for wild animals, only ourselves. We believe in technology no matter what the technology destroys.
Humans, as a race, are doomed. I long for the day when we all go extinct to rid this planet of us. We are the only real monsters. We would be better off living from intincts like almost all other animals. I, however, have faith in mother nature. She has not made many mistakes thus far, and I am sure she wll correct this one. All I can do is help her out by trying my darndest to preserve the deminishing wildlife.
Did you know tht we are destroying our rainforests at the rate of about 1 football field per second? What gives humans the right to "own" land? It belongs to everyone, and everything. It is all of these things and more that lead me to hate humans. I do not hate the individual, but the species as a whole. I find peace in living an interacting with animals. Some day I just want to move to the most remote part of the planet and just live there in peace.
God I know nobody has probably read this entre post. I am sorry I went way off topic, but it is related to what you people have been saying about how hunting is bad. I feel that is is only because in todays age, we get our meat at the grocery store, we do not need to kill any extra animals and waste their flesh to get our jollies off. All you hunters should just admit it, you just enjoy feeling the power of being able to kill. You are trigger happy. You care about yourself and not the fact that you do more harm than good by hunting.
Oh well, I cannot stop you.
And I am also interested in knowing if mushrooms give off heat?
