At the moment, I was under the ignorance that this was a normal hunt going on around me, but I later learned that this was part of a one-week state-endorsed campaign to cull 20% of the state black bear population. 700 bears will die because they live in the woods or their woods are being depleted by urban expansion. Something doesn't add up over here. I don't mean the numbers, I mean, the logic doesn't add up.....

Model of coded wire tag with numbers shown in comparison to the actual coded wire tag (1 millimeter length).
Coded wire tags are placed in the snout of some fingerling salmon. The coded wire tag has numbers laser etched on the tag.
When adult fish return, fish are checked for tag with metal detector. Information about the fish are taken (sex, length, species) and a section of the head removed for dissection of the tag at a later date.
When the tags are read, the information is placed in a data base that is available to numerous agencies.

One month done, mostly. These numbers mean nothing to me. I feel like Jon Snow. Apparently skis are parabolic-ish nowadays? Too poor to know better.
The numbers tell it all. I've used a shot like this before but this was just so perfect for this challenge and this was taken this evening on my deck!
I was told that the #s were used when they moved the temple.
Philae in Greek or Pilak in ancient Egyptian, meaning 'the end,' defined the southern most limit of Egypt. It was begun by Ptolemy II and completed by the Roman Emperors. The Temple was dedicated to the goddess Isis, the wife of Osiris and mother of Horus. These three characters dominate ancient Egyptian culture and their story possesses all the drama of a Shakespearian tragedy. The god Osiris is murdered and dismembered by his brother Seth. Isis searches for the fragments, collects them together and with her magic powers brings Osiris back to life. They then conceive the god Horus. Osiris becomes god of the under world and judge of the dead - who must answer to him for their deeds on Earth. Meanwhile Isis gives birth to Horus and protects the young god. Later when Horus is grown he avenges his father by defeating Seth in combat.
For centuries the temple complex was the holiest site for Isis worshippers. The temple was officially closed down in the 6th century A.D. by the Byzantine emperor Justinian. It was the last pagan temple to exist in the Mediterranean world. Philae was a seat of the Christian religion as well as of the ancient Egyptian faith. Ruins of a Christian church were still discovered, and more than one adytum bore traces of having been made to serve at different eras the purposes of a chapel of Osiris and of Christ. The Philae temple was converted into a church dedicated to the Virgin Mary, until that was closed by Muslim invaders in the 7th century.
Isis is a very important figure in the ancient world. She is associated with funeral rites but as the enchantress who resurrected Osiris and gave birth to Horus she is also the giver of life, a healer and protector of kings. She was known as 'Mother of God' and was represented with a throne on her head. During the Roman period her cult spread throughout Greece and the Roman Empire. There was even a temple dedicated to her in London.
The temple at Philae was nearly lost under water when the high Aswan dam was built in the 1960s. Fortunately the temple was rescued by a joint operation between the Egyptian government and UNESCO. In an engineering feat to rival the ancients the whole island was surrounded with a dam and the inside pumped dry. Then every stone block of the temple complex was labelled and removed later to be assembled, like a giant jigsaw puzzle, on the higher ground of Agilka island. The whole project took ten years and has saved one of Egypt's most beautiful temples from certain destruction.
