Caccia con Coscienza nel Parco del Gran Sasso: Tradizione e Conservazione tra le Cime
Caratteristiche geografiche e naturali della regione dal punto di vista venatorio
Il Parco Nazionale del Gran Sasso e Monti della Laga, in Abruzzo, è dominato dal massiccio del Gran Sasso d’Italia (2.912 m), con paesaggi che spaziano da valli glaciali come la Valle del Fino a boschi di faggio e praterie d’alta quota. L’area ospita specie adattate all’ambiente alpino: camosci , cervi nobili , cinghiali , lepri variabili e rapaci come il biancone . I laghi di Pilato e le sorgenti del fiume Tirino completano un ecosistema unico.
Demografia dei Cacciatori: Un Focus su Numero, Età, Sesso
In Abruzzo sono registrati ~28.000 cacciatori, con oltre 6.000 concentrati nella provincia dell’Aquila, cuore del Parco. La regione attira anche cacciatori laziali e marchigiani, soprattutto per la caccia al camoscio e al cervo.
Tipologie di Caccia e Specie Presenti
Caccia al Camoscio : Praticata in alta quota (1.800–2.500 m), richiede abilità alpina e conoscenza dei sentieri.
Caccia al Cervo : Focalizzata nelle foreste di faggio durante il bramito (settembre-ottobre).
Caccia al Cinghiale : Organizzata in braccata con segugi nelle valli boschive.
Caccia alla Lepre Variabile : Appostamenti discreti in radure e pascoli.
Stagioni Venatorie
Camoscio : 15 settembre – 15 dicembre (max 1 capo/anno, con permesso speciale).
Cervo : 15 settembre – 31 ottobre (solo maschi adulti).
Cinghiale : 1 ottobre – 31 gennaio (divieto notturno nel Parco).
Lepre Variabile : 1 ottobre – 30 novembre (max 3 esemplari/giorno).
Associazioni e Club Locali
Federcaccia Abruzzo : Organizza battute coordinate e corsi di orientamento in montagna.
Associazione Cacciatori Gran Sasso : Promuove progetti di monitoraggio faunistico e ripopolamento.
Guide Alpine : Collaborano con cacciatori per escursioni tecniche (es. Rifugio Fonte Vetica ).
Legislazione Regionale
Licenze : Obbligo di esame venatorio, tesserino regionale e assicurazione RC.
Limiti : 1 camoscio, 2 cervi e 3 cinghiali per stagione.
Aree Protette : Caccia vietata nelle zone centrali del Parco e nelle ZPS (es. Sito "Monti della Laga").
Armi : Calibro minimo 6.5x55 mm per ungulati; divieto di richiami elettroacustici.
Tradizioni Venatorie Regionali: Riti, Usi e Cultura Locale della Caccia
Il "Grido del Cacciatore" : Prima dell’alba, i cacciatori locali usano un richiamo vocale tradizionale, il "grido della civetta" , per mimetizzarsi con i suoni notturni e avvicinare la selvaggina. Questa pratica, tramandata oralmente, è ancora insegnata nelle scuole di caccia della zona.
La Benedizione delle Armi : Nelle chiese di montagna come quella di Santa Maria di Pietraquaria (L’Aquila), ogni settembre si celebra la benedizione dei fucili, un rito che invoca protezione e rispetto per la natura.
La "Caccia alla Bracconiera" : Un metodo tradizionale per la lepre variabile, che prevede l’uso di cani da seguita abruzzesi (razza locale) e reti di canapa tessute a mano, oggi sostituite da materiali moderni ma ancora simbolo di identità.
Il Banchetto del Bramito : Durante il periodo del bramito del cervo, i cacciatori organizzano cene comunitarie nei rifugi, dove si cucina il "brodo di camoscio" con erbe spontanee (come il nepetella) e si raccontano storie di imprese venatorie.
Il Trofeo "Corni di Luna" : Nella valle del Tirino, i corni dei cervi abbattuti vengono esposti durante la Festa della Transumanza (maggio), celebrando il legame tra pastorizia e caccia.
L’Arte del "Corno Annunciato" : I cacciatori più anziani decorano i corni degli ungulati con intagli che rappresentano la data e il luogo della caccia, creando veri e propri diari storici esposti nei musei locali.
Fatti Sorprendenti e Curiosità: Cosa Rende Unica la Caccia in Questa Regione
Il camoscio appenninico, reintrodotto negli anni ’90, è oggi simbolo del Parco.
Nel 1800, il Gran Sasso era riserva di caccia dei Borbone di Napoli, come testimoniato da documenti d’archivio.
Nel 2022, un progetto LIFE ha monitorato il lupo appenninico nella Valle del Fino, evidenziando la sua convivenza con l’attività venatoria.
Il Parco del Gran Sasso non è solo un territorio di caccia, ma un patrimonio vivo dove ogni passo del cacciatore si intreccia con la storia millenaria di queste montagne. Qui, tra i sentieri che sfidano il cielo e i boschi secolari, l’attività venatoria diventa un atto di rispetto: ogni colpo è misurato, ogni preda è onorata. I cacciatori, custodi inconsapevoli di un equilibrio fragile, contribuiscono a mantenere vivo un ciclo naturale che affonda le radici nell’epoca dei Borbone. Perché nel Gran Sasso, la vera vittoria non è il trofeo appeso alla parete, ma la consapevolezza di aver camminato tra le cime senza lasciare traccia — se non quella del proprio passaggio discreto, da ospite privilegiato di una terra che ancora oggi detta le regole.

Caccia con Coscienza nello Stelvio: Custodire l’Alpe, Inseguire il Camoscio
Caratteristiche geografiche e naturali della regione dal punto di vista venatorio
Il Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio, tra Lombardia, Trentino-Alto Adige e Svizzera, è il più grande parco italiano. Con vette oltre i 3.900 m (Ortles), ghiacciai, e valli come la Valtellina e la Val Venosta, offre habitat alpini estremi. I boschi di larici e pascoli d’alta quota ospitano fauna unica: camosci , stambecchi , cervi rossi , pernici bianche e rapaci come il gipeto barbut .
Demografia dei Cacciatori: Un Focus su Numero, Età, Sesso
Nelle province di Sondrio, Bolzano e Trento sono registrati ~12.000 cacciatori, con un terzo attivo nell’area del Parco. La regione attira anche cacciatori svizzeri e tedeschi, soprattutto per la caccia al camoscio.
Tipologie di Caccia e Specie Presenti
Caccia al Camoscio : Praticata in alta quota (2.000–3.500 m), richiede resistenza fisica e conoscenza del terreno.
Caccia allo Stambecco : Riservata a zone rocciose con permessi speciali (max 1 capo/anno).
Caccia al Cervo Rosso : Focalizzata nelle foreste della Valtellina durante il bramito (settembre).
Caccia alla Pernice Bianca : Appostamenti discreti nell’alta Val Venosta.
Stagioni Venatorie

Limiti : 1 camoscio, 1 stambecco (solo con quota provinciale), e 2 cervi rossi per stagione.
Aree Protette : Caccia vietata nelle zone centrali del Parco e nelle ZPS (es. Sito "Ortles-Cevedale").
Armi : Calibro minimo 7x64 mm per ungulati; divieto di richiami elettroacustici.
Tradizioni Venatorie Regionali: Riti, Usi e Cultura Locale della Caccia
La cultura locale lega la caccia ai rifugi alpini e ai piatti tradizionali. Il "camoscio in salmì" e gli "gnocchi di cervo" sono specialità. La Festa del Cacciatore a Bormio (ottobre) celebra l’attività con mostre di trofei e degustazioni di formaggi alpini.
Fatti Sorprendenti e Curiosità: Cosa Rende Unica la Caccia in Questa Regione
Il Parco dello Stelvio ospita il gipeto barbuto , reintrodotta negli anni ’90 dopo 100 anni di estinzione.
Nel 1800, l’imperatore Francesco Giuseppe organizzava battute di caccia nell’area, come documentato nell’Archivio di Stato di Vienna.
Nel 2023, un progetto LIFE ha monitorato il lupo appenninico in Valchiavenna, evidenziando la sua espansione verso le Alpi.
Il Parco dello Stelvio rappresenta una sintesi unica tra sfida alpina e rispetto ambientale. Qui, tra vette imponenti e silenzi ancestrali, la caccia diventa un’esperienza che richiede preparazione, conoscenza del territorio e consapevolezza delle regole. I cacciatori, oltre a inseguire camosci e cervi rossi, diventano custodi di un ecosistema fragile, dove progetti di reintroduzione e monitoraggio (come quello del gipeto) testimoniano l’equilibrio possibile tra attività venatoria e conservazione. Per vivere questa avventura in modo autentico, affidarsi alle guide locali e alle associazioni come Federcaccia Lombardia non è solo una scelta pratica, ma un atto di rispetto verso una terra che, ancora oggi, racconta storie di uomini e montagne.

Known for its vast steppes, majestic mountains, and diverse wildlife, this region has become a sought-after destination for hunters seeking adventure and authenticity.
Hunting Seasons in Bayankhongor: When to Hunt Argali, Ibex, and Gazelles
Bayankhongor is home to a wide variety of game species, many of which are native to Mongolia’s arid and semi-arid ecosystems. Among the most popular targets for hunters are:
Argali Sheep (Ovis ammon):
The argali, or Marco Polo sheep, is one of the largest wild sheep species in the world and a prized trophy for international hunters. With their impressive spiral horns and elusive nature, these animals are often found in the high-altitude regions of the Altai Mountains within Bayankhongor. Hunting argali requires skill and patience, as they inhabit remote and challenging terrains.
Siberian Ibex (Capra sibirica):
Another iconic mountain-dwelling species, the Siberian ibex, is known for its agility and striking curved horns. These animals thrive in the rocky slopes and cliffs of Bayankhongor’s mountain ranges, making them a rewarding yet demanding hunt.
Mongolian Gazelle (Procapra gutturosa):
For those who prefer open plains over steep mountains, the Mongolian gazelle offers an exhilarating pursuit across the province’s expansive steppes. These graceful antelopes are known for their speed and keen senses, providing a true test of a hunter’s marksmanship.
Red Deer (Cervus elaphus):
Red deer can be found in the forested areas and river valleys of Bayankhongor. Their distinctive antlers and powerful build make them a favorite among trophy hunters.
Foxes and Wolves:
Predatory species like the red fox and gray wolf are also commonly hunted in the region, both for sport and to manage populations that may threaten livestock or other wildlife.
Each of these species plays a vital role in the local ecosystem, and sustainable hunting practices are essential to maintaining the delicate balance of Bayankhongor’s environment.
The Cultural Heritage of Hunting in Bayankhongor: A Connection to Nomadic Traditions
The appeal of hunting in Bayankhongor lies not only in the diversity of game but also in the challenge each species presents. Whether it’s scaling treacherous peaks to spot an argali or stalking a wary gazelle across endless plains, every hunt tells a story of perseverance and respect for nature.
Additionally, the cultural significance of these animals adds depth to the experience. Many nomadic herders in Bayankhongor view wildlife as part of their shared heritage, and engaging in ethical hunting fosters mutual understanding between visitors and locals. Beyond the thrill of the chase, Bayankhongor invites exploration of its archaeological sites, hot springs, and stunning natural wonders, adding layers of discovery to any hunting expedition.

THE SARDINE RACE IN DURBAN is one of the most exciting natural phenomena in the world.
🗓 Every year from May to July, a real underwater show unfolds off the coast of South Africa - the Sardine Run, or Sardine Race.
ℹ️ The Sardine Run is not just a fish migration. It is a real ocean spectacle, which in terms of scale and spectacle is compared to the Great Antelope Migration in the Serengeti.
MILLIONS of sardines move from south to north, caught by the waters of the cold Benguela Current and the warm Mozambique Current.
📈 Sardines make their way over 1000 km long, forming a school more than 15 km long, 1.5 km wide and up to 40 m deep.
Dolphins, sharks, seabirds, whales and even seals hunt for sardines. The so-called "bait balls" look especially impressive - 🟠 dense balls of sardines that form when they are surrounded by predators. This is a rare opportunity to see how wildlife works in its pristine harmony and cruel beauty.
🔭 You can watch the sardine race from a boat, from the air - from a helicopter, and also as part of special diving expeditions.
For photographers and lovers of the underwater world - this is a ✨ dream come true.
🏖 After the exciting emotions of the sardine race, we suggest relaxing and spending a few days in magnificent Cape Town. Table Mountain, Cape of Good Hope, 5-star hotels, colonial luxury and much more!

Tarkine Wilderness Hunting: Preserving Traditions in Australia’s Last Frontier. Demographics, Legislation System, Associations and Clubs, Laws and Hunting Seasons
Nestured in the northwest corner of Tasmania, the Tarkine region spans an impressive 477,000 hectares, making it one of Australia's largest temperate rainforests. This ancient wilderness presents unique hunting opportunities shaped by its distinctive geography and climate. The region features a diverse landscape ranging from rugged coastal cliffs to dense rainforest and open button grass plains, creating varied habitats that support rich wildlife populations.
The Tarkine's location at latitude 41° South creates a cool temperate climate with high rainfall, averaging 1500-2000mm annually. This consistent moisture nourishes the dense vegetation that provides excellent cover for game animals. The region's elevation varies from sea level to approximately 600 meters, creating distinct microclimates that influence animal behavior and movement patterns. Hunters particularly appreciate the numerous river systems and waterways that serve as natural pathways through the dense forest, guiding wildlife movement and providing strategic hunting locations.
The soil composition, largely derived from ancient sediments, supports a variety of plant species that form the foundation of the local ecosystem. The combination of nutrient-rich soils and abundant water sources creates ideal conditions for both native wildlife and introduced species that have become established in the region. These environmental factors make the Tarkine not just a conservation area but also a prime location for experienced hunters seeking challenging and rewarding experiences.
Hunter Demographics and Community Presence
Approximately 2,500 licensed hunters pursue game annually in Tasmania's Northwest region, including the Tarkine. Most are local residents from nearby towns like Burnie and Devonport. The demographic shows a balanced age distribution, with a notable increase in female participation (now 15% of hunters). Many hunters come from multi-generational hunting families, contributing significantly to the local economy through hunting-related expenditures.
Unique Hunting Characteristics
The Tarkine presents distinct challenges: dense rainforest limits visibility, requiring specialized stalking techniques and exceptional patience. Hunters often remain motionless for hours, adapting to frequent fog and microclimate variations. The rugged terrain demands physical fitness and modified equipment choices, with shorter firearms proving more practical than long-range rifles.
Hunting Opportunities and Wildlife Diversity
Fallow deer are the primary quarry, with populations averaging 5-7 animals per square kilometer. Red deer occupy more open areas, while wild boar thrive near water sources. Brushtail possums and Bennett's wallabies also inhabit the region but require special permits for hunting. Successful hunters combine various techniques, adapting to daily weather conditions and animal behavior patterns.
Seasonal Hunting Patterns and Regulations
Fallow deer hunting runs from February to April, with bag limits of two bucks per hunter. Wild boar hunting operates year-round under monthly quotas, while wallaby hunting is restricted to winter months (June-August) to protect breeding populations. Weather conditions significantly influence hunting success, with overcast days providing optimal stalking opportunities.
Hunter Organizations and Community Networks
The North West Branch of the Sporting Shooters Association of Australia (SSAA) coordinates hunting activities, managing access permits and conducting education workshops. Local clubs like Circular Head Game Council maintain records of game observations and organize events that foster community connections among hunters. These organizations collaborate with landowners and conservation authorities on wildlife management initiatives.
Legal Framework and Regulatory Requirements
Tarkine hunting requires a current Firearms License, Game License ($120 annually), and mandatory "Game Harvest Return" reporting within 48 hours. Specific regulations address environmental protection, including buffer zones around endangered species habitats and waterways. Recent changes introduced electronic tagging systems for harvested game, with violations potentially resulting in substantial fines and license suspension.
Cultural Heritage and Hunting Traditions
Modern hunting practices in Tarkine blend Aboriginal tracking knowledge with contemporary methods. Unique cultural traditions persist, such as sharing the first successful harvest with community elders. Annual gatherings feature ceremonies acknowledging both Aboriginal and pioneer heritage, preserving the region's rich hunting legacy while adapting to modern conservation requirements.
Interesting Hunting Insights
DNA studies reveal the fallow deer population contains genetic markers from multiple subspecies, explaining their impressive antler spreads. Wild boar create "mud highways" through the forest, forming reliable hunting routes during wet seasons. The region also hosts "ghost herds" – nocturnal fallow deer groups rarely seen during daylight, challenging even experienced hunters with success rates below 0.5%.

Sükhbaatar Province: Demographics, Associations and Clubs, Laws and Hunting
Seasons, Legislation
Sükhbaatar Province, located in the northeastern part of Mongolia, bordering Russia, offers some of the most exciting and challenging hunting opportunities in the country. Known for its vast steppes, rugged mountains, and diverse wildlife, this region attracts both local and international hunters. Whether you're an experienced hunter or a novice looking for adventure, Sükhbaatar offers a unique and rewarding experience.
Sükhbaatar Province is home to a variety of wildlife, making it a prime hunting destination. Among the most sought-after species are the argali sheep (wild sheep) and mountain goats.
Argali Sheep: A massive wild sheep, known for its large, curved horns, argali is one of the most prized trophies for hunters. These animals are typically found in the mountainous areas of the province and are considered a symbol of strength and resilience.
Mountain Goat: With its impressive straight horns, the mountain goat is another sought-after species in Sükhbaatar. These animals live in the rocky, steep terrain, which provides a challenging environment for hunters.
When to Hunt Argali, Mountain Goats, and Predators
The hunting season for argali sheep and mountain goats typically runs from September to November. This is the best time to hunt these species, as they are most active and easier to track in the cooler months. The weather conditions during this period are also favorable, providing hunters with better visibility and easier access to remote areas.
For predators like wolves and foxes, hunting is possible year-round. However, many hunters prefer winter, as the snow makes tracking and locating these animals much more manageable.
Other species that hunters pursue include wolves, foxes, hares, and various bird species. Wolves and foxes are popular year-round targets, while hunting for argali and mountain goats is typically reserved for the fall months.
The number of local hunters in Sükhbaatar is around 300, but the region has seen an increase in foreign hunters in recent years. The allure of hunting in such a remote and pristine environment has drawn hunters from Europe, Asia, and beyond. This influx of international hunters not only contributes to the local economy but also helps raise awareness of the region's conservation efforts.
The Allure of Sükhbaatar: Adventure and Solitude for Hunters in Northeastern Mongolia
What makes Sükhbaatar Province particularly unique is the diverse landscape that provides both an aesthetic and challenging hunting environment. The vast steppe, interspersed with rugged mountain ranges, offers a variety of terrains where hunters can test their skills. Additionally, the relatively low human population and minimal industrial development ensure that hunters experience pristine, unspoiled nature.
The region also boasts a rich cultural history and traditional hunting methods that make hunting here a truly immersive experience. The respect for local customs and the deep connection with nature adds a layer of authenticity that hunters can appreciate.

Hedmark, located in southeastern Norway, is a hunter’s paradise characterized by its vast forests, rolling hills, and numerous lakes. The region spans over 27,000 square kilometers, making it one of the largest counties in Norway. Key features include forests (dense boreal forests dominate the landscape, providing excellent cover for game animals like moose (Alces alces ) and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus)); lakes and rivers (with over 3,000 lakes, Hedmark offers abundant waterfowl hunting opportunities. Notable bodies include Lake Mjøsa, Norway’s largest lake); mountainous terrain (the eastern border with Sweden includes higher elevations, ideal for stalking large game); climate (cold winters and mild summers create an environment where species like grouse thrive); the combination of diverse habitats and low human population density makes Hedmark one of Norway’s premier hunting destinations.
Hunter Demographics: Understanding the People and Communities Behind the Sport

Tasmanian Highlands Hunting: Chasing Trophy Game in Untamed Wilderness. Legislation System, Associations and Clubs, Laws and Seasons
The Tasmanian Highlands, located in the heart of Australia’s island state of Tasmania, offer a unique and rugged hunting experience. Known for their pristine wilderness, dramatic landscapes, and diverse wildlife, the Highlands are a prime destination for hunters seeking adventure and challenge.
1. Geographical and Natural Features of the Tasmanian Highlands
The Tasmanian Highlands are characterized by their alpine terrain, dense forests, and expansive moorlands. The region is part of the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area, which is renowned for its untouched natural beauty. The Highlands feature a mix of temperate rainforests, buttongrass plains, and rugged mountain ranges, including the iconic Cradle Mountain and the Central Plateau.
For hunters, the terrain offers both opportunities and challenges. The dense vegetation and steep slopes require physical endurance and navigational skills, while the open moorlands provide excellent visibility for spotting game. The region’s isolation and harsh weather conditions, including sudden snowfalls and strong winds, add to the thrill of the hunt.
2. Hunters and Demographics of the Region
Hunting is a popular activity in Tasmania, with an estimated 20,000 licensed hunters across the state. While exact figures for the Tasmanian Highlands are not readily available, the region attracts a significant number of hunters due to its abundant wildlife and remote location. The demographic of hunters in Tasmania is diverse, ranging from local Tasmanians to interstate and international visitors. Many hunters are drawn to the Highlands for the opportunity to hunt species that are unique to the region.
3. Unique Aspects of Hunting in the Tasmanian Highlands
Hunting in the Tasmanian Highlands is distinct from other regions due to its isolation and the unique behavior of its wildlife. The animals here are less accustomed to human presence, making them more challenging to hunt. Additionally, the region’s unpredictable weather and rugged terrain require hunters to be well-prepared and self-sufficient.
4. Types of Hunting and Game Species in the Region
The Tasmanian Highlands are home to a variety of game species, making it a versatile hunting destination. The most sought-after animals include:
Fallow Deer: Introduced to Tasmania in the 19th century, fallow deer are now widespread in the Highlands. They are prized for their meat and antlers.
Wild Boar: Feral pigs are common in the region and provide a challenging hunt due to their intelligence and adaptability.
Wallabies and Bennett’s Kangaroos: These marsupials are abundant and offer a unique hunting experience.
Duck and Quail: Waterfowl hunting is popular in the wetlands and rivers of the Highlands.
Hunting methods vary depending on the species and terrain. Spot-and-stalk is commonly used for deer and wallabies, while still hunting and driven hunts are preferred for wild boar. Waterfowl hunting typically involves the use of decoys and blinds.
5. Hunting Seasons in the Tasmanian Highlands
Hunting seasons in Tasmania are strictly regulated to ensure sustainable wildlife management. The open season for fallow deer typically runs from late February to early April, while wild boar can be hunted year-round due to their status as a pest species. Waterfowl hunting is permitted during specific periods, usually from March to June, to coincide with migratory patterns.
It is essential for hunters to check the latest regulations and obtain the necessary permits before planning their trip. The Tasmanian Government’s Department of Primary Industries, Parks, Water, and Environment (DPIPWE) provides up-to-date information on hunting seasons and restrictions.
6. Hunting Clubs and Associations in the Region
Tasmania has a strong hunting community, with several clubs and associations dedicated to promoting responsible hunting and conservation. Notable organizations include:
Tasmanian Deer Society: Focused on fallow deer hunting and conservation.
Tasmanian Field & Game Association: Specializes in waterfowl and upland game hunting.
Australian Deer Association (Tasmania Branch): Advocates for sustainable deer hunting practices.
These organizations offer resources, training, and events for hunters, making them valuable for both novice and experienced hunters.
7. Hunting Legislation in the Tasmanian Highlands
Hunting in Tasmania is governed by strict laws designed to protect wildlife and ensure ethical hunting practices. Key regulations include:
Licensing: All hunters must possess a valid firearms license and game license.
Bag Limits: Limits are imposed on the number of animals that can be harvested to prevent overhunting.
Protected Areas: Hunting is prohibited in national parks and World Heritage Areas, except for specific pest control programs.
Weapon Restrictions: The use of certain firearms and ammunition is regulated to ensure humane kills.
Hunters are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the full range of regulations to avoid penalties and contribute to conservation efforts.

Mountain hunting in 🇿🇦 South Africa?
A target at 500, 600, 700 meters and even further?
Yes!
If these are the green hills of the Eastern Cape province and hunting wild pigs.
👍 A very interesting hunting format - tracking from afar, and then sneaking up on the mountains and, if possible, a long-range shot.
1️⃣ First, traditionally drive up by car, 2️⃣ then climb higher, find a comfortable position and 3️⃣ binoculars neighboring hills. Telescopes were very useful. Now is the most active time - the rut of wild pigs. No need for bait, ambush near water - this is unnecessary now. All the action is in the mountains and a patient hunter will not miss it!
👉 It is worth noting that the trophies of foothill pigs are excellent: the size is impressive, the weight is under 80-90 kg - this is not a warthog (!), but almost a bushpig. The fangs are also decent.
The number of trophies for a 5-day tour is from several to several dozen. Depends on desire and possibilities.
👐 Who wants to spend a great vacation in the most beautiful and unusual places of already familiar destinations - our most confident recommendations!

This area, part of the Great Dividing Range, is a haven for hunters seeking adventure, trophy game, and a deep connection to wilderness. Below, we explore the essentials of hunting in this iconic Australian alpine environment.
1. Geographic and Ecological Hunting Advantages
The Victorian Alps span over 1 million hectares, dominated by the Alpine National Park and peaks like Mount Bogong (1,986m) and Mount Feathertop (1,922m). Key features include:
Diverse Habitats : Alpine meadows, snow gum woodlands, and fern-filled valleys provide cover for game.
Waterways : The Snowy River and Delatite River attract waterfowl and support thriving ecosystems.
Seasonal Shifts : Summer offers lush trails, while winter snow creates challenging but rewarding conditions.
The region’s elevation (up to 2,000m) and varied terrain make it ideal for species like sambar deer, which thrive in dense thickets, and chamois, introduced in the 1930s.
2. Hunter Demographics: A Growing Community
Approximately 100,000 licensed hunters in Victoria (2023 SSAA data) frequent the Alpine region. Key insights:

Urban Influence : 60% of hunters are from Melbourne (3-hour drive), with weekend trips common.
Trends : Bow hunting (+20% since 2020) and youth engagement via mentored programs are growing.
3. Unique Hunting Challenges
Terrain : Steep slopes, hidden gullies, and thick bush demand fitness and navigation skills.
Weather : Rapid changes—snowstorms in autumn, fog in valleys—require layered gear.
Strategy : Dawn glassing for sambar, trail cameras for pigs, and horseback access to remote zones.
4. Game Species and Hunting Styles
Big Game :
Sambar Deer : Prized for trophy antlers; hunted via spot-and-stalk or tree stands.
Chamois : Agile mountain dwellers requiring expert stalking.
Wild Pigs : Year-round pest control hunts with dogs or bows.

6. Clubs and Organizations

Alpine Hunting Club : Organizes guided trips and safety workshops.
SSAA Victoria : Advocates for hunters’ rights and firearm safety training.
7. Legal Requirements
Licenses : $85 annual game license (Victoria); interstate hunters need permits.
Firearms : Bolt-action rifles (e.g., .308 Winchester) are standard; bows require certification.
Restrictions : No hunting in national parks; drones banned for game spotting.
8. Cultural and Historical Traditions
Indigenous Heritage : The Gunai/Kurnai people historically hunted the Alps’ fauna sustainably.
Modern Ethics : “Fair chase” principles dominate, with minimal use of baits or calls.
Events : The High Country Deer Hunt (May) combines competition and camaraderie.
9. Fascinating Facts
Sambar Dynasty : The Alpine region hosts Australia’s largest free-roaming sambar population, introduced in the 1860s.
Chamois Legacy : Imported from Austria in 1936, they’re now a prized alpine trophy.
Conservation Link : Hunters fund projects like the Alpine Peatlands Restoration through license fees.

Discover Bulgan Province: Northern Mongolia with unique species, Demographics, Associations and Clubs, Laws and Hunting Seasons
Nestled in the northern part of Mongolia, Bulgan Province is a region of rolling hills, dense forests, and pristine rivers. Often overshadowed by more well-known hunting destinations, Bulgan offers a unique and tranquil experience for hunters seeking a blend of adventure, tradition, and untouched wilderness.
The Unique Wildlife of Bulgan: Species Adapted to Forest and Steppe Ecosystems
Bulgan Province’s diverse ecosystems, which include forested mountains, river valleys, and open steppes, support a variety of game species. Here are the primary animals hunted in the region:
Roe Deer (Capreolus pygargus):
Roe deer are abundant in Bulgan’s forests and grasslands. They are hunted for their tender meat and as a trophy. The hunting season typically runs from August to November, aligning with their mating season when they are more active and easier to track.
Wild Boar (Sus scrofa):
Wild boars thrive in Bulgan’s forested areas and are hunted year-round. They are targeted both for their meat and to mitigate their impact on crops and natural habitats. Boar hunting is particularly popular among locals due to the animal’s destructive behavior.
Red Deer (Cervus elaphus):
Red deer, known for their impressive antlers, are a prized game species in Bulgan. Hunting red deer is a challenging endeavor, as they are elusive and inhabit remote areas. The hunting season usually takes place in the fall, when the stags are in rut and more vocal.
Wolves (Canis lupus):
Wolves are hunted in Bulgan primarily to protect livestock. Hunting wolves requires a special permit and is allowed year-round. Their pelts are also valued for their durability and insulation properties.
Game Birds:
Bulgan’s rivers and wetlands attract a variety of game birds, including ducks, geese, and partridges. Bird hunting is popular during the spring and autumn migration seasons.
Poaching in Bulgan: Threats to Wildlife and Conservation
Poaching remains a significant challenge in Bulgan, as it does in many parts of Mongolia. Endangered species like red deer and roe deer are often targeted for their meat and antlers, which are highly valued on the black market. Poaching is driven by economic hardship, limited enforcement capabilities, and demand from illegal markets.
Efforts to combat poaching in Bulgan include increased patrols, community awareness programs, and stricter penalties for offenders. However, the province’s vast and often inaccessible terrain makes enforcement difficult. Hunters visiting Bulgan are encouraged to support ethical practices and report any suspicious activities to help protect the region’s wildlife.

Hunting in the GROS MORNE Region: Exploring the Local Demographics, Clubs and Hunting Legislation of the Area
Nestled on the western coast of Newfoundland, Canada, Gros Morne National Park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its dramatic landscapes and rich biodiversity. For hunters, this region offers an unparalleled experience, blending challenging terrain with abundant wildlife. Whether you're a seasoned hunter or someone looking to explore new horizons, Gros Morne has much to offer.
Geographical and Natural Features from a Hunter’s Perspective
Gros Morne spans nearly 800 square kilometers of boreal forest, rugged mountains, and pristine lakes. This diverse ecosystem supports a variety of game species but also presents unique challenges due to its dense vegetation and unpredictable weather. The park's topography includes steep slopes, bogs, and rocky outcrops, making it essential for hunters to be physically prepared and equipped with proper gear.
One notable feature is the moose population, which has grown significantly over the years. These large herbivores have reshaped parts of the park’s ecosystem by consuming seedling trees, transforming sections of the boreal forest into grasslands—a phenomenon referred to as “moose savannahs”. This ecological shift underscores the importance of sustainable hunting practices in maintaining balance within the park.
Demographics of Hunters in the Region
While exact numbers fluctuate annually, Parks Canada reports that hundreds of licensed hunters participate in the moose population management program each year. Participants come from across Canada and internationally, drawn by the opportunity to hunt in one of North America's most scenic locations. The demographic includes both recreational hunters seeking trophies and those focused on conservation efforts to mitigate overpopulation.
Hunting Characteristics Unique to Gros Morne
Hunting in Gros Morne requires careful planning due to strict regulations and limited access areas. Firearms are only permitted during designated hunting seasons, and hunters must adhere to specific zone restrictions. Additionally, no hunting is allowed within one kilometer (0.6 miles) of any construction site, ensuring safety around active work zones. The park's isolation means hunters should expect minimal human interference once they venture into the wilderness. However, this remoteness demands self-reliance; GPS devices, survival kits, and knowledge of local flora and fauna are crucial.
Types of Hunting and Game Animals
Currently, moose is the sole species permitted for hunting in Gros Morne National Park. Moose hunting serves two purposes: providing recreational opportunities and managing the population to protect the park's fragile ecosystems. Other forms of hunting, such as small game or waterfowl, are not available within the park boundaries.
Hunting Seasons in Gros Morne
The moose hunting season typically opens in late September and runs until late January, though dates vary slightly depending on the zone. There are three distinct hunting zones within the park, each with different opening and closing dates. Hunters must obtain permits through a lottery system administered by Parks Canada, emphasizing the need for early preparation and adherence to deadlines.
Associations and Clubs Supporting Hunters
Although there aren't formal hunting associations exclusive to Gros Morne, several provincial organizations advocate for ethical hunting practices and provide resources for members. Groups like the Newfoundland and Labrador Wildlife Federation promote education, conservation, and responsible stewardship of natural resources. Engaging with these groups can enhance your understanding of regional hunting traditions and connect you with fellow enthusiasts.
Legislation Governing Hunting in Gros Morne
Hunting in Gros Morne is governed by Parks Canada regulations designed to prioritize safety and sustainability. Key rules include:
Only licensed individuals may hunt during specified seasons.
Open fires and tree cutting are prohibited throughout the park.
Firearms must remain unloaded when transported outside designated hunting zones.
Violations carry significant penalties, including fines and bans, so compliance is non-negotiable.
Regional Traditions Related to Hunting
For centuries, hunting has been integral to Newfoundland's culture, serving as both a livelihood and a communal activity. In rural communities near Gros Morne, families often pass down skills and stories tied to the land. Today, while modern tools and techniques dominate, many hunters still honor traditional methods, such as tracking animals using natural signs and respecting seasonal cycles.
Interesting Facts About Hunting in Gros Morne
Moose Management Success: Since implementing controlled hunts, Parks Canada has successfully reduced moose densities in certain areas, allowing native vegetation to recover.
Zone-Specific Challenges: Each of the three hunting zones offers unique conditions—some are more accessible than others, while some require extensive backcountry navigation.
Conservation Focus: Unlike many regions where trophy hunting dominates, Gros Morne prioritizes ecological balance, reflecting a commitment to preserving its status as a World Heritage Site.

Whether you're drawn by the majestic moose or the allure of untouched wilderness, Gros Morne promises an unforgettable adventure.
