Hunters couldn't ask for better conditions when Wisconsin's annual nine-day gun deer season opens Saturday. Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials believe that three wolves shot and killed just over the state’s border in Wyoming may have belonged to Colorado’s closely watched North Park wolf pack. Associated Press DENVER (AP) — Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials believe that three wolves shot and killed just over the state's border in Wyoming may have belonged to Colorado's closely watched North Park wolf pack. The North Park pack, which often crosses into Wyoming where hunting wolves is legal, gained notoriety last year after birthing Colorado’s first known litter of pups in 80 years. Travis Duncan, spokesperson for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, said in an email that the agency cannot yet confirm whether the slain wolves were in the North Park pack but will continue to monitor the animals "if and when they are next seen in the area.” Duncan added that at least two wolves were s

RikaNV Team Successes: Wolf Hunting in Belarus Good morning from the RikaNV team! Today we are happy to share with you the impressive results of our wolf hunt in Belarus. While Evgeny Golubev was representing our team at an exhibition in Moscow, our hunters received a signal about a pack of wolves and did not miss the chance. Wolves are one of the most cunning predators, and hunting them requires high training and professionalism. Our team, consisting of experienced hunters, left for the place on the signal. A pack of five wolves approached the hunters almost immediately, which became a real test for our team. Before leaving, we carefully prepared: we studied the habits of wolves, chose the best places for observation and hunting. Teamwork and coordinated actions allowed us to achieve success. Soon we will release a detailed video, where we will show all the stages of the hunt and share our impressions. We are sure that this will be interesting not only for our subscribers, but als

Wolves likely responsible for livestock predation in Colorado What killed 18 cow calves near Meeker, Colorado? The livestock owner reported the depredation last Tuesday

Wolves likely responsible for livestock predation in Colorado What killed 18 cow calves near Meeker, Colorado? The livestock owner reported the depredation last Tuesday to Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW). While the deaths could be linked to wolves, it would mean that new wolves “have migrated into the state,” according to The Denver Post. In 2020, CPW said that wolves had returned to the state after a confirmed sighting of six wolves near an animal carcass in Moffat County. The other known wolf pack resides in North Park near Walden with about eight members; however, they went missing after the pack killed “at least five cows and two dogs,” meaning that they were likely “illegally killed,” according to Michael Robinson with the Center for Biological Diversity. Robinson believes the Moffat pack, which has also disappeared, was also likely illegally killed as well. CPW spokesman Travis Duncan said that the current investigation spans two weeks and several miles on White River Natio

Wolf attacks on herds in Dagestan: drama and fight against predators A real drama unfolded in the hunting grounds of Dagestan over the weekend: a huge pack of wolves, numbering about 12 individuals, attacked local herds, causing panic among residents. These predators are terrorizing the entire area, and local residents are forced to take measures to protect their animals. According to local residents, the video begins with the wolves tearing a horse to pieces. This incident became an alarming signal for hunters and farmers, who realized that they needed to act. On the same day, a hunter appeared at the scene of the attack, ready to confront the threat. As a result of the hunt, they managed to get 3 wolves. Despite this, for such a large pack, this is not a significant loss. Local residents understand that the fight against predators will continue, and it is necessary to develop a strategy to protect their herds. The situation with wolves in Dagestan requires attention and active act

Pack of Canadian Wolves Released in National Park to Control Moose Populations It rippled through the conservation and hunting communities this week when news broke that four Canadian wolves were air-dropped in a national park. According to a recent National Park Service (NPS) news release, the wolves were trapped in Canada and released in the Isle Royale National Park in Michigan. “During a narrow weather window between storms last week, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF) successfully transferred four wolves to Isle Royale National Park,” NPS said. “Earlier this winter, severe weather on both sides of the border hampered the ability to capture and transfer wolves. However, NPS staff worked diligently with ONMRF and over the course of four days successfully translocated Canadian wolves. Two mainland wolves, one female and one male from the same pack and both with a black coat color variation, were captured on crown land near Wawa, Ontario, and transferred to I

And when you spot a wolf, or a pack of wolves, your emotions REDLINE!!! You go from a lethargic daze to gasping for air… IT’S WILD!!! Let me tell you the story of this wolf… My friend Mark McKay, Richy and I were climbing in our blind at daybreak. I was sliding my feet into the bottom of my Heater Body Suit and just about to zip it up when I heard someone say, “WOLVES!!!” Remember the emotions I was telling you about. 🤯🤯🤯… Mark scooted into the blind and informed us he had just seen the whole pack, and they were coming our way! I quietly racked a shell in my Browning 7mm, and gave myself a pep talk about gathering my “chickens!” Eight wolves came into sight!!!

WHAT IS HARE HUNTING? Hare hunting involves the pursuing of hares by a pack of harriers, beagles, or bassets with followers either on foot or on horseback. The Association of Masters of Harriers and Beagles lists 71 current hare hunts that are still operating. Similar to the fox hunting season, hare hunting takes place between late August until March. However, whilst fox hunting takes place all over the country, hare hunting tends to be limited to certain areas and this is because hares stay within their territory. Hares spend the entirety of their lives above ground and so during the chase they do not seek safety underground like foxes do. This means they tend to stick to the area that they know and run in loops whilst being pursued by the hounds. Hare hunts can often last up to an hour with hares desperately doing everything they can to escape. Ultimately the hare being hunted will give up from exhaustion and be caught by the faster hounds before it is ripped to pieces.

After deer season closes, rabbit hunting offers up an exciting pastime in the winter months. It's a different rush from the explosion of grouse hunting or the majesty of flushing a mallard at dawn, but rabbit hunting has its particular draws. Rabbit hunting is a new kind of challenge, and a fun one, for many hunters. The burst of brown fur out of the underbrush, followed by the fluid movement of your rifle, spurs adrenaline through your body. Rabbits are plentiful, so, if you find them, you can usually put a few away for future meals of yummy rabbit stew. It's a great way to get novice hunters and youngsters out there, especially in a season that doesn't have too many options for hunting. You don't need a pack of dogs to go rabbit hunting; you can head out on a solo hunt with a single shot and a pocketful of shells and be just as successful. By studying rabbits' defensive strategies, understanding their hiding places, and being patient, you'll be well on your way to bagging a few

Wolf season shuts down early in southwestern Montana Too many Yellowstone wolves have been trapped or killed by hunters during Montana’s wolf season, resulting in a call by wildlife commissioners to shut the season down early in the southwestern portion of the state. To date, 76 wolves have been reported killed. Once that number hits 82, hunting and trapping will be over for the area this season, according to the Associated Press. In December, Superintendent Cam Sholly asked commissioners to suspend hunting in areas along the park’s borders, stating that “park wolves spend only 5% of their time outside the park.” So far, 23 wolves from Yellowstone packs have been killed – 18 in Montana, three in Wyoming and two in Idaho – sparking park officials to worry that it could mark “a significant setback for the long-term viability” of these packs. Currently, there are only 91 wolves within the park borders, according to spokesperson Morgan Warthin. As goHUNT previously reported, the state

Six Washington wolves were poisoned Six wolves are dead after ingesting poison and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is offering over $51,000 in rewards for information that leads to a conviction. In February, officials discovered four dead wolves about 65 miles northwest of Spokane, Washington; two more dead wolves were discovered within a month, according to the New York Times. All were members of the Wedge pack in Stevens County. The pack had a reputation for trouble. In July 2020, an adult female was lethally removed after repeat livestock depredation on public and private land and other members were also lethally removed for the same issue. While singular wolves have been poached across the state, the death of six is in a league of its own. “With increased patrols and enforcement presence we are hopeful that this type of illegal activity is not replicated by those responsible for the initial poaching or attempts made by potential copycats,” said WDFW spoke

Hunting in France: the hunt or chasse Hunting in France is, at least in rural parts, an institution. It has apparently not shown a decline in numbers in recent decades (although a lot of the hunters appear rather elderly...). Hunters in France come from all social backgrounds, which probably in part explains the lack of hostility to hunting that is seen in those countries where it is largely the gentry who control the hunting. Hunting is to be distinguished from 'pest control'. Control of foxes, ragondin or pigeons for example, usually falls to local specialists rather than the main hunters. Hunters are usually looking for deer, hares, rabbits and wild boar, and game birds such as partridge or pheasant. In France hunters almost always hunt with dogs, but usually on foot - less commonly on horseback. The dogs may be owned by the individual owners or by the hunt as a whole. The dogs belong to specific breeds of hunt dog. Most hunters in France belong to a specific type of 'pack of hun

3 Tactics for Hunting Monster Black Bears Which of the Three Is Your Favorite Method? Like skinning cats, there's more than one way to hunt for bears. For those that tell you bear hunting is just too easy and unchallenging, they've probably never hunted the majestic black and colored bruisers. The basic descriptions of the various types or styles of bear hunting are covered here in this article. My professional bear hunting career began with hound hunting, so let‘s look at that method first. Hunting with Hounds Hound hunting requires the use of a highly trained pack of hounds that have the ability to smell the ground, air and brush in order to track a bear wherever he might go. Once a track is found, the guide, who is usually an expert at reading hound behavior, will let one dog out to test the track. He will know by the dog‘s reactions if the track is good, and if it is, he will let one or two more dogs loose to assist in the tracking. Some guides will let all the dogs go which could

The Mighty Dachshund: Small Dog, Big Hunting Power The Dachshund, often lovingly referred to as the "wiener dog", may be small, but it's a true powerhouse in the world of hunting. Originally bred in Germany, Dachshunds were designed for one primary purpose: to be fierce and determined hunting dogs, excelling at tracking and chasing burrowing animals like badgers, rabbits, and foxes. With their unique, low-to-the-ground muscular build, they can dig into dens and pursue prey where larger dogs can't go. Their keen sense of smell and exceptional tracking skills make them reliable companions for following a scent trail over long distances. Despite their size, Dachshunds have a bold and fearless nature, unafraid to confront prey directly. These dogs are not only strong but also agile. Their long, sturdy legs help them move swiftly when chasing animals, and their sharp reflexes make them adept at navigating through forests and fields. Whether working solo or in a pack, their loyalty, intel

"This is a historical novel, based on a true story that happened during the First World War, on the Eastern Front, in the winter of 1916-17 and which was disclosed and followed by newspapers such as the New York Times. A pack of wolves made up of hundreds of specimens, due to the destruction of the conflict, began to attack and devour not only civilians but also Russian, German and Austro-Hungarian soldiers isolated or in small groups, penetrating even the trenches at night. The belligerent armies were forced to enter into a local truce and form mixed patrols to track down and exterminate the pack. They succeeded but only after several months.

How to Can Deer Meat Tools and Ingredients: Pressure canner Quart jars, rings, and lids Venison Garlic Non-iodized salt Black pepper Directions: Trim up meat so that the majority of fat and tendons are removed. Cube the meat into pieces that are about the size of a golf ball. “Cold pack” the raw meat into the quart jar, leaving about 1 inch of headspace. Use a spoon to tightly pack in the meat. Don’t add any liquid, as the meat will create natural juices during the canning process. Put 1 teaspoon of non-iodized salt, ¼ teaspoon of black pepper, and two cloves of garlic on top of the meat. Adding a few slices of green pepper or onion is optional, and note that a little bit of flavor while canning will go a long way. Place on lid and screw on ring. Put your jars in the canner. Follow the directions that are specific to your pressure canner, which will suggest something like adding three quarts of water, and canning for 90 minutes at 15 pounds of pressure.

Mooching for Deer With the three-hour mooch complete on a recent December morning, our six-pack of deer hunters chewed venison sticks in Doug Duren’s old farmhouse in southwestern Wisconsin and wondered where Duren would send us for the afternoon mooch. Any outsider listening in probably would’ve wondered about something else: “What’s a ‘mooch’ and how does it involve deer hunting?” Good question. No dictionary explains the term the way Duren uses it. Mooching does not mean loitering, which assumes you’re hanging around with no purpose. Nor does it involve begging for food, drink, money or other handouts. Instead, one mooches by moving glacier-like along a precise route, as designated by Duren, through a woodlot or its border with a field of corn or alfalfa. Your individual mooch, when combined with mooches made by fellow moochers, creates one overall mooch, much as individual drivers combine to create a drive. If the mooch succeeds, a moocher gets a shot at a slow-moving deer, or

Naivis Gen 2+ Night Vision Scope: Honest Hunter's Review Look, I've been hunting for over 20 years. I've seen gear come and go, and I'm not easily impressed by fancy gadgets. I decided to give the Naivis Gen 2+ night vision scope a try, hoping it would give me an edge during those low-light hunts. I paired it with the Naivis 850nm IR illuminator, which I'll touch on later. Here's my honest take: Naivis Gen 2+ The Good: Decent Image Quality (For Gen 2+): Let's be clear, it's not Gen 3 clarity, but for the price point and being a Gen 2+, the image is surprisingly good. It provides a usable image in fairly dark conditions, allowing target identification out to a reasonable distance (about 150-200 yards in my experience). It definitely beats trying to hunt with binos and a prayer. Sturdy Build: The scope feels solid. It's been bumped around in my pack, endured some light rain, and still holds zero. That's crucial when you're out in the bush. Adjustable Brightness: The ability to adjus

How To Take Better Hunting Photos You’ve just shot a big-game animal. The adrenaline is pumping; you and your buddies are stoked, and then the reality sets in that the work is now upon you to butcher and pack-out the caribou, moose, bear, sheep, deer, goat, elk, bison or musk ox. In the haste to get started butchering, you snap off a few photos, trying to capture the animal and moment, but without forethought, the photos rarely end up capturing the elation and satisfaction of the hunt or the image of the quarry.

The Sussex Spaniel: A Low-Riding Hunting Partner for the Thinking Hunter The Sussex Spaniel. Not a breed you see every day afield, and that's a damn shame. This sturdy, low-slung spaniel from the south of England is a serious hunting dog with a unique style and plenty to offer the right hunter. If you value methodical work, a close-working dog, and a partner that doesn't quit, read on. What Will a Sussex Spaniel Hunt? These dogs were bred for thick cover, and they excel at flushing game close. Think rabbits, pheasants, quail, and other ground-nesting birds. Their deliberate pace and loud voice when they're on a scent makes them ideal for hunting in dense brush where you might not see the game until it's practically underfoot. They're not built for long retrieves in water, but they can handle light waterfowl work in moderation. Where to Find Them While they originated in Sussex, England, these dogs are relatively rare worldwide. You'll find pockets of dedicated breeders and hunters

🦌 Game Fair France 2025 - A Hunter’s Perspective 🇫🇷 Just got back from the Game Fair 2025 in Lamotte-Beuvron, France - and let me tell you, it was an absolute paradise for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts alike. The atmosphere? Electric. The gear? Next-level. The people? Some of the most passionate and knowledgeable folks I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. From handcrafted rifles to beautifully tuned duck calls, every booth had something worth stopping for. I was especially impressed by the innovations in sustainable hunting gear - lighter packs, high-performance camouflage, and some top-notch optics. The live demos and shooting ranges were a great chance to put the latest equipment to the test right on the spot. One of the highlights was connecting with other hunters from across Europe and beyond. We swapped stories, shared techniques, and built friendships around a fire and a good old-fashioned wild game grill-up. Can’t beat that. For anyone in the hunting world, Game Fair Franc

The Spinone Italiano: A Hunter's Companion Across Continents If you're a hunter who values versatility, stamina, and a gentle touch, the Spinone Italiano deserves a place by your side. This isn't your hyper-strung, speed-demon pointer. The Spinone is a deliberate, methodical worker, equally at home in the uplands, marshes, or even retrieving waterfowl. Let's dive into what makes this breed special. Quarry: What Can the Spinone Italiano Hunt? This breed is a true generalist. The Spinone Italiano excels at hunting: Upland Birds: Pheasant, quail, grouse, woodcock. Their methodical pace and close-working style make them deadly on these birds. Waterfowl: Ducks and geese. The Spinone's dense coat and love of water make them surprisingly adept retrievers. Small Game: Rabbit and hare. Their keen nose can track these animals through dense cover. Larger Game (with limitations): In some European countries, Spinones are used to track wounded deer or wild boar. This is not their primary role

Fox Foxes are small to medium-sized, omnivorous mammals belonging to several genera of the family Canidae. They have a flattened skull, upright, triangular ears, a pointed, slightly upturned snout, and a long bushy tail (or brush). Twelve species belong to the monophyletic "true foxes" group of genus Vulpes. Approximately another 25 current or extinct species are always or sometimes called foxes; these foxes are either part of the paraphyletic group of the South American foxes, or of the outlying group, which consists of the bat-eared fox, gray fox, and island fox. Foxes live on every continent except Antarctica. The most common and widespread species of fox is the red fox (Vulpes vulpes) with about 47 recognized subspecies. The global distribution of foxes, together with their widespread reputation for cunning, has contributed to their prominence in popular culture and folklore in many societies around the world. The hunting of foxes with packs of hounds, long an established pursuit

American Arctic explorer Robert E. Peary in polar expedition gear aboard his ship SS Roosevelt, 1908. In the frigid expanse of the Arctic Ocean, where ice stretched endlessly and the sun barely peeked above the horizon, stood one of America’s most daring explorers, Robert Edwin Peary. It was the year 1908, a time when the world's eyes were fixed on the North Pole, an elusive goal that had captivated the imagination of adventurers for centuries. Peary, aboard his sturdy ship, the SS Roosevelt, prepared for what would be his final and most ambitious expedition to reach the top of the world. The SS Roosevelt, named after the then-President Theodore Roosevelt who had supported Peary’s endeavors, was a specially designed vessel built to withstand the crushing grip of pack ice. Its reinforced hull, thick timbers, and powerful engine made it one of the few ships capable of navigating the treacherous waters of the Arctic. But even with such a formidable vessel, the journey ahead was fraugh

Wolf charges Bear, then Bear charges the Wolf. I waited at a Bison carcass from 5am to 9pm for 3 days. Eagles and coyotes had been coming in trying to get a bite, while the Grizzly guarded the carcass, just as its mother taught it to. It would sleep on it and cover it with dirt, and when it seemingly left the scene….it would show back up when other animals tried to feed. On the 3rd morning a lone Wolf 1479 showed up from the Junction Butte pack. It had about 10 minutes to eat before the Grizzly came back. They had an initial stare down. The wolf stood on the carcass and then charged the bear. The bear initially retreated and then decided to charge the wolf. Of course the bear reclaimed the carcass.

Looking back on a fantastic week in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. I treasure every trip I get to make to the GYE. This image was captured February of 2022. After listening to multiple groups of howls, we decided to position ourselves in between them in hopes we could catch a glimpse. After only 5hrs of being in the general area our patients paid off. To my surprise a beautiful young gray wolf appeared on the ridge above. With another pack across the river communicating with her I knew we were in for a treat. She boldly made her way down the ridge and towards us. I was fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time. I snapped what would be my favorite wolf shots to date. This experience brings me back year after year. The GYE is truly like no where else on earth! Canon R5 Canon RF 400mm f/2.8 L IS USM
