Hunting for an moose on Kamchatka

Hunting takes place on transitions, in vacation spots and feedings of animals.

We hunt an moose in several ways:
Hunting for groan

This is the most productive and exciting hunt. It brings joy and pleasure to hunters. Hunters, having met a fresh trace of moose - the male is allowed along the trail by 1-2 dogs that, having found the "put" the bull. The hunter, hearing barking, must neatly, under the wind, approach the shot. If the moose rests on the hunter, then he can leave and the dogs will not always be able to stop the beast for the second time.

Passes when the snow level is sufficient to keep traces. Carefully moving next to the trail and carefully examining the area, the hunters detect the beast and, approaching, shoot.

It is held in the morning, when the animals are in a place known for hunters on a toast or rest. Carefully, on the leeward side, the hunters sneak up to the beast at the distance of the correct shot.

Direct the beast at the hunter
The riders drive the moose at the hunter left at the site of the likely exit of the beast.

Moose hunting requires acceptable weather. The hunter must be prepared for the difficulties.

Hunt for the Kamchatka brown bear
The Kamchatka brown bear is the largest representative of brown bears in Eurasia. This is due to the presence of the richest feed base on the peninsula. Bears receive almost unlimited opportunities to feed on plant and animal food, which determines their outstanding size.
Hunting is carried out in the morning, during the day and until late in the evening. As a rule, hunting is successful in the afternoon, when bears begin to feed longer in one place and hunters have time to approach the bear they saw. Often, hunters go hunting, seeing the right specimen of a bear right from the camp. From the camp one-day and two to three day routes with overnight stay in heated beams and huts.
