World Records - Newfoundland Woodland Caribou

Спорт

Steve West and his camera team fly into the remote regions of Newfoundland in search of Woodland Caribou and Moose. The goal was to take a Woodland Caribou with his CVA muzzleloader that would make the B&C Record Books. They ended up with so much more... an adventure... new friends... and an experience that will never be forgotten and is etched in the longhunter record books for all time to come.

    Born and raised in Newfoundland. I enjoy hunting Whitetail living in Alberta now, but this makes me want to move back home. Awesome hunt.

    That "elder statesman" of that island was absolutely magnificent! Truly an amazing animal. Congratulations Steve & you did, in fact, make the right call.

    Newfoundlander here! I'm personally not a sport hunter, but every year since I was 18 I have gotten my moose and bear license, to put food on my table. I have nothing against sport hunters, who do it ethically and lawfully. I actually stumbled upon your video doing research to better understand the outfitting industry in newfoundland and hunting tourism here as I am writing a 5 year forest management plan for an area here in the province and one of the animals I must include in the conservation plan and values is woodland caribou. I would love to one day be able to hunt a caribou, they are beautiful creatures whose whole biology is a marvel. I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking that bull. He had obviously won many battles and was at the end of his life. Leaving that bull and taking a younger, healthier one would have been like killing two caribou, which would have been ethically wrong. You also put him out of his pain, a mercy that im sure the bull appreciated.

    Small island of Newfoundland is the sixteenth largest island in the world 108860(sq km). It takes 9 hours to drive on the TransCanada Hwy from port aux basques to St.John's.

    I did get a woodland caribou on the 3rd morning. Not an old beast like in the video here but a young stag. I wasn't going to turn down a legal shot. Turns out that while we're field dressing my stag, out walk 3 more caribou about 100 yards away, including a much bigger stag. But that's how it goes! The meat is excellent, much like elk.

    Dude, you whistle when you whisper. Did you not notice the guide give you that go to hell look when you were whistle whispering? When you are out in the field, shut up and fill it in with editing later on. You didn't get a moose because you kept whistle whispering. I wanted to slap you and I envy you a lot. Great video and hunt.

    You made a ethical decision by taking the animal, good call.good hunt . Sometimes one has to take these speeches from biologist and scientist with a grain of salt. 100,000 caribou 1 predator,, 30,000 caribou now 4 predators, not hard to figure out.

    I had made a bad shot on this bull on video and broke his leg and decided not to show how bad of a shot I had made,so I made up the story which I thought sounded pretty good about how he broke it fighting and was so skinny.................................Bull looked pretty healthy................If it had been me I would of showed a closeup of his broke leg....................But then they might of noticed it was a gunshot wound...............The real true hunter of this group was the old man who wasn't stuck on his skill,s as a hunter.Money talk,s.

    You have no basis in fact upon which to base your comments. You are making accusations that you cannot prove. Shame on you. I don't doubt that he did exactly what he said, because I have no reason to call him a liar like you just did.
