    EHD Outbreak.

    Went hunting in northeastern Wyoming for deer this year and it was really bad. In the area we hunt in and around Hulett Wyoming the deer herd appeared to be wiped out by 80-90%. Corpses were littered all over the place and few if any bucks to be found. It will be tough with a hard winter...

    I feel for you guys. As a long time Minnesota hunter I am praying with my soul this can't happen up there.

    Closure of all non-resident caribou hunting in Alaska- Better Read This!

    How this could gain enough traction to have a chance of passing in Alaska baffles me. A lot of people move up there just for the consideration to hunt animals like caribou as a resident. I sure hope/wish every hunter in the state is going to show up at these public meetings and flame the hell...

    Closure of all non-resident caribou hunting in Alaska- Better Read This!

    Thought this information should be in the general forum so more hunters are aware of what is going on up north. If you have ever wanted to hunt up in Alaska or want to go back your "rights" are under attack. There is a Federal Subsistence Board that apparently can ramrod laws past the Alaska...

    Caribou Closures on Alaska Federal Public Lands (WSA 16-01)

    Would a lawsuit against the Federal Subsistence Board regarding these WSA's make any sense? If these are public lands any closure should affect all citizens of the U.S.

    Caribou Closures on Alaska Federal Public Lands (WSA 16-01)

    This is ridiculous! I hunted caribou in the Brooks range 2 years ago and it was one of the best hunts I've ever done in my life. Is there anything a non Alaska resident hunter from Minnesota can do to fight this Larry? If nothing else I will get in on the conference call to voice my...

    Anyone Spent Any Serious Time In the Sitka Coldfront Series?

    I recently wore the coldfront jacket on a caribou hunt in the Brook's range this past year with temps dropping down into the low 30's. This hunt was in the last week of August going into early September. We had rain, snow, high winds and nasty weather for 7 out of the 10 days we hunted. I...

    Update on Happy Valley Caribou

    Part of the confusion for a lot of newbies like myself is when looking at doing a hunt like this it might not be portrayed realistically. I was under the impression that a north slope hunt has nothing to do with migration routes. Part of my confusion might be from this post from Cabelas who...

    Update on Happy Valley Caribou

    Very helpful to know! Never been up there before so I have no idea what to expect. We leave from Minneapolis to start heading to Deadhorse on saturday. I will have an awesome time regardless of whether I get an animal or not. God willing I will see something with pretty horns but if not it...

    Update on Happy Valley Caribou

    What are the chances the caribou are still going to be moving through the area in the next couple weeks? Are there still caribou around that do not migrate or are the caribou already done going to where they normally go? My understanding was that there are always caribou north of the Brooks...

    This is bad! Really bad. Lion hunting fallout

    Looks to me like there is not much being said about any hunter opposition to the airlines banning these trophies. As far as I can tell only SCI has said anything negative about it...

    This is bad! Really bad. Lion hunting fallout

    As I think about this more it really is not even about getting animals back home from a hunt in Africa. What this is really about is a fight for our right to hunt period. At this time you can legally hunt lions, cape buffalo, elephant, leopard, and rhinos in certain african countries. This is...

    This is bad! Really bad. Lion hunting fallout

    Understand that most hunters who go to Africa use an export shipper such as flora and fauna to get their trophies back home. These normally come from the taxidermist/ dip packer in Africa and show up at your home or the taxidermist in the U.S. I am assuming these exporters use shipping planes...

    This is bad! Really bad. Lion hunting fallout

    This does not bode well! Not being able to import a trophy animal from a hunting excursion will make it less likely that these animals have a financial value for native Afrikans. I would suggest we start figuring out the best hunting organization to put pressue back on the airlines that this...
