Included: lodging during the hunt. Not included: meals or the local transportation which the hunter must provide to the bait sites that he will be shown. The hunter must also provide a valid bear hunting licence. Black Bear hunting is an exercise in stealth and patience. You are hunting an animal that can smell 700 times better than a Bloodhound. The more invisible you become the greater chance you have at a big trophy bear. The big older bears are smart and have a much better sense of smell than younger bears. Seasoned bear hunters who are fanatical about stealth find more success. Black Bear hunting is a lot of fun, especially for first timers. 11 Cynthie Fisher is an avid hunter, wildlife artist and conservationist out of Hamilton, Montana. She was honored as the 2015 Conservation Artist of the Year, because of her exceptional art and her work with many conservation organizations to raise money for wildlife habitat. She believes the hunting community to be the lifeblood of most current conservation efforts and is a staunch supporter of these groups and the message they deliver. These prints are only produced for SCI Chapters and are limited to 100. This Print “A Cautious Approach” is numbered 33/100. 12 Japanese Sika in Czech Repubic 5 days, 6 nights for 1 hunter The western part of the province of Bohemia in the Czech Republic from the cities of Plzen to Karlovy Vary boasts a very high population of Japanese sika. During the rut from early October to about the 25 th of October it is not unusual to see up to 8 to 10 sika stags and 80 or more hinds in a day. The hunting area is located near the charming spa city of Marianske Lazne (Marienbad). The accommodation is in a small village pub on the edge of the hunting area. The rooms are basic but clean with ensuite bathrooms. The pub serves very traditional Czech cuisine. A hunter and his guide can be hunting within a 15 minute drive. The hunting is done from traditional high seats but also spotting and stalking plus calling. The sika hunting season is from August 16 to December 31 but sika stags are nocturnal appearing only in daylight during the rut. That is the best time to hunt them. Hunters enjoy virtually 100 percent hunter success on mature stags. There is a very good chance of a CIC bronze medal stag and a decent chance for silver medal. Gold medal stags occur but are not common. DATES OF HUNT: The hunt could be taken in 2015 or 2016.

Unlike bear hunting, sitting over a bait expecting to shoot a wolf is extremely difficult. Over the last 20 years, Peter Martin of Kapriver Outfitters has developed a unique hunting system that produces results. Located in Kapuskasing,Ontario, Peter and his guides have spent years scouting thousands of miles of bush country in pursuit of the “Ghost of the North”. This unique hunting experience usually takes place in the winter months of December through March when the snow is deep. There are numerous bait sites widely scattered throughout the region in some of the finest wolf country in northern Ontario. A typical day begins by checking bait sites on ATVs and/or snow machines. If a bait site has been hit, the guide may try to attract the animal by predator calling. If that fails, he will run the perimeter of that site and if the wolf or the wolves are bedded down within the block, the guide will place the hunters in strategic positions to await the “Drive”. A tracker will then track the animal on snowshoes, find his bed and the chase is on. The wolves may try to elude the tracker and break towards the hunters. The anticipation of being on the stand and waiting for the most elusive of game animals to appear before you will give you an unbelievable adrenaline rush. The package includes all accommodation, meals and local transport. All hunters must provide a valid wolf hunting licence. The hunt must be taken in early 2016. Value: $ 2,500 plus GST 23 Double Tree Stand by Big Game This 18-ft. double-wide ladder stand accommodates serious hunting duos.
