Thanks for the great comment friend! Would just recommend not fishing in to deep of water this time of year just to prevent temperature shock or barotrauma.. but good luck! Lots of big musky in that area!
I think it's just wrong to bait an animal I my state it's illegal to do so an if you get caught doing this you will be fined heavily and never get to obtain a license again
With her injury i am curious if she lost a battle with a boar and lost her cubs. She was on high alert from the first moment. Plus she was a large sow. She knew her business.
Thank you for sharing. What an awesome hunt, great shot! I’m curious about that sow, I couldn’t tell how or if she was eating, she looks healthy and shiny. Her injury looks to be old and healed, was she eating funny or did you guys notice her having a problem eating? I glad your hunt was a success and wow what an experience!
Thanks for the great comment! Yes we did notice her eating once she got comfortable. We feel with her nose being gone, her senses are limited to sight and sound. you can also notice in the video she was often tasting the air with her tongue. She also did a false charge under our stands.. unfortunately I did not get that on camera. Great experience!
Yeah that looks like that black bear got his face bit off in a fight more common than you think I've seen a lot of bears in the wild in my life never had time to video tape them I was just in awe! Grizzlies out west and east believe it or not! And really big black bears have photos I took!
Aggressive haha, some these black bears in Saskatchewan would haunt you to the bones, lots of these bears out here pushing 500 to 600 easily in the central part where I’m from, I’ve been charged at 6 times out of 8 hunts and all on the ground spot and stalk hunts and if your looking for adrenaline that’s it, my whole perspective and world changed on big game hunting when I went on my first bear hunt and had a near death experience and ever since then I was hooked, bear hunting is no joke and keeping you’re head on a swivel is key because not all bears are the same and have each their own unique characteristics and traits and mentality etc, getting close on a personal level face to face within feet apart definitely ain’t smart but is as breathtaking as it will ever get when you lock eyes and that look feels like it went right through you.
Why do you watch if it upsets you ? Bears are not endangered animals by any means and if there's too many bears, the food and resources are stretched thin and they start going into human areas to find enough food to hibernate over winter. I bet you wouldn't enjoy having bears in your yard especially if one attacked you, your pets or children. Besides black bears are good eating, they don't go to waste. It's all about numbers and balance. Plus money used for hunting goes into conservation. Hunters don't want to destroy them all. They issue hunting tags according to how many bears are available and how many can be taken to keep the numbers balanced and from having too many bears in an area.
This should be world wide news. The Short Face Bear has been rediscovered after being declared extinct. Some comments say this bear wasn't popping her jaw, which shows aggression, but with her injury I don't think she was able too. At no point in this video did you see her actually eat. She was all over that peanut butter, but she never used her tongue to eat any of the bait, probably because she didn't have the capability to do so. She is so aggressive that she is outranking Freddie Kruger in the scary face category.
If she wasn't able to eat, she wouldn't have had the body fat to give birth to cub(s) or make it through the previous winter. She wasn't undernourished so she's eating somehow and it's not a fresh injury. It's unattractive but a healed injury. She's managing fine in spite of it and raising her cub.
So many questions. Firstly, Australian here, so excuse my ignorance. Were they mosquitoes or flys? Coz if they're mosquitoes, man, they are huge! Next question: What is the peanut butter looking stuff you use as bait?
I first put on a thin balaclava and a hat, then the mosquito mesh. It's just a cheap one but it worked alright as long as you tucked it in around your neck properly.
He said it looked right at each of them went to the tree right under his partner, then went strait after another bear behind them = very naturally protective of her cub which might mean the other cub(s) got killed by a boar earlier and how she was disfigured in that fight and she's huge for a sow so that boar likely was a monster-[a cub killer] = she's wired to kill now with only one cub left...!
My thoughts.. That sow has already lost cubs to an aggressive male! She fought for their lives.. only to have her snout ripped off 😮 Bears naturally go for the face of one another.. thats the part that does the damage! Nice footage.. and I agree.. I would have been on edge.. maybe over the edge 😮 Thanks for sharing this with us ❤
I would think only another bear could do that myself, but I guess an antlered animal could too ? Maybe as a younger subadult bear it took on something a little bigger than it should have ? Definitely a nasty thing to heal from but bears are tough critters.
@@michelebrown158 You do realize that part of the reason there is baiting allowed for bear hunting is to allow the hunter ample time to ensure the bear isn't a mother with cubs right? So you would prefer no baiting allowed, and the potential for more female bears with cubs being harvested?
@@michelebrown158 Great, that's each state choice in how they manage their wildlife. but this video was clearly filmed in Manitoba baiting is allowed for the exact reason I stated above. Personally I prefer mother with cubs are not mistakenly harvested. But that's me, I'm weird that way.
I don't think the sow was overly aggressive. Obviously, she is in protection mode because of the cub and the proximity of humans and other bears. She was letting you know she was aware of you and you better leave her baby alone, but there were no snapping of jaws or aggressive sounds. It was her deformity that gave her that sinister look rather than her actions.
I mentioned in the video that off camera she was aggressive. She false charged while looking at us and swiping her paw. Was saving battery life in my camera but I do agree the cub was definitely a factor
@@fishhuntstudios I missed that part where you mentioned the false charge. I have to admit I lowered the sound because the mosquito buzzing was driving me crazy 🙂 I really hate that sound
I was going to make the same comment because I didn't see any jaw popping or false charges but if she was doing that yeah that's that's aggressive but given her condition and she had a cub she was definitely overcompensating
