In this video, we highlight how sustainable hunting makes a positive impact on game, the wildlands, and local communities.
We are taking you on an epic hunt into the heart of the Arctic in pursuit of a trophy walrus. This adventure not only documents how to hunt in some of the most inhospitable landscapes, it shows first-hand how the amazing Inuit community was able to benefit from the expedition.
Amazing people, unforgettable views and an epic journey lie ahead. We hope you enjoy this incredible hunt for a giant Walrus in the arctic.
Sustainable hunting is one of the most valuable tools in the preservation of land and wild game. The future of wild animals across the globe is dependent on our ability to sustain their constantly shrinking habitat.
So the question remains. How does hunting help sustain and preserve the wildlands?
It’s actually very simple, the local communities depend on the revenue generated from hunters. They also greatly benefit from the meat harvested during the safaris that take place on their land.
Because of this, the game is protected and the habitat preserved.

I am a hunter and in my opinion this doesn't represent a true sportsman. it was simply shooting an animal to say that you shot one. Yeah you can build it up as a challenging stalk, and that the meat won't go to waste. But the locals have lived and thrived in that region for centuries without needing someone to come shoot their food for them. Rich guys like yourself is what's driving up the price of hunting in general. Making it hard on us Blue collared guys. Pathetic to say the least.

Probably not an issue no one cares about as bigger issues in the world nowadays, but my understanding was always that the inuits were allowed to hunt because it is part of their culture (albeit with guns and mechanized boats which would make me laugh) but unless i've misjudged selling the privlidge as appears to have occurred here to some indian bloke who is not part of that culture or living that lifestyle is really stretching the goodwill gesture from the wider society in my opinion.

@AHuntersQuest Год назад

Thanks for the comment. The Inuit are able to sell several tags to outsiders ( they get all the money from the hunt) and receive all the meat as well as guide the hunt. A absolute win win for the Inuit community. The tags are given to communities. Now the walrus has even more value to the Inuit and are protected. What sustainable hunting is all about.👍

Mario, the walrus mount( which is a replica) is to remind me of the great experience I had with Inuit on a hunt that get meat for the local community to get them through the winter. The walrus has become a valuable resource for them, they get money coming in and all the meat. because of that , they are now protecting the animal that almost got wiped out 40 years ago. Sustainable hunting is the best tool to make sure wild animals are going to be around. I understand you might have a issue with trophy room but for me it has been a great tool to educate people( especially young kids) to the animals that exist around the globe and how we can protect them.

I have the same feelings on shooting a walrus. I love and appreciate hunting, just seems to boxed or caged like trophy hunting. I'm sure the benefits are worthwhile for all involved (minus the hunted walrus) and I'm not disagreeing.... just doesn't feel like "hunting". No disrespect, no offense to anyone, it's nothing like that -> trust me, my opinion is worthless and I have no experience in any kind of hunting like this.

good hunt. only concern is targetting a trophy bull with genetics for large tusks over time will result in the elimination of big tusk bulls from the gene pool. the prime bulls with genetics to make big tusks. this is the case in elephants now, as prime bulls with largest tusks , and big moose with largest racks are targetted.

@rajivwelikala5062 Год назад

FYI im not a PETA animal rights nut. just noting, trophy hunting of the prime specimens need to be properly monitored and controlled so that enough genes pass on to create the top prime specimens for the future. sustainability is key

@AHuntersQuest Год назад

Rajiv, all valid points you made however in the case of the walrus, we were targeting the oldest bull, that was not part of the breeding cycle. He happened to have big tusks. Also the largest and oldest bull provided the Inuit community the most meat which was the main goal of the hunt. There was a 700 pound difference between him and other mature bulls.

Also I am curious on what kind of logistics that go into choosing an animal and making sure it doesnt make it back into the water after a shot . The animal you shot wasnt going anywhere !! Anyway , I hope you post pics if you get it mounted .

@AHuntersQuest Год назад

Adriano, all good questions. Cannot bring back the walrus parts to the U.S.. due to the marine act but made exact replicas of the ivory and have a mount with my polar bear in my trophy room. Will highlight this in a trophy room video we will do next year. Meat has alot of fat and they utilized the blubber for oil. We spent alot of time finding the oldest male, one that was not part of the breeding cycle and also provided the most meat for the Inuit. A old bull is about a 1,000 pounds heavier than a regular bull. Most people that have commented thought the shot was easy. The reason it was difficult despite begin close, is the walrus had to be dropped its tracks or else it goes into the water and is lost. The highlight of the hunt for me was watching them take over 2500 pounds of meat off that island. Thank for the questions and hope you check out some of our other hunt videos and share and like our videos if you enjoy them. The recent hippo was exciting as well as a great sustainable hunt story.

Excellent question Jamie and apologies for the late response. The walrus population is monitored closely and aging the few walrus the Inuit are allowed to take a watched closely.

@@AHuntersQuest I have started to enjoy fat these days. I have been cutting out vegetable oil. Fat is energy and I've even lost inches around the waist

Thanks for this video I just subscribed. I wish I could afford to travel and hunt as it is I have ben hunting for 5 years and no success because I have a hard enough time getting out to hunt 🤣 and this year we had a wild fire that kinda ended the season early for me so I just watch everyone else's hunts .thanks again for the vid

I used to hunt in my younger days but my gawd, you call this hunting? I cannot imagine myself "hunting" this harmless, slow and lumbering animal. You know how the people of the olden days get them? With a specialized club, spear or harpoon. I don't care who this guy is but I don't think this man is a real "hunter" in my book. 😊

Did it for the locals and donated the whole thing, it was an experience for him and the local people needed the resources. I don't see anything wrong, found a herd, stalked around and found a big one, took a shot without harming the others behind it. Good hunt

I don't think you ever hunted a day in your life more like a vegan troll. Go to your safe place and get your soy burger.

@@eagleclaw7093 appreciate the comment and the purpose of the video was to highlight the importance of the walrus for the local Inuit community. Nothing was wasted and we took a super old bull that provided a lot of meat.

Awesome Adventure!

@AHuntersQuest Год назад

Tyler my friend, it truly was the adventure of a lifetime to hunt with the Inuit and see the importance of the walrus for there community. The journey into the artic, 5 hr boat ride to the island in the middle of ocean and getting every bit of meat and skin from the island to the village was incredible. Hope you check out some of our other adventures as well. Got a great one from africa after a rogue hippo we just uploaded!!! Great to have you on the quest and please share and like our videos if you enjoy them. 👊🏼🙏

That hunt took stealth and patience

It was truly a amazing experience in the Inuit

This is not hunting. Perhaps this individual should add the sloth to his list of animals to butcher. Don't get me wrong, I am a hunter, but this is not the kind of hunting I want to be associated with.

Unfortunately, you cannot hear the man speaking over the music, wind and waves. I hope that they improve in the editing department for the next one.

Awesome man! Also, congrats on your hunt!!

@AHuntersQuest Год назад

Justin, appreciate you leaving a comment. It was such a extraordinary privilege for me to go with the Inuit to a island 5 hrs from there village and be a part of it. The best part to watch how they took 2500 pounds of meat from the island back to there village. These are the moments that stay with me. Got some other exciting adventures on the channel including a recent rogue hippo bull we took at 13 paces. Please like and share our channel if you enjoy the content . Great to have you along on the quest!!!
