Tracking & Trapping Course

 

Tracking & Trapping Course

 

In this Tracking & Trapping Course, you will learn how to track and trap food using handmade traps and snares. Since ancient times, humans have hunted and gathered to survive. They used every part of the animal, wasting nothing. Fur was made into clothing for warmth. Meat, sinews, and bones were used as valuable resources for tools.

You will learn to observe the movements and habitats of various animals. Each animal has different habits, requiring different hunting methods. For instance, stalking an animal might involve using bushes for cover or moving on hands and knees. In tall grass, trackers crawl on their stomachs, pulling themselves forward with their elbows. Different animals or birds need different approaches due to their characteristics.

The key is to avoid attracting attention with sudden movements. Trackers move slowly when the animal isn’t looking and stay still when it is. They must also avoid disturbing other animals. A startled animal will alert others in the area, including the one being tracked. All trapping techniques taught in the course are for demonstration only, as hunting laws vary by country. Food will be provided and cooked on-site. Options like moose and reindeer meat are available, depending on the course you choose.

An unbeatable dog sledding adventure Despite unusually poor snow conditions in the area the team at Wild Spirit worked hard to ensure that our dog sledding experience could continue, proposing an alternative, beautiful route. The dogs were amazing, and the team welcoming, friendly and very helpful to our bunch of dog sledding beginners. It was an exhilarating adventure that has made our holiday in the Are area. Not to be missed.

Best Part of My Trip! This was the highlight of my trip to Sweden. Richard and his team showed the upmost professionalism and care.The dogs were lovely and ready to go! They take time to explain everything to you so if you have no prior experience, it'll be totally okay!Our safety was always first and learning how to use the sled was easy!What impressed me the most was the Richard's and Claire's fun personalities. Conversation was great and coming back to the Kennel and meeting the rest of the dogs was nice! We won't ever forget how they helped us when we ran into an emergency AFTER our visit. I know there's other dog sledding companies to chose from but you really must pick Wild Spirit for both their dogs and their humans!
