I heard there are some forest bovines in Poland which can be hunted. Has anyone heard of this?

My daughter in law is from Poland and says that they are highly protected, but she thinks there is limited hunting on some private land that is VERY expensive.

She will ask her family in Poland for more information.

Oh for Heaven's sake! Go back to the thread "Really BIG European game". There're pix of both the wisent and the reconstructed aurochs and they are both forest bovines in Poland. Sheesh!

Pablo

This forum is in Polish.

I had a look at "the Hyde Park". If I remember from my travels in Poland, The Buffalo's (Wisent) name in Polish is ZUBRA. I don't find this word on the thread.
Can You help?

Larcher, with such a small gene pool it's like asking Chinese how much dinero for a Panda hunt, no thanks, but one of the members suggested this site:
web page
I don't know them, and I am not associated with them.
I did notice they have 2 pics of the same animal with 2 different hunters.

In reply to:

Very observant of you.

So which one of these "hunters" is actually the "hunter"?

This guy?


Or this guy?


Of course, we could be mistaken, and maybe the animal was shot by both hunters for some reason. Giving them legitimate cause to both have their pictures taken. Kind of strange though for the company to use both pictures for promotional reasons, since I would have thought they had another picture or two of differant animals they could have used instead. Notice that several of the other pictures they have are of the same animals from differant veiws/angles.

Is the rifle the same?

A legitimate reason might be one guy is the client and the other the guide.

I often pose the PH or guide with the animal alone as well as myself alone and both together. Different angles etc. Sometimes other people eg last trip a couple of other clients who accompanied me and one of whom filmed with my video camera for me (Anne). Usually the commentary reveals who is who.


If there is a Polish commentary on this website maybe that reveals all or not ?


PS Some hunting magazines do exactly what Erik alludes to. On the years they run hunting stories and test reports of rifles. The same animal is used in a number of different stories with different people and apparently different rifles used to kill it sometimes as well. Amazing how tough some deer can be!

I would guess that the hunter is the one holding the rifle in the pictures, the guides are the ones that looks not so comfortable to be in the pictures and not holding the rifle.

Only my wild guess though......

Yes CChunter,

You are right, "the hunter is the one holding the rifle in the pictures", look at the branch put up in his hat, it's a reverence for the game.

JB,

That explains a lot. But it's still an odd way to market hunts IMO. It would have been better to just have the hunter with his animal pictured, instead of these additional photos with the guide. I still think it kind of looks like they are trying to fool potential future customers into thinking that they are differant animals.

Yes I fear they are tempting to fool future customers. Anyhow, I'll love to shoot (or arrow) a bison. The bison is perhaps closer to my home than You are.
Good luck

Sometimes a bunch of photo-images are provided to the graphic-arts company contracted to design the web-page or brochures. They would be expected to select suitable images for the promotional literature or on-line advertising. If they do not understand the subtleties, duplication can occur through no fault of the 'safari' company.

GV, Thank you.mi was hoping you would post an image of your wisent. Waidmannsheil. (Btw is there any traditional French hunting congratulations?)

Looks cold!

What do you take from the animal, a shoulder mount, skull mount, hide rug, meat?

Are they considered endangered? Or CITES listed in any way?

I'd love to read a story of your hunt, or even just a few details of how the hunt was conducted.

Thanks.

From another linked thread;
Quote:


My family originally came from the Eastern part of Germany (Prussia) and I was intrigued to see a European bison come from that area on the wall on Konopiste Castle in Czech from a similar time.

I would love to hunt one oneday, from the herds in the East of Poland but understand they are not cheap. Anyone know how much?




East Brandenburg so the West of Poland today. The trophy in Konopisye had the label, "Mezeritz" (spot?). A town in East Brandenburg a little north of my ancestors village. Strange maybe a small tamish herd? Or the Meseritz of the wisent was from a town with the same name in the East.

I'd like to use my "Zabardast", my Jeffery .450 NE, Afor European bison/wisent. Also for North American bison. It's my bovine slayer.

The hunt took place in 2003, at a time when the trophy fees foe Wisent were still relatively low compared to nowadays.

The hunt was not very difficult since the area of Bialowieza Forest on the border Poland and Belarus are well recorded and well managed on both sides. The shooting was strictly regulated and the authorities determined which animal may and must be shot. I shot the Wisent with my rifle caliber 460 WBY-Magnum with a 500gr SP bullet and a stronger load because of the very low temperature in February. The only difficulty was that I had to shoot at long range, may be 200 Yards or more, because the terrain was very open and it was impossible to get closer to the herd of bisons. With the cartridge 460 WBY-Magnum it was not too much difficult and I had a good shooting position. The buffalo lay in place to the great satisfaction of the local hunting authorities who were used to follow wounded animals as most hunters use to small calibers for this strong game.

As for the trophy, things did not go so well. I could only take the skull with me and the skin was supposed to be sent to me, but unfortunately it got lost. That's why it did not work with a head and shoulder mount.

The herd stood outside the forest area in open fields and swamp areas. I approach the Wisent under the eyes of part of the herd.

could be its not so simple anymore today to hunt the polish -white russian border area.

A 300gr bullet is very light for this cartridge and has a poor ballistic. The lightest bullet I used was the 450gr TSX bullet from Barnes. The ballistic was very good. I shot a buffalo with it, but then stayed true again to the 500gr bullets.

The 500gr SP Interbond bullet from Hornady was perfect for hunting Wisent, as well as for some buffalos that I have shot with it in Africa.

GV,

Thanks for posting. Your comments explain the hunt a lot. I'm guessing a .450 NEdouble rifle for that hunt would have been difficult with quite long range shots needed.

A great pity the hide didn't make it to you. Very disappointing when the headskins, hides etc get lost, stolen, swapped, damaged. I haven't had one stolen or lost completely, but have had a zebra black skin swapped for a brownish skin. An eland headskin missing most of its chest hair. Taxidermy and hunting skins, skulls export and shipping, is an area of high incompetence, inefficiency and fraud. One bill 10x its proper pricing, I told them to get ffffed ... And it was reduced tremendously. Another time given a bill for an Austrian, always higher. My papers lost one time. A friendly outfitter helped out. Nowadays the greenie terrorist factor is huge.

As commented the region of the wisest territory is a bit less accessible now. Eastern border of Poland, Western Belarus, Western Ukraine. The Ukrainian-Russian border seems mostly in the opposite Eastern andcSouthern Ukrainian regions, but who wants to be un-necessarily in any of these countries.

Wisent is a beast one rarely reads or sees hunted. Congratulations on it. You must have an interesting trophy room. Thanks for posting.

Sounds like a great hunt. They look very similar to the American Bison.

The European species of the same. Smaller.

If only we still had the wild kine, the aurochs, as well.

Actually we still have it, the Aurochs. It is the Spanish fighting cattle, and in France we also have big herds of it in the Camargue.

Reconstructing an original Aurochs is not difficult, but we no longer have the terrain for it. In Germany attempts have been made to keep Wisent in the wild. A disaster in our densely populated areas and the herds are too small so there are many genetic problems.

It is better to protect species that still exist before experimenting with species that are more or less extinct.

Interesting the North American vs European species.

Wapiti or American "elk" vs Red stag / deer

Moose vs European moose/alg/elg.
(American elk was misnamed after the elg, European moose.)

American bison aka "buffalo" vs Wisent European bison.

The European species are all smaller than the north American species. I assume they could interbreed.

Brown bear also exist in both places. Are inland American brown bears/grizzlys bigger than European brown bears? Almost certainly the well fed coastal Alaskan brown bears. But otherwise. Brown bears in Scandinavia, Romania, former Yugoslavian countries, elsewhere and of course Russia. The Russian brown bears have a reputation for size, of course those in Eastern Siberia, Kamchatka are just as big as the biggest North American BBs.

Interesting the species and the size differences. I wonder why the size differences?

As for the Elk, Wapitis and Red Deers are two different species, despite the fact that hybridizations are said to be possible. The Red Deer is smaller that the Wapiti or the Maral.

The differences in the size of the Moose are mainly due nowadays to the terrain and the food it offers. According to old reports there were also in Europe in the past very large Mooses near to those of BC/Canada for example.

The same applies to the Wisent as well as the Bear, all a question of the terrain that is still available and the food that this terrain offers.

What was meant above all was why the same wild species are smaller in Europe than in North America.

The discussion was triggered by the Wisent, which is said to be smaller than the North American Bison, although that is not so clear. The two species differ a little bit related to body shape.

animals are not a fixed genetic type. A split mob/herd will wander along in different directions over time as there is no connection between them for inter breeding. One gene becomes dominant in one mob/herd and creates differences. Gene mutation.

Genetics certainly play a role in the end, but sticking with the size of the animals, the environment plays at the beginning a major role. On small islands, animals tend to get smaller. There were small elephants on many islands in the Mediterranean Sea.

Correct to a certain point, predators are also a main factor. Small islands small quantity of food available smaller animals survive therefore that gene pool dominates.
The American Bison was fine until white man arrived then it was a double hit in a very short time.

The american Bison was unfortunately deliberately exterminated.

It was a little different with the Wisent in Europe, since it was a game whose hunting was reserved for the noble mans. Hunting without good wildlife management certainly contributed to its near-extinction, but habitat loss was a major factor.

Might be a language issue, but the US bison was not exterminated.

There are many existing herds both wild and semi-domesticated.

Close to it !

There were a number of reasons why it was done or at least tried, but you probably also know the topic and the corresponding photos of this time.

(GV answered in between. )

Not exterminated, "near extinction" means nearly but not 100% exterminated. I can't remember how many was the lowest estimate, 100 or 400? Nowhere near endangered now. Maybe a North American member can contribute.

Art/Ripp, has a neighbour with a domestic bison herd. There are many. Most hunting is pedestrian. Hamish animals. There are reportedly herds that are wilder and better hunting. Mountain herds? I'd like to hunt one of these herds one day. Shooting a "milk cow" bison standing in a paddock isn't of interest.
