Use of scent when hunting
30/01/06 07:40 PM

A topic not confined to hunting in Africa.

But has anyone here ever used scent while hunting, ie your own nose? Has it helped you get the animal you could smell?

Some examples:

* Recently in India while trying to view tigers I could definitely smell them from time to time. In these instances it did not help at all.

* Foxes, yes it has helped. I have been able to smell where a fox has passed (and pissed!) and while it is not possible to track them - like a dog - I have found foxes in the vicinity

* "Stinkies" otherwise known was feral goat rams. You can find them if they are close enough by smelling them if they are upwind of you!

Maybe primitive man is not so far away afterall.
