Arctic Wolf Hunt in Canada's North
Our Arctic Wolf hunts coincide with the northern migration of the over half a million Qamanirjuaq and 200,000 Beverly caribou herds as they move northward out of the tree line to their traditional calving grounds.
Hunters and their guides travel by snowmobile to the west of Arviat in searching for fresh wolf tracks in areas where there is a good concentration of caribou. The wolf packs follow migrating caribou and once fresh tracks are found, the wolves are then tracked by snowmobile. When ever possible, tracking is done downwind or at least crosswind.
Usually the hunters and guides don't have to track for more than a day when the wolves are jumped and spotted. Accommodations are in comfortable insulated tents. Fixed camps are not used because flexibility and mobility are the keys to giving hunters an excellent opportunity to harvest a trophy Arctic wolf. Clients are expected to help out the guides in setting up camp and with the camp chores.
It is because of this mobility of being able to camp "on the trail" that we have enjoyed virtually 100% on mature Arctic wolves. Pelts of the Arctic wolf come in a variety of colours from almost white to black but most have grayish blue tinge to their fur.
Our spring hunt is a 5 day package based on 2 hunters.The hunts commence out of Arviat, Nunavut.
