Details:
The number of wolves in the St. Petersburg region and Karelia has been increasing for the past two decades despite active hunting, which has a huge adverse impact on the number of moose and wild boar in this part of Russia. We offer a traditional driven flagged wolf hunt. This requires locating a pack, consisting of 3 to 6 animals, surrounding it with a rope approximately 3.5-5 miles (5-8 km) long with a narrow opening where shooters are located, and pushing wolves towards the shooting line. Shots are taken from a short distance, usually using 12 gauge shotguns loaded with buckshot. Drives are organized every other day. Hunters should be in good physical condition, dressed in layers and wearing snow camo suits. Additionally, hunters can choose to hunt lynx or wolverine with the dogs.
