RE: Quebec Winter Caribou Hunting
To all you Caribou hunters out there - Happy New Year and lets look forward to a more successful 2007 for all hunts.
I have talked to the CAN GEO guys and infered Global warming and they told me I was nuts. There take on it was the signs that the Caribou pay attention to to let them know how the winter is going to be - dry fall, early vegitation changes and even insect hibernation which all seemed to point to a harsh winter during the fall. They think is this what began to push the animals south early as we all say from the maps.
Another bit is info and Indian told me was that 150K animals fell through the ice and drowned some where uptop - the CAN GEO guy did confirm that something of this sort had happened but it was not real public. He thought this was a reason they held at LG3 for a while in November.
I look forward to another season and map watching with all you guys and also a 2007 hunt loaded with big bulls and a good hunt for everyone.
Bon Jour mates.
