In America, the following animals have been used.
-horses
-mules
-burros
-llamas
These animals are used variously for riding, packing gear and hauling taken game out of the field.
One beast of burden I've never heard used in America by sportsmen afield is the camel.
I can't find anything on YouTube or Google regarding hunting in America by camel. They might work best in the Southwestern deserts
for "humping" your stuff and "hoofing" it over the sand with your fresh kill of deer or bighorn sheep, stupid pun.
Camels should be able to be trained to sack out to gunfire since the American army experimented with them in the 1800's.
Whether fresh blood smell will spook a camel, I don't know.
I don't know if sport hunters use dog sleds also. They might work in the snow of the North.
Would dog sleds and/or camels, in theory, be a bad idea for certain kinds of North American hunting? If so, why?
The use of pack/riding animals is more appealing because you don't have engine noise as from atv's and such to destroy the peace in Mother Nature.
