In the Kirov region, shooting brown bears has been permitted.
Starting from March 21, the hunting season for brown bears has begun in the Kirov region. It will last until June 10.
As specialists note, such hunting is considered one of the most challenging and requires serious preparation. Success depends not only on the equipment but also on knowledge of the animal's behavior.
One of the key elements is bait — an attractant used to lure the bear. Due to their keen sense of smell, the animal can detect scents even under a layer of snow, so the bait is securely fastened, most often with steel cables to a tree.
To increase the effectiveness of the hunt, the area around is cleared of underbrush, and shooting positions — known as "labaz" — are placed at height to minimize the spread of human scent.
Hunters are also reminded of the increased danger: a bear can reach high speeds over short distances, and a wounded animal becomes particularly aggressive. Therefore, shooting accuracy is crucial.
