Sacred Hunting
Do you feel called to hunting as a rite of passage? There are so many new or potential hunters who want to develop intimate relationships with wild animals and the landscape but who aren’t drawn to the commercialization of so much of modern hunting culture.
That’s where Sacred Hunting and its founder Mansal Denton come in. Mansal provides a space for new hunters to learn to hunt, stalk, harvest, and field dress animals, in conjunction with indigenous-style ceremonies that introduce you to hunting in a more intentional and spiritually connected way.
Mansal and his team will guide you through beginner hunts, and more advanced hunters will find unique opportunities available across the country and globe, such as Axis deer hunts on Molokai in Hawaii and even a Northern Siberia hunt with the Nenets people coming up in 2022.
There are only a few spots available per hunt, so go to SacredHunting.com and complete their 2 minute application. Discount available when you let them know you heard about them on the WildFed Podcast!
Salmon Sisters delivers frozen and smoked wild salmon direct to your door, as well as other wild Alaskan species like cod and halibut.
