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!
Did you know that artificial light can cause negative health outcomes?
That’s because unnatural lights, particularly those from our screens, are high in blue light.
Blue light from the sun sets our circadian rhythm, but today’s artificial lights are blue-light dominant, and that artificial blue light is throwing our bodies into chaos.
Eye strain is an obvious symptom of screen time, but so are headaches, fatigue, hormone disruption, metabolic damage, weight gain, and maybe worst of all… sleep disruption — and with it a whole host of other health issues.
Ra Optics produces the finest blue light blocking glasses. These scientifically-engineered lenses filter out unnatural blue light and protect you from the harmful effects of screen time and artificial lighting. They’re the only blue-blocking glasses on the market that use melanin to tint the lenses, the same pigment in your eyes and skin, which gives unparalleled color perception. These lenses are combined with stylish, exquisitely produced frames for a perfect solution to modern blue light problems.

Meet Scott leysath
Scott Leysath, aka The Sporting Chef, has traveled the country for the past 20 years, sharing his own brand of fish and game cookery with anyone willing to try a bite. Along the way, he’s worked beside some of America’s best restaurant chefs, but it’s the “real people” who hunt and cook creatures outside the realm of mainstream cuisine that interest Chef Leysath. He’s a hunter, angler, chef and “regular guy” outdoorsman who hits the roads less traveled for a glimpse at how his people hunt, fish, gather, trap and snare their catch and, of course, how they cook it.
