Hunting may be
a sport to some, but to most people around the world it is a way of life. If
you don't hunt, you don't eat. One great way to hunt with minimal effort is
Falconry. Why spend lots of effort when you can train a falcon to do it all for
you, then return the catch.
In the USA,
hunters get together in lodges, discuss tactics, setup cameras, figure out ways
to get more animals to come into their zone, then go out and kill as many as
possible in as short a period as possible.
In poorer
countries, this is not the case. Hunters are often poor, are forced to hunt in
vast tracts of land, and rarely trust their friends not to steal their catch.
Kazakhstan is a
land where hunting with Falcons and Eagles is still popular. Since this is
strange to the western world, a large tourist industry has been built on
encouraging people to come view the hunt, or even participate in it. Westerners
can participate actively or passively in the hunt, and depending on how much
they spend they can also be given a falcon or eagle of their own for the hunt.
