High
Arctic Outfitters -[Muskox, Barren
Ground Caribou] Unspoiled Muskox hunting in
Canada's North. Enjoy the comforts of our modern
lodge and facilities while hunting for one of
the worlds most exotic animals, the prehistoric
Muskox. The Inuit call the muskox, "umingmak"
which roughly translated means "skin like a beard".
This is an able description of this shaggy beast
which is a throw-back to the ice age. The muskox
is a perfect example of arctic adaptation. To
help the muskox move over the soft spongy tundra
in the summer it has large saucer sized hooves.
On the frozen tundra they also serve as digging
tools to expose lichens and small sedges covered
by the winter snow. Our muskox hunt is truly a
unique opportunity for the intrepid hunter. It
makes an exotic trophy, and is a deliciuos gourmet
delight.. Victoria Island has over 50,000 Muskox,
one of highest concentrations in the world. We
have a 100 % success rate on our Muskox hunts.
Just recently we have been able to add Island
Caribou to make for an excellent combination hunt.
