How To Be A Bear Hunter No. 16 Following The Feed With Dante Zuniga-West

In this sixteenth in our mini-series, How To Be A Bear Hunter, we talk to Dante Zuniga-West about hunting bears this fall when the blackberry crop is late. We discuss setting a stand for bear and visualizing its approach, as well as Dante’s favorite bear gun and loads. Dante came to hunting by way of prep school in Bel Air. He is the offspring of educators, an educator, he holds a master’s degree from an art institute and he is a blaxican. He grew up searching out and reading hunting magazines then found his way into the Northwest. Now he lives on a farm in western Oregon and hunts bear and deer and grouse in the Coast Range.
