Brown bears of the Alaska Peninsula are favorites for all hunters in the world. Hunting a brown bear is the big game trophy that is a wish for each professional hunter. Many hunters visit this vast land of wild creatures to feel the adventure during guided Alaskan brown bear hunts. In Alaska, you will find many outfitters who guide the whole adventure trip of Alaska from check-in to final hunting.
Alaska Brown bears are giant than black bears and have a more bulging shoulder hump, less protuberant ears, and long, sharp claws. Shoulder hump and long claws are both food-related adaptations. The bone and muscular structure of the hump are adaptations for digging and running to catch a small animal for feeding. Despite their bulk structure, bears are surprisingly agile and fast.
These Alaskan beasts weight varies with the seasons. Brown bears lose weight in early summer days. They quickly become heavy in the late summer and fall, so brown bears are fleshy creatures that generally hunters prefer to hunt. Most mature bears weigh between 600 and 1200 pounds during the fall season, and monster size bears weigh up to 1,500 pounds. Brown Bear hides are prized and used in making rugs, blankets, skin coats, and much more.
When to hunt Brown Bear?
There are two primary hunting seasons: hunting in the spring after the brown bears come out of their shelters and during the fall. The first runs from April to May, the second – from the first week of September to 30 September. In the spring and fall seasons, these monsters actively feed to get enough fat or recover the loss of calories during winter sleep. While visiting Alaska in the fall season, you may get an opportunity to hunt Alaskan Yukon moose as many outfitters offer hunting trips at a combo price. In Alaska, state outfitters or guides offer you an option of guided moose hunt, or you can execute your moose hunt on your own, known as “DIY moose hunts in Alaska,” with necessary hunting gears.
Alaskan brown bears are likely to walk near coastal regions of rivers and seas in search of food and prefer to eat salmon. So, it is easy to hunt these creatures near coastal areas. In addition, less dense woods make it easier to see the bear and use tactics for hunting the beast. But the different feeding habits of bears call for different hunting strategies, or you need to take the help of a guide.
Hunting methods
In the Alaskan forest area, the most common way to hunt brown bears is to spot and stalk, especially along the Nushagak riverside when the bears feed on the fish. A similar exercise is practiced on the other side of Bristol Bay near the Aleutian Islands. Most of the bears in Alaska are hunted by attracting them. Experienced guides offer a variety of hunting methods, hunting by the chase, glassing bears, and creating a hunting site where bears feed.
Brown bear hunting is dangerous big trophy hunting, so be sure to have a rifle, bow, handgun with adequate bullet cartridges, and all essential hunting gears and listen to your guide well during guided Alaskan brown bear hunt trip.
Weather Conditions
The climatic conditions on the Alaska Peninsula variate what you might call good, often downright awful. But then the big bears live where the weather is worst, so you should be prepared to tolerate the weather. Bring some jackets, raincoats, and quilted pullovers during the fall when strong winds can be a significant factor. However, we see more bears in the fall than in spring. In the spring, the skin can be thick, the bears move around during the day, and the rain and wind are well below the falling level. The obligation is that we never know the exact moment when bears might come out of their den, so patience is a big factor.
During DIY moose hunting in Alaska, you must be physically fit and have all hunting gear and equipment with proper route planning of the hunting site. The base camp provides decent accommodation with food and other facilities.
