Hunting like a real man!
Hey all,
Have been out for a couple of hunts with my mate and his pack of vicious killers and here is the footage!
Cheers,

Wonderful to see the bird and ferrets working in partnership

Re: Hunting like a real man!
I loved that , I have ferrets and hunt with nets , I just love how fast the reactions of the hawk is !
Broadband speed !!
Am interested in how the hawk reacts with the ferrets? , what stops him swooping down and nailing them ?
Great vidio

The hawk soon learns that the ferret will flush a rabbit which will bolt from the warren for the hawk to take, and as the ferret will emerge from the warren at a much slower speed mistakes by the hawk are unlikely to happen.

Very good that. I could get into that myself. Impressive bird is the Harris Hawk.
