Wild Boar Fever Film Fest | WILD BOAR FEVER 9 REDUX

[@GreenFarmingDocumentaryUS]

The Wild Boar Fever Film Fest truly captured the heart-pounding excitement of driven boar hunts across Europe. From the strategic planning to the precise marksmanship, every moment was a testament to the skill and dedication of the hunters involved. I couldn't take my eyes off the screen!

[@shadetreemech290]

Frans Albrecht, thank you for another excelent wild bore hunting film. You have captured both the over all theory of game management, the fine points of the hunt and not least of all, the thrilling action of the hunt. Your films do much to present our sport in the best light possible, especially to the latest generation that have not been exposed to this tradition.

[@johnnyrotten6191]

Waidmanns Heil! I have followed Franz for a year or two, now.....namely because I was so impressed the first time I watched him shoot in one of these boar hunting videos. While initially it was his shooting skills that grabbed my attention, later, it was his demeanor and philosophy of hunting sportsmanship and ethics I found most impressive. This particular video was the most impressive, yet, wherein I learned much regarding his knowledge base for identifying a particular class of animal on the run/hoof. I have never hunted America's feral hogs and, frankly, have no desire to.....it's simply not the same animal....nor does it command equal respect. But I would love to hunt Europe's wild boar. While living in Berlin in 1967-9, my father successfully hunted Boar and Roe buck.....and I have wanted to return to the land of my Grandfather ever since... Unfortunately, short of a miracle, this will never happen.....so I'll have to enjoy hunting them vicariously through these wonderful videos. My sincere gratitude for the enjoyment you provide...

These hunts are wondrous! Extremely challenging. So very rich in tradition, ethics sportsmanship and game management. So very different than in the U.S. If you have never done a European driven hunt for wild boar or pheasants, it should be on your list of must do's. These hunt will leave you changed. For those in the U.S who have property, you too can do the same types of items in terms of ethics, European tradition, game respect and management practices, it is so rewarding to do this. Best Regards

[@justdoingitjim7095]

For people in Texas that have property "ethics" such as not shooting females or young boars goes out the window! There are so many and they do millions of dollars in damage that they want every pig killed that we see. Even then then population explosion can't be slowed, much less stopped! Professional trappers who trap entire sounders can't even dent the population! We are completely overrun with wild pigs and no one has yet to come up with a solution for it! They even hunt them with silenced rifles with night vision and hunt them with full automatic weapons out of helicopters!

I maybe wrong but don't you have to be wealthy to hunt in Europe? I live in Kansas and the hunting and fishing are everywhere .You do not have to be a wealthy person to pursue game in the United States.

[@ymfemptyb6967]

@@rikertvonfulton16 you dont rally have to be wealthy. but throughout history it was considered to be a right that only belonged to noble families. they had big hunting grounds and peasants were only allowed to hunt so called "lower or lesser game" (small game) like rabbits, roe deer and birds. but wild boar and red deer were considered what you would call big game. but nowadays there is no gatekeeping anymore mostly. in germany for example the hunting exam and school costs are very high but in other countries around europe not so much.

[@michaelcayer8358]

No doubt, he's good, but so is that state-of-the-art, high speed, straight-pull bolt action Merkel Helix rifle he is using. There is no need to lift the bolt to operate the action & the bolt handle only needs to move about 2.5" which I think makes it the fastest manually operated bolt action rifle currently on the market. Starting at around $3500 US$, it better shoot fast!

Franz, absolutely fantastic and educational video. I can't wait to watch more. I thought (coming from the USA side of things) that gun ownership in Europe was virtually impossible. How do you get permission to own firearms? Also, the fanatical adherence to determining sex, age, and weight (?) prior to taking the shot, would seem to be a deterrent placed on the hunt in the first place and are unheard of in the USA. The boars are considered so dangerous to farming communities and cause untold millions of dollars in damages, states like TX and Louisiana have open hunting on these animals. Why on earth would anyone place any restrictions on these destructive animals that have no predator in nature. Gardis USA

I greatly respect the ways of boar hunting in Europe. I 100% agree on range time, accuracy, and ethics. In Texas and many parts of the USA, we hunt them however we can. The basis of that is the view on the boar as a problem and controlling it. No matter how many we hunt, whatever the method, trapping, helos, stalking, dogs, stands or tannerite, we cannot cull the herds enough to reverse their growth rates. This is the reason the state of Texas is again looking at mass Euthanizing them with blood hemorrhage bait drops. This is highly controversial and I don’t think they’ve implemented it yet. They are viewed as equal with mice and rats, except the amount of farm damage they do is drastically more.

Belgium does not have German as a first language. It has French and Flemish. Switzerland has three official languages. Luxembourg is French speaking. Out of six countries you only got 3 right. Why don't you do some research before enthusiastically sounding off like an uninformed kid. These are official languages, spoken is different, people speak more than one.
