Bullwhip - Use As Hunting Weapon

Use As Hunting Weapon

Simon Tookoome, a Canadian Inuit and expert bullwhip handler, was known to have used one to hunt ptarmigans, caribou, and to kill a wolf:

"Tookoome took the advice to heart and began hunting bigger animals with the whip, even after his family acquired a rifle and a snowmobile. He took down several caribou, and once even used it to kill a wolf that he had shot and injured. He kept the whip with him because operating a rifle was too expensive."

Famous quotes containing the words hunting and/or weapon:

    “The French manner of hunting is gentlemanlike; ours is only for bumpkins and bodies. The poor beasts here are pursued and run down by much greater beasts than themselves; and the true British fox-hunter is most undoubtedly a species appropriated and peculiar to this country, which no other part of the globe produces.”
    —Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    “Temptation is the woman’s weapon and the man’s excuse.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
