Talk:Wolf hunting with dogs

Caucasian Speerhunting, on foot, with caucasian wolfkilling breed
This video seems authentic. It can be found in many places on the internet, but for example it can be seen at youtube. It seems to show very old footage of a method of wolf hunting not described in this article: []. It is very interesting, and worth investigating if anyone is interested. If we could find a reliable source to back it up, it would be an excellent addtion to this article. For example, horses are not used; the speerman is on foot and is unable to arrive in time to help the dog. The dog does not bay, it attacks directly, using among other things body blocks, whereas other sources (perhaps most famously Teddy Roosevelt) seem sceptical that such a thing would be possible: wolves normally easily kill dogs. The dog appears to be a special breed or landrace, and this reader is very curious what the breed is. Chrisrus (talk) 19:38, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

The breed in question is a sarplaninac. I'm hesistant to add this breed here, as it is primarily a livestock guardian dog, and this isnt so much a wolf hunt, but a defence of livestock.Mariomassone (talk) 19:47, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Dangers section
Either explain what "body block" means in the context of a dogfight, or delete it. If someone is coming to this page to learn more about wolf hunting, they are unlikely to be familiar with such terminology. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.161.45.133 (talk) 21:55, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello. There is no need to be so aggressive. Wolf hunting is still not classed olympics. Try DogWhispererFans/message/85531 --Askedonty (talk) 22:06, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
