CAPERCAILZIE & BLACK-COCK
HUNTING
150 - 750km. of Moscow, in
Tver, Yaroslavl, Novgorod, Kirov regions.
Cock of the wood and black grouse.
Perhaps there isn't a bird about which there are so many
rumours and legends, as about the Cock of the wood. Partly
these rumours have grounds. During mating strong cocks
can attack foxes, wolves, and... even people, putting
them to flight. "The highest mind" won't leave
without wounds and bruises. Films are made about all that.
Weight of cocks usually varies within 3.5 - 7 kg., and
the last weight can already be considered as great luck.
Black-billed capercaillie. It is a Far East species. It
is smaller, (except for a tail) more slender and... it
is not deaf at all so hunting for it in a traditional
spring way loses its sense. Cocks loftily and sedately
walk before each other and... do not go into action. The
biggest cock got in this region weighed 7kg.
