Hunting with Golden Eagles of Kazakhstan Hunting with birds and hounds has always been considered an art. The actual course of hunting, graceful movements of animals, and the emotions and passions of the hunters made it a festival. A steppe hunter derived great pleasure from the tandem of a dog and a hunting bird. The Sunkar nursery, working with almost all kinds of hunting birds, operates in the Alma-Arasan gorge near Almaty. 160 km from Almaty is the Berkutchi (Eagle hunting) museum where complete information on the history of this kind of Kazakh hunting is available. Golden eagle hunting is one of the oldest methods of food hunting. Our ancestors in the Eurasian steppes mastered eagle hunting several thousand years ago, in the Andronov age. Proof of this fact comes from Bronze Age petroglyphs. In the west of Kazakhstan (in the Atyrau region in Aktobe gorge) a second "Golden Man" was found. His precious golden eagle was buried beside him. Eagle hunting was mainly practiced in the northern and central regions of Kazakhstan, while in the south hunters preferred to use hawks and falcons. Each bird was intended to hunt a particular type of animal. Apart from foxes, golden eagles usually catch corsacs and hares. Strong, rapacious, well-trained eagles proved useful for hunting hoofed animals and even wolves. Hawks are used for geese and bustards. Sparrow-hawks are as a rule used for hunting hares while goshawks are used for quail. Falcons and merlins proved to be excellent for hunting smaller birds. In the past, hunting birds were extremely expensive: a good golden eagle could cost 5-6 camels and a falcon cost 1-2 camels. Eagle hunting season starts with the first night frosts and continues from November through February. This schedule was set in olden days because furry animals have the best fur in winter. Falcon and Merlin hunting starts in late September when birds are preparing for migration and lasts until the first snow falls Click here or below link to join Hum-Our-Tum Group Blog to get Daily Beautiful Islamic Hadiths, Islamic Wallpapers, Islamic Quotes, Thoughts and Islamic Information http://quotesofislam.blogspot.com Important Links Worth Visiting Good Morning Friday Beautiful Inspiring and Motivating Quotes for the day.. http://goodmorningdays.blogspot.com/2010/08/good-morning-friday-motivating-quotes.html Beautiful Inspiring and Motivating Quotes for Friday.. http://goodmorningdays.blogspot.com/2010/08/good-morning-motivation-quotes-for-day.html Top 10 Most Beautiful Mosques around The World http://quotesofislam.blogspot.com/2010/09/top-10-most-beautiful-mosques-in-world.html Beautiful Hadith of Hazrat Imam Hussain A.S on Avoiding The Sins http://quotesofislam.blogspot.com/2010/09/hadith-avoiding-sins.html Khaali shishe bhi nishaan rakhte hain. http://romanticshayaris.blogspot.com/2010/09/khaali-shishe-bhi-nishaan-rakhte-hain.html Sehmi si nigaho mein khwab hum jaga denge http://romanticshayaris.blogspot.com/2010/09/sehmi-si-nigaho-mein-khwab-hum-jaga.html Pyar Kahete hai, Mohabbat kahete hai http://dostishayaris.blogspot.com/2010/09/pyar-kahete-hai-mohabbat-kahete-hai.html Sitaro ki bheed se churaaya hai apko .. http://dostishayaris.blogspot.com/2010/09/jab-koi-zamana-main-sahara-nazar-aaya.html Click here to get New Inspiring and Motivating Quotes and Thoughts daily to Inspire and Motivate you http://goodmorningdays.blogspot.com Click here or below link to join Hum-Our-Tum Group Blog to get Daily Beautiful Islamic Hadiths, Islamic Wallpapers, Islamic Quotes, Thoughts and Islamic Information http://quotesofislam.blogspot.com Click here to join Hum-Our-Tum Group for Latest Breaking news and information around the world, Inspirational and Motivational mails Click here or below link to join Hum-Our-Tum Group Blog to get Daily Beautiful Islamic Hadiths, Islamic Wallpapers, Islamic Quotes, Thoughts and Islamic Information http://quotesofislam.blogspot.com
