A re-post from GD with the OP's permission, enjoy and no PETA crap
Quoted:What you are about to watch is a very rare 100% LEGAL Idaho Gray Wolf hunt from our sister company NightGoggles.
Statistics prove that no group does more for wildlife conservation than hunters. Since their introduction to the lower 48, the Canadian Gray Wolves has reeked havoc on the ungulate game herds that reside within the greater Yellowstone ecosystem. More recently, that destruction has had far reaching effects on Elk, Moose, Deer, and livestock populations all across the U.S. and Canada. Keeping predatory game populations in check is the only way to restore balance to the system.
Thought I would post up Tom Austin's bio. He is the caller in this Vid and is TNVC's sister company (NightGoggles) Director of Operations
Tom Austin
Tom Austin's passion for the outdoors runs deep. His father, an avid outdoorsman, instilled the love of hunting, fishing, camping and sport shooting in Tom at an early age. His childhood was filled with high adventure. Barely a day passed by when Tom didn’t have a fishing rod or firearm in his hands enjoying Gods creations with friends and family.
In his early twenties, Tom entered the Utah State Peace Officers and Training program, graduating with honors, producing a perfect score at every pistol qualification earning him the award of Top Shot at the academy.
Upon graduating, Tom was quickly recruited as a Police Officer where he served the citizens proudly as he climbed the chain of command from patrol to investigations. There he was assigned to operate as an Under-Cover Agent of an elite unit of the department known as the Narcotics Strikeforce. The unit trained for and performed high-risk operations and no-knock warrants with the SWAT Team, FBI, ATF, ICE, and DEA. During his tenure as a Police Officer, he received several Mayor’s Awards, a Distinguished Unit award for outstanding teamwork in hostile situations, two Life Saving awards, and the rank of Expert Marksman. He’s certified in several NRA disciplines and enjoys sharing his knowledge and experiences about firearms and his love for the second amendment.
After nearly a decade, Tom resigned from the police force to pursue his dream as a Professional Hunter. His goal was to not only do things differently, but to up-the-ante by guiding hunters that wanted the ultimate challenge coupled with the ultimate thrill. Nothing is more exciting or daunting than hunting another hunter. As a result, Tom opened his "predators only” guide service aptly called Predator Strikeforce. He literally hunts predators from Canada to Mexico and every hilltop and valley floor in between. As an added challenge, Tom films the hunt for his clients using broadcast quality equipment giving the hunter an opportunity to relive the hunt though the footage he captures. His footage has been seen on The Outdoor Channel, Sportsman's Channel, Weather Channel, and Wild TV.
When Tom isn't traveling the country for Predator Strikeforce and NightGoggles where he is the Director of Operations, he is writing editorials for Predator Xtreme magazine, Outdoor Life, AR Guns & Hunting, Trapper & Predator Caller, Petersen's Hunting and Hunting Illustrated just to name a few. He's been awarded "writer of the year" and "column of the year" for three consecutive years. He serves as Pro Staff and Field Staff for several cutting edge companies in the outdoor industry where he conducts predator hunting seminars and serves as a guest lecturer for hunting events around the globe.
For Tom, hunting, firearms and the outdoors aren't just an obsession, but a way of life.
