Chasseur de Nature – Marco Chabot Moose calf (1)

This calf of the year came within a few feet of Chasseur de Nature and his client on a frosty morning. The calf seems surprised to see the hunters. I can confirm that the hunters were also surprised to see him coming so close.

Mission
Become a Nature Hunter.

Vision
Chasseur de Nature aspires to become a model of hunting ethics and education in Quebec.

Nature Hunter
Chasseur de Nature produces films about moose, deer and bear hunting. The company also offers a hunting guide service. She also gives courses on hunting and moose calling. Chasseur de Nature has drawn up its own code of ethics and values. The company promotes these values and offers interested parties the opportunity to adhere to this code of ethics by becoming a member of Chasseur de Nature.

With nearly 45 hunting seasons under our belts, Marco Chabot and my father, Robert Chabot, have lived through many hunting stories. We started by writing these down in a notebook we kept at the cottage. Subsequently, I personally wrote about some of these stories in the renowned Sentier Chasse et Pêche magazine. Over the years, I’ve developed, experimented with and refined several hunting techniques. My collaboration with Sentier Chasse et Pêche magazine has also enabled me to share my knowledge by publishing articles on various hunting techniques.

Then, in 2007, it occurred to us to preserve our beautiful hunting stories on film so that we could share them with those around us. Our hunting scenes have given us a taste for teaching the basics of the sport to those around us. We aim to share our images and knowledge with the general public by producing hunting films, offering guiding services and offering courses from spring 2011.

We have also identified a set of values and a code of ethics that we aim to convey through our films, guide contracts and hunting courses. Hunting enthusiasts will be able to become members of Chasseur de Nature under two conditions: adherence to the code of ethics and payment of membership fees.

Following the wonderful scenes we collected in the forest, we turned our attention to writing books of hunting stories. In 2013, Chasseur de Nature published the first volume of 35 Hunting Stories. These are stories told by hunters who have harvested moose and deer in our Quebec forests. In 2015, Chasseur de Nature devoted itself to editing the 2nd volume of 35 Hunting Stories. Of course there are stories of mine in these books, and like all hunting stories, they’re all true!

The Chasseur de Nature adventure then continued in the Réserve Faunique de Rimouski. In fact, since 2016, I’ve been a moose hunting guide in the American plan in this territory operated by Sépaq. I feel privileged to be able to witness the euphoria experienced by the hunters I guide. It’s now all the more satisfying and rewarding for me to have someone harvest it than to harvest it myself.

As the name suggests, Chasseur de nature is all about nature. It’s also synonymous with being a lifelong hunter. In other words, a passionate hunter, a proud hunter, a hunter at heart.
