Pack animals can open up hunting country that was otherwise inaccessible. Have you ever researched or seen a distant peak or basin and thought, I’m sure a big buck or bull lives there but there is no way I could pack in that far or pack the meat out? Pack animals are the answer to access more backcountry safely and ethically. Let us dive into the decision between horses, llamas, or goats. We will discuss when it’s right to use a pack animal, what costs you can expect, basic packing safety, how to avoid mishaps, and provide some of the best resources for pack animals to rent or hire.
