Macedonia: a nonpresumable perspective on the well known trophy

Don’t you think it could be amazing to correlate the trophy you need and the glimpse on it back in the history?
Hunting is one of the oldest human occupations, psychologists say that the desire to hunt is almost an instinct, hunting scenes can be seen on rock paintings, on the walls of rulers palaces and on works of art. A trophy animal is perceived quite otherwise if you look at its “historical face”. One of the most popular mountain trophies of Europe is Cretan Ibex or Kri-Kri (Capra aegagrus creticus).
The name of Cretan is nonrandom, since the subspecies was adopted on the Island few thousand years ago from Anatolia. The Ibex did contribute into the art of the Minoan civilization – one of the mysterious cultures of the Eastern Mediterranean Bronze Age (2700 – 1400 years BC ). Archaeological excavations on the island discovered murals paintings of Kri-Kri. And some researchers are convinced that there had been a religious worship of it in the ancient epochs. Well the best place to hunt Kri-Kri in Europe is Macedonia. The average score of the harvested trophies in the country varies around 60 cm (CIC).
By the way the Ibex is within the list of the Capra World Slam and it’s not only a beautiful animal to decorate the trophy room but could let you add a point to the slam and get the reward afterwards. It was a Kri-Kri hunting aim in Macedonia for our devoted clients and friends of ProfiHunt Victor Kim and Eduard Benderskiy. Being sophisticated “mountaineers” with the certain experience of hunt Victor Kim and Eduard Benderskiy managed to harvest their Kri-Kris on the second day of their trip. The results are as following: 78 cm Eduard Benderskiy and slightly less than 60 cm Viktor Kim. Hunter luck turned its face and both of them completed their collections with other animals as well. The four day results are serious. Eduard Benderskiy: the second trophy of Kri-Kri, Raska sheep and a wild goat; Victor Kim: Balkan chamois, thar, a wild goat and Raska sheep.
Congratulations!
