Description: We bring to your attention two original photos of wolf hunters with a hunting trophy and a real hunting story told by one of these hunters.Events took place in the USSR in the 50s. Translation of the inscription:"Incident at the mine"This happened at the Shcheglovka mine in the Makeevsky district of the Stalin region. Two years ago, installers removed metal structures from the mine territory to a distance of 600-700 meters. The team of Vasily Yezhov arrived for the installation of metal structures. Approaching the metal structure, Vasily saw a large gray dog lying down. When he tried to drive her away, she did not run away, and bared her fangs, she began to approach him. Vasily realized that in front of him was not a dog, but a wolf, and from such a danger he was forced to flee. He climbed up the metal structures and from there began to throw metal objects at the wolf (bolts and metal dies that were at hand). They managed to hit the wolf with a metal object, which, with its tail between its legs, was forced to run away. Only after a while, making sure that the wolf was gone, and the danger had passed, Vasily was able to return to the mine. He told Brigadier G.P. Usaty about what had happened. and another local hunter. The next day, the brigadier and the hunter (in his name is the story) took their guns with them and went to look for the beast. After a few hours of searching, the animal was found at the edge of a mown wheat field, near the trees. It was far away to shoot. We decided to go around the field. To no avail. The wolf noticed them and went to the mine. Later they managed to track down the wolf's den and arrange a hunting ambush there. After a while, the wolf decided to return to the den, which was next to the metal structures of the mine lying on the ground. The hunters waited for the wolf to carefully go around its territory, sniff everything around and lie down in the den. They thought the wolf was getting ready for bed. After waiting another hour, the hunters began to go around the wolf from both sides. Approaching the wolf at a distance of about 30-40 meters, the brigadier Usatii G.P. shot him first. The wounded wolf rushed directly at the second hunter, who was not taken aback and shot at the wolf a second time. The second shot was fatal for the wolf. Later it turned out that it was a she-wolf.RARE!!!Shipping – registered air mail ! в100% OLD USSR ORIGINAL!Very good for collection !
