Florida Whitetail

Whitetails (Odocoileus sp.) have been around a long time. The species is 3½ million years old, and they are such awesomely successful survivors that they have not changed over these millions of years. They did not change because they are so well designed they did not need to. Whitetails are the oldest living deer species.



Trophy Boar Hogs or Meat Hogs

HOGS (Sus scrofa) are not native to the Americas. They originated in Eurasia, and over time there were several major importations to North America. The pure Eurasian "Russian" wild boar is also Sus scrofa. In fact, our domestic varieties were all derived from the wild Eurasian boars. Wild hogs in the US strictly speaking are feral, that is, domestics that have reverted to the wild, but even though there are hundreds of variations, there is still a true, identifiable, wild hog type.


Osceola Turkey

Osceola Turkey (meleagris gallopavo osceola) The Florida osceola wild turkey, was named after a famous Seminole Indian chief of the early 1800's. There are to date approximately 75,000 Osceola turkeys that roam the southern portions of Florida. The Osceola turkey is the smallest and most challenging species of turkey to hunt. A mature tom turkey will only weigh 16 - 18 pounds in his peak breeding state.
