Episode 22: Eddy Hjelm

In this week’s episode of Nordic Tales and American Trails, we sit down with Eddy Hjelm, a passionate and experienced wild boar hunter.

Eddy has hunted with a variety of breeds, including East and West Siberian Laikas, Norwegian Elkhounds, and mixed breeds.

Excitingly, he’s set to import a new West Siberian Laika this February, and we dive into his plans for this addition.

Eddy shares his journey of hunting baying dogs on wild boar, a passion he’s pursued since the age of 14. We discuss the toughness of Laikas compared to other spitz breeds, the importance of dogs engaging wild boar during hunts, and much more.

Tune in for a deep dive into the world of wild boar hunting with one of Sweden’s most dedicated hunters. Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to join us on the trail!
