Dr. Andrew Derocher is a polar bear researcher from the University of Alberta, and he is a hunter. He muses about the stress of researching bears and how research is his work, but hunting is his escape. Andy reflects on his hunting skills and whether they help him as polar bear researcher and explains what his favorite way to hunt is. He discusses the differences between how he hunted 20 years ago versus how he hunts today. Andy laughs at how dumb luck factors into hunting and whether being a hunter makes a person a better wildlife scientist.
