Right: My first successful elk hunt this Fall. I believe I am the first Tahltan female hunter to have a successful hunt. Fletcher and my husband, Shaun Dennis, were with me. They are amazing hunting companions.

Bottom-right: Our first successful moose hunt this Fall. It fed more than two Tahltan families.

Fletcher, this Fall, with his first porcupine kill. Fletcher is the grandson of Rudy and Linda Day, and June and Cliff Dennis. He was super excited. He helped his dad with the gutting and scorching of the porcupine, as they prepared the meat for gifting to Elders.
