Ojibwe Hunter: Ojibwe-giiyosewinini (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482004977)

James Chavers Jr.'s new book OJIBWE HUNTER is a collection of his true wildlife hunting, fishing and trapping stories that took place on Vince Shute's property before his Black Bear Sanctuary opened near the Bois Forte reservation in Nett Lake, Minnesota. Chavers' best friend of 40 years was Vince Shute whose land bordered the Bois Forte reservation in northern Minnesota. Shute became famous for his daily black bear visitors who were wild, not tame. There is a black bear sanctuary on Shute's former home-site in Orr, Minnesota today. This is where most of the stories take place in Ojibwe Hunter. "Over 30 years on Shute's land, I hunted moose, deer, timber wolves, lynx, bobcats, wolverine, and even shot a few wild dogs. I trapped fisher, rabbit, beaver, otter, muskrat, mink, weasel, raccoon and fox every winter. These true stories happen after I met Vince Shute in 1968 when I am 12 years old," according to Chavers. Charles Grolla, his nephew, contributed different chapters on animals, Traditional Ojibwe Hunting, and a glossary of Ojibwe words for all the animals on their Nett Lake-Bois Fort reservation.
