How to Hunt the Eurasian Pine Marten
- Move very slowly and listen; these animals often give themselves away by sound first.
- Use a small, in-class load so the trophy and pelt stay intact.
- Sit near water edges, burrows or feeding spots in the right window rather than walking.
- A dog helps with tracking and recovery in thick cover.
- Trophies: only max-difficulty animals can reach diamond. Check the trophy rating with binoculars, use in-class ammo and kill with one clean shot to pass the harvest check.
