Hvide Kyst Hunting Reserve-Greenland Map | theHunter: Call of the Wild | Page 1

Let's be real here- a Northern North America map would be great. And what better place than Greenland! (besides Canada, ofc)- but this post isn't about Canada! It's about Hvide Kyst Hunting Reserve, located on the southwestern coast of the Greenland territory.

Animals
Returning
-Rock Ptarmigan (C1)
-Goldeneye
-Reindeer (C6) *introduced to the map for story reasons, as reindeer do not naturally live in SW Greenland

New
-Barnacle Goose (C1)
-King Eider (C1)
-Greater White-fronted Goose (C1)
-Razorbill/Lesser Auk (C1)
-Common Loon (C1)
-Snow Goose (C1)
-Long-tailed Duck (C1)
-Red-breasted Merganser (C1)
-Arctic Fox (C2)
-Harbor Seal (C4)
-Hooded Seal (C6/7)
-Musk Ox (C9)
-Walrus (C9)
-Polar Bear (C8/9, depends on if you want it to match Brown Bears or not), spawns like the Bengal tiger/Snow Leopard

Regions
Western Side of map- tundra/coast with rock outcroppings and bushes
Eastern Side of map- snow w/ sparse trees and shrubbery
Transition biome (middle of map)- snowy/rocky taiga that looses trees the farther east you move

New Dog
Greenland Dog (yes it is literally called that)- breed of dog bred for pulling sleds. Ability to drag small to medium kills back to owner (C2-C5), much like a Labrador Retriever, or be a guard dog for the player based off of what perks are chosen.

Please feel free to leave any suggestions/corrections, I am not the best researcher 😅

maybe the walrus, musk ox or hooded seal could have like a g1 - like walrus g1 could be like black and brown spotted with some big tusks or hooded seal have a bigger hood thingy and like musk ox could have like really long and low horns??? idk random ideas 😭

This map could work as a North American Revontuli (as waterfowl and Ptarmigan is pretty much all you can hunt in Greenland outside of 6 - 7 mammals). I wouldn’t be opposed to this map. If it gives me another Reindeer map I’ll take it.

I will suggest adding Bearded Seal to the map, as they’re found in SW Greenland

Perhaps also swapping Ringed Seal for Harbor Seal? I’d prefer to see Ringed Seal added to Revontuli Coast as they can be hunted in Finland. Harbor Seals are more restricted in their range and Greenland would make for a great location to introduce them.

#

Also, Walrus and Polar Bear would both work nicely on the map.

Walrus are regularly found South of their typical range, therefore I don’t see a problem with having them here.

Polar Bears should be more common than the Tigers and Snow Leopards, as there are about 2,000 - 2,500 bears in the Davis Strait population which encompasses SW Greenland.

#

I’d recommend 4 other waterfowl species that can be found in SW Greenland. These are the Red-Breasted Merganser, Long-Tailed Duck, Barrows Goldeneye, and Snow Goose.

All are rather cool species that I feel are missing in game, as they could all fit on the maps we currently have.

here could be some variants (1: white | 2: specked | 3: heavily specked (or smth) | 4: sparsely specked) ???? idk

Not as a Huntable species. Birds of Prey are not hunted, rather they’re hunted with using Falconry. I wouldn’t be opposed to seeing them (and other Owl species) added for Falconry purposes, but as a Huntable species it would be weird.

It would also work to have them be an Ambient species where you can’t shoot them, but can still see them.

Snowy Owls are also not found in SW Greenland, with them breeding in Northern Greenland and occasionally straying into Western Greenland during the non-breeding season.

All good. I would definitely like to see them be a falconry species if we ever get that in game, because snowy owls are cool.

Even as an ambient species on say a Canadian Arctic map they’d be cool to see.

#

falconry in this game would be interesting ngl, it would kind of be like dogs or smth?? falconry could also be used hunting yotes and foxes (ive seen it been done)

#

just falconry for class 1 animals would be cool like theyre hard to hunt (for me it might be a skill issue)

All class 1’s except waterfowl and upland birds.

oblique wedge All class 1’s except waterfowl and upland birds.

For larger species (such as Great Gray Owls, Eurasian Eagle Owls, and Golden Eagles) they could work for class 2 species like Foxes.

open phoenix Jan 5, 2025, 2:43 AM

#

perhaps smaller owls like barn owls could be the ones hunting upland birds? or just no upland bird hunting lol - also i was told "eaglery" (falconry but w/ eagles) was a thing - probably is - do you think that could either replace/exist alongside owls or would it just be a repeat? eagles could hunt the muntjac, bobcat, musk deer, and MAYBE the lynx (c3)??

maybe in the perk tree you can either choose kill retrieval or guard dog. Like, perhaps swap the perks at the top of the tree for guard aspects and the bottom for kill retrieval?

i think spearing could work; its the traditional way of the inuit. for a more modern way, im not sure..
the way the inuit hunt walruses/seals is they go by dog sled to the thick ice sheet thingies walruses/seals bask on (also rocky shores) and then give it a fatal blow with a spear; i guess modern could be that but a spear-shooter thing..? like a spear crossbow
