Mark Peterson sits down with world-travelling hunter and YouTube creator Pedro Ampuero. Raised in Spain and obsessed with adventure since childhood, Pedro has spent years tackling some of the most remote environments on the planet in pursuit of wild game and then shares those journeys with a global audience that anyone would be proud of. Mark and Pedro dive deep into international hunting, from Mark’s recent expedition to Tajikistan for Urial and Markhor, to Pedro’s most grueling and dangerous hunts, including his Snow Sheep quest in Kamchatka, Russia, where brutal weather and rugged terrain tested his endurance and grit. Along the way, they explore the personal side of the hunting lifestyle: family, fatherhood, goals, and raising kids with a passion for the outdoors. Pedro is one of the most relentless, dedicated hunters Mark has ever met, and his stories reveal what it takes to thrive mentally, physically, and emotionally in some of the toughest environments on earth where he has pushed even the toughest guides and outfitters to their limits. If you love hunt stories, ambitious goals, and hunters who push their limits—this episode delivers. Enjoy the journey.
