BLOOD ORIGINS | EPISODE 16 | “ONE WITH NATURE” WITH JAMSHID ARDALAN

Episode 16

Jamshid Ardalan was born in Tehran, Iran but is now a proud American. What Jamshid represents is the global nature, the global instinct of hunting. It doesn’t matter what you look like, nor what your accent is like, hunting is buried in all of our DNA. Jamshid was taken as a young boy into the mountains outside Tehran by his father to chase Chukar. It was in those mountains that his father, like yours and mine, instilled in him the ethics associated with hunting: respect for the wildlife, don’t take more than you need, always place conservation and restoration of the species before you hunting them. These lessons have carried through Jamshid’s life and now, almost full circle, he now stalks the mountains in California chasing Chukar like he did as a young man back in Iran.
