This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

This episode is brought to you by FHF Gear, American-made gear that's built to take a beating.

I've used their bino harnesses and chest rigs from the swamps of Florida to the mountains of Alaska,

and they've held up every step of the way.

When you're in a rough country, wet, cold, dusty, and hot,

you don't have to wonder if your gear can hang. And with FHF gear, I don't have to. It's tough,

practical, and it's built by folks who understand the demands of the wild. Check it out at

This season on Blood Trails, each story begins with a hunter stepping into the wild, but not all of them come back.

I'm Jordan Sillers, a journalist with over a decade of experience investigating stories about hunting, fishing, guns, and crime.

Join me as we track the truth through tangled cover and cold case files,

where every trail tells a story, and every story leaves its own trail of blood.

Blood trails. Listen now on Spotify. My name is Clay Newcomb and this is a production of the Bear Grease podcast called the Bear Grease Render, where we render down, dive

deeper, and look behind the scenes of the actual Bear Grease podcast.

Presented by FHF Gear, American-made, purpose-built, hunting and fishing gear that's designed to be as rugged as the places we explore.

Yep.

Primetime.

Mm-hmm.

And I see a gilly suited figure

come across my trail camera.
