If you don't immediately think of food when you think of game season, then you've come to the right place. For you, game season means observing animals in the wild. To get the season off to a good start, I'll show you the most important products for observing wild animals by day and night.
The third season is the perfect time to go on a hike. If a quiet walk during the day isn't exciting enough for you, then I can recommend a night hike with wildlife spotting. With state-of-the-art technology, you can spot every animal in the forest thicket.
Capturing memories
Wildlife cameras - for a completely new way of observing animals
Wildlife cameras give you the opportunity to observe deer, stags and other animals undisturbed in their natural habitat. Thanks to motion detectors, you can capture beautiful animal shots. Nocturnal creatures can also be photographed in the deepest darkness thanks to the night recording function. With the help of memory cards, you can upload the images to your PC and analyse them. High-quality cameras send the photos directly to your smartphone in real time via an app.
With this product from Dörr, you always have everything in view. The camera can be controlled via WiFi and sends the images directly to your mobile phone.

Cameras - for detailed shots
You think wildlife cameras are great, but watching animals from a distance is only half as exciting. It's important for you to press the shutter button yourself and be there live. To avoid being spotted, a good zoom is essential for you. With the Canon camera and spotting scope, you can take wonderful pictures from a safe distance.

Observing from a distance
Night vision devices - for expeditions in the dark
The infrared radiation of night vision devices allows you to discover the secrets of the night. They bring you home safely after expeditions in the dark and allow you to observe shy or nocturnal animals. Thanks to their handy size, night vision devices are easy to take with you. For added comfort, certain models are equipped with carrying systems for attachment to a helmet or head.
The first-class night vision device from Pulsar has a range of 350 metres and comes with 5.5x magnification and 2x zoom. Thanks to the IR illuminator, which operates in the far infrared range of 780nm, the night vision device works perfectly even in total darkness.

Binoculars - for a clear view in daylight
Because binoculars are very compact and handy, they are the ideal entry-level product and ideal for observing wildlife and animals on hikes. You can recognise the magnification and lens diameter by the two numbers in the product name. The 10x50 labelling indicates a 10x magnification. This means that the image appears 10 times larger than with the naked eye. The objective lens diameter determines how much light is absorbed by the binoculars and is therefore partly responsible for the image brightness.
The Steiner binoculars are protected against shocks and vibrations by the rubber armouring. Thanks to the wide field of view of 101m at a distance of 1000m, you can also observe distant animals with ease.
Spotting scope - for use by day and night
Spotting scopes, also known as observation binoculars, differ from binoculars in that they are larger and usually equipped with a tripod. The 45° angled view makes observing comfortable. Some spotting scopes also offer the option of attaching different eyepieces. Depending on the intended use, you can adjust the magnification and field of view.
Thanks to the infinitely adjustable magnification of 20x to 60x, you can observe animals near and far with the spotting scope from National Geographic.
If watching wildlife isn't enough for you, you can bring your game home with you.
