Substanance hunters usually means that they hunt for food ... which means that you go out hunting with the clothes on your back. That piece of "gear" is expensive and if you can afford it, you're not hunting for food.
I've been hunting for over 25 years and going through bush with those horns is going to get you caught up and getting your neck twisted.

Go ask the Oroqen then. Its their traditional hunting dress made from otter skin.
Or do you really believe this old man look like he is a member of the PLA?

Otters don't have horns.

The hat is called 密塔哈 mitahaar and is also made from otter skin. He had deer antlers as decorations. What is the problem?
BTW, the photos have the caption: old hunter Guo Bao Ling next to him as well. Not going to bother to upload the other 5-6 photos this time.
So hard to admit that you miss the call this time?
PS: Did you notice how similar the hat is to the one in Pic 2 from your link?

We were commenting on the antlers ... or did you not get the jackalope reference?

Sure.... sure.... what ever you say boss.
Check your attitude.

Perhaps the costume with the antlers is more of a ceremonial costume, used for special occasions. Being on camera with the PLA constitutes a special occasion so the hunter donned his best outfit for the photo op.

Brooms not Bombs.
The PLA is once again sending ill-equipped and ill-prepared troops to handle a natural disaster as was done during the Sichuan earthquake of 2008. Why send a couple snow plows when you have idle troops, brooms and shovels!
While the following photo release by the PLA daily may be good for public relations, it's hardly good use of military might. However, brooms and shovels are preferred over rifles and batons in clearing the streets of Beijing.

The officers and men are running to the main streets of the city proper to clear away the snow.
Recently, Beijing experienced a rare heavy snow. More than one thousand officers and men of a group under the Beijing Military Area Command stationed in Beijing rushed to the main streets of the city proper to clear away the snow, so as to facilitate the travel of the citizens and ensure the traffic open.

dear,I guess it's just a TV game to show a shooting competition between a PLA sniper and a native traditional hunter.Is this real or photoshopped???
