Hunting the Lynx with the Old Believers

Old Believer Fedya, aged 58, has killed seven bears in his time as a hunter

They were Old Believers. Their fore-fathers had first come to Tuva in search of Belovode.

Enjoyable read. However, commentators call BS.

Hilarious, the comments calling him a racist. After seeing Fedya's image, and reading his age, I dashed off for a haircut and trim. Neither I nor Fedya are eligible for a senior coffee at McDonalds, Old Men, hmmmpff!!
