MANTRACKER
THE CHASE IS ON
Show Introduction
The Bonterra Production company who produced the show for Outdoor Life Network, calls it "a gritty adventure series that pits an expert tracker against two weekend warriors in a chase through the wilderness."
CTV Media says "Get ready for the ultimate cat and mouse chase through the Canadian Wilderness"
Terry Grant
looking for his prey.
The "prey" take off into the bush. How they escape is up to them. This isn't about rules or money - just bragging rights. The prey are looking for glory and the Mantracker is looking for them.
Throughout each half-hour reality episode, a pair of perfect strangers from different walks of life team up and attempt to outwit and outrun Mantracker to the finish line. For an adrenaline-charged 36 hours, the pairs travel through extremely difficult terrain including Alberta's foothills. The Prey has a head start - but Mantracker has a horse - and these adventurers have a target on their backs every step of the way.
On horseback...
and on target.
Who is the Mantracker?
Terry Grant is a cowboy and volunteered with the Foothills Search and Rescue Team for approximately 13 years. Like other members of his SAR team, he participated in various missions, training courses and exercises in the area south and west of Calgary, Alberta.
Like so many currently active in the search and rescue community today, Terry received his mantracking training primarily through instructor Dave Hanna, and ongoing practice with his team. As is mistakenly claimed within the media promotions for the show and as anyone within the Alberta search and rescue community already knows, the RCMP offers no training in mantracking.
The Mantracker spies
something over his left shoulder.
