Kunio Katagiri is a master trapper and has been the legendary owner-chef of a gibier (wild game) restaurant for 45 years. Katagiri, who hunts all of his game meats by himself, never uses a gun. Instead, he uses homemade traps of his own design to capture wild deer and wild boar alive, risking severe injury to wrestle down large beasts with his bare hands. Once an animal is captured, the master trapper turns master chef. From trap to table, Katagiri does every step himself. He believes that enjoying every part of the animal is the best way to show appreciation to it for relinquishing its life. His simple menu of wild game sashimi, roasts, and hotpots is acclaimed among the finest of its genre. This program takes viewers inside Katagiri's respect for nature, his brilliant hunting techniques, and the secrets to his cuisine that attract customers from around the world.
