Fans of Jack Link’s meaty treats are not done “Messin’ with Sasquatch.” For this, we can be thankful. However, there are new beasts to contend with.

This eagle, for instance:

“Hangry Moments,” developed by Carmichael Lynch, will run alongside the existing “Messin’ with Sasquatch” campaign, also developed by Carmichael Lynch.

“We’re really proud of the work that we’ve done for Jack Link’s over the last decade,” said Mike Lescarbeau, CEO of Carmichael Lynch. “The ‘Hangry Moments’ campaign continues the funny, disruptive, and over-the-top storytelling that has become a hallmark of Jack Link’s advertising.”

Jack Link’s is a family owned and run business headquartered in the tiny North Woods town of Minong, Wisconsin. The company is also the fastest-growing meat snack manufacturer in the world.

They have wolves in northern Wisconsin!
