Joycey 20 Posted May 19, 2015 Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 Dont get me wrong, ive been hunting all my life, but what i hunt is what i need, as in food, either for me or my animals. im not the one just to go out killing stuff for no reason, i agree deers need culling and same with badgers, but zebras and giraffes!!!!!!! why would you want to kill loads of them for no reason.... i just dont get it thats all...

Hi Joycey We use most of the meat, and any excess meat gets sold to the local butchery and is distributed into the local network. We cull mostly deer and zebras as there is a big market for the skins. The meat also gets utilized in the poorer communities. As to Giraffe it was hunted as a trophy, but i have seen areas where giraffe needs culling as well. When the numbers start getting to big for an area they can be devastating to the area . Hope this helps? Regards 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bos en Dal Safaris 20 Posted May 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) No worries about the questions. I enjoy sharing!!! The hunter booked a cull hunt with us, this would be the female kudu and sub adult male animals he shot! This is purely part of our sustainable hunting management plan. Every year we set out a quota for all the animals we need to be hunted!! Not all the animals are of trophy quality so we do cull hunts that would normally include species more common to the area!! This paticular client added Black wildebeest, gemsbuck and girrafe as he wanted trophies of these animals!! Oh yes you can definately eat girrafe, tastes better than Zebra!! And i know of a few lodges that shoot younger males for the restaurantes. I'll safe you some? Edited May 19, 2015 by Bos en Dal Safaris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
