Firstly, find some suitable habitat which is often near a stream or in a drainage line. Then you will need to start a slow walk and stalk carefully scanning the edges of riverine vegetation for any movement. You can also try calling them by making a high pitched squeaking noise, although you still most likely need to ride your luck and hope to bump into a specimen. Being a trophy of opportunity it is unlikely that this animal will be high on anybodies's wish list.
Why hunt Egyptian Mongoose?
Egyptian Mongoose, also known as Ichneumon, are one of the larger species of mongoose in Africa. Man’s fascination with a Mongoose is created by their reputation of being snake killing machines. Having lightning- fast reflexes makes them a formidable opponent for a snake, even though they are not immune to a poisonous snake bite. No wonder one of these full mounted specimens would make for a good hunting story and conversation piece in anyone’s trophy collection.
