About Elephant hunting
Elephants are the world’s largest terrestrial mammal and found in scattered pockets across sub-Saharan Africa. Elephants are split into three species, of which two are found on the African continent, namely the African Savanna Elephant and the African Forest Elephant. The more common of the two, the Savanna Elephant is more widely spread as the Forest Elephant is limited to the jungles of Africa. Elephants can be hunted in eight African countries, namely, Cameroon, Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. Botswana has the highest concentration of Elephants and now once again open for hunting after being closed for a number of years.

When to hunt Elephant?
Elephant hunting season is open year round in Zimbabwe and for the enclosed areas in South Africa. In Mozambique the season is open from April 1 to November 30. The Zambian hunting season runs from the beginning of May to the end of November. In Tanzania the hunting season is from 1 July to 31 December. Botswana’s hunting season runs from 1 March - 30 November. The best time to hunt Elephants is the dry season as these big beasts need to drink water on a regular basis and find food for the better part of eighteen hours a day. This forces them to keep moving in their search for food and water meaning that you will have a better chance of cutting the tracks of a large bull.

Traditional Savanna Elephant hunts are conducted on foot using trackers to find a good size spoor and the track the animal down. The starting point is normally a road or track and in some instances a watering point or salt licks. Make sure you have comfortable boots and plenty of water as it can take many hours of walking to catch up to an Elephant. Only once you have a visual will you know if this is a suitable trophy or not. If not the process starts all over the next day and the next. In many instances this exercise can be repeated up to 12 days in a row and in some cases you will even go home empty handed. Elephants are generally shot at close range so you will need to stalk in close to the animal always taking into cognisance any change of wind direction as Elephants have a great sense of smell.

These incredible animals are relatively easy to read, most of the time... this young bull was just testing his limits with the hunters before they challenged him off.

Why hunt Elephant?
Elephant hunting is probably the toughest hunt you will ever experience in Africa. It’s a test of your endurance, patience and staying power to repeat the same long follow-up day after day. It can be the most frustrating and disheartening hunt until your trophy is down, then there is no bigger euphoria rush that you can experience on a hunt. Apart from the adrenalin rush of hunting these big beasts and the potential for you to become the hunted if an Elephant is wounded or meeting up with some angry tuskless cows in Zimbabwe, you will learn a lot about your capabilities and stomach to handle dangerous situations. The ivory is normally the prize goal of the hunt and has been for centuries.
