When to hunt Livingstone’S Suni?
Suni may be hunted year round In South Africa and Zimbabwe. In Mozambique the season is open from April 1 to November 30. In Tanzania the season is from July to December. Suni inhabit dry riverine bush and Sand Forests, so the best months for hunting Suni are the dry months of June to October when the trees have lost some of their leaves and the foliage is not so dense. This not only improves visibility but lessens the chances of your bullet deflecting after taking a shot.

Being a shy nocturnal animal spends most of its day hidden in the dense undergrowth. It is best hunted on a walk and stalk, preferably on a well-used foot path or track. When walking in the forest the dead leaves on the forest floor sound like you are walking on potato chips which will alert your prey, so try to stay on a path. Look out for the orangey colour of the sunlight shining through its ear or a flickering tail which often give them away. Besides the conventional walk and stalk, two other hunting methods may be used. The first is to sit patiently waiting at one of the communal dung heaps as the males regularly visit these sites to mark their territory and the second is to call them by imitating the sound of an antelope distress call.
Why hunt Livingstone’S Suni?
Suni hunting can be extremely tough going on older hunter’s bodies that are no longer subtle to be bent over, ducking and diving through the thick bush known as “lumbago alley”. So if you are going to hunt Suni, do it as soon as you can in your hunting career. The challenge is first to find one and then to see it as they freeze at the first sign of danger becoming very difficult to see hidden amongst the undergrowth. A full mounted trophy makes for a wonderful display.
