About this hunt

Uruguay is one if the few places in the world where you can still hunt wild perdiz. This bird is a native tinamou, is a great pilot flier when escaping from predators. However, these birds commonly move by foot and crunche down to hide from enemies; creating the ideal situation for dogs to pick-up their scent and enabling the hunter to shoot once it flushes up into the air. ​ After the early morning fog has lifted you will be walking along easy terrain with a dog and dog handler. The stillness of the setting will be only disrupted by the movement of the dog and the sudden explosion of the amazing sound of the bird's wings as it flushes up into the air. All who have experienced shooting perdiz love the thrill, and also very much so seeing the dogs work.
