Where to hunt Common Duiker
Common or Grey Duiker, unlike most other species of Duiker, prefers savannah habitat to rainforest, and is therefore referred to as bush duiker. Its range covers all parts of Trans-Saharan Africa where there is sufficient cover, and hunting opportunities for this species are found in South Africa, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Namibia, Botswana, Tanzania and the savannah part of Cameroon.
Price distribution
Common Duiker rarely gets to be the main species a hunter targets on a safari. However, it is often included into the trophy list of a plains game hunt, or thrown in for good measure in package deals. The shooting fees for Common Duiker range from as low as $200-$300 in Namibia, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana, to $500-$700 in Tanzania and Mozambique.
