Hippo hunting in Tanzania ({{totalToursString}})
Hippo, Africa’s most dangerous animal is responsible for more human deaths than any other animal. They may look clumsy on land with a body like a tank and short stubby legs but unmatched in their aquatic habitat. Most attacks on humans occur at night when the animals have exited the water to feed on land.
Hippos are found in some of the larger rivers and swampy areas of the country. They are mostly hunted in the Selous, Rungwa and the Moyowosi River and swamps of Western Tanzania.
Hippos make for great Lion baits. Being large in size, they can be quartered and hung as bait off the ground higher than what Hyenas can reach. The Lions will need to stand on their hind legs to reach the carcass and the tough hide will ensure that the meat will not easily be picked off the bones before the hunters enter the blind early in the morning to see what scene awaits them.
Hippos are classified as vulnerable by the IUCN and do not require any special hunting permits. Hippos may only be hunted on a minimum of a 21 day hunting license in Tanzania.

Looking for best hunting trips for You...
Why do I see different types of prices?
There are two types of hunts on our platform: Package Hunts and Customizable Hunts. Package Hunts are fixed offers. Customizable Hunts usually allow you to select species and other parameters (number of hunters and guests, etc.) and then you can see the final price of your hunt.
"Package price" tag - this price tag is shown for package hunts, and it's a final price for an offer.
"Price from" tag - we show this tag for customizable hunts either when you search for particular species or when there is only one type of species in an offer. In both cases we include the minimum trophy fee available for this type of animal. It means that you see the final price of the offer, but you can also customize it (e.g. you can include a bigger trophy into your hunt).
"Daily rate fee" tag - this price does NOT include trophy fee. For example, if you are searching for a destination and we can't figure out the species you want, then we show this tag. You will need to include trophies from a hunt page.
