Hunting methods
Being a shy territorial animal, these animals prefer long grass but will wander out into the open or onto road verges to graze. They are most active in the early morning and evening and will rest up in the shade during the heat of the day. When alarmed they will lie flat in the grass with its ears pinned back to avoid detection. This behaviour comes in quite handy if you are a bow hunter who can pinpoint the spot where the Steenbok is concealing itself and sneak in very quietly to take a shot. They will flush at the last minute, taking off a great speed. Sometimes they are known to stop and look back which will give you an opportunity to take a shot. Often hunted as a chance encounter
Why hunt Steenbok?
Steenbok, like most small antelope have super refined senses with great camouflage making for a most challenging hunt. The “Tiny Ten” also known as the Pygmy Antelope may not the most fearsome but will really test a hunter’s patience, perseverance and hunting skills. Hunting Steenbok may be one of the easier species in this class. However, once you have specially hunted one or two of these tiny antelope by choice, you will be totally hooked and try to get the rest. They make wonderful full mounts or great pedestal mounts when combined with some of the other small species of similar size. Best of all, they take up very little space in your trophy room.
