Waterbuck hunting in Botswana

We found 4 hunts
In Botswana, hunting Waterbuck is primarily possible in private game ranches and conservancies, as hunting in government-controlled areas has been largely restricted since the hunting ban of 2014. These private areas offer controlled and sustainable hunting opportunities for species like the Waterbuck. Key locations include the Tuli Block and areas near the Okavango Delta, where Waterbuck populations are well-managed. The Southern Waterbuck (subspecies) in Botswana is often found near water sources, as the species prefers habitats close to rivers and wetlands. Hunting typically involves tracking these animals in dense vegetation or along the edges of water bodies. The experience is challenging, requiring patience and skill, especially given the animal's cautious nature and the varied terrain of Botswana's hunting areas. Botswana's hunting season generally aligns with the regional climate, running from April to September, which coincides with the dry season when game is more concentrated around water sources. Strict regulations govern hunting activities; obtaining the necessary permits and hunting through licensed operators is essential. The private reserves in Botswana offer a unique blend of adventure and conservation, making it an attractive destination for hunting Waterbuck. Waterbuck are listed as a species of least concern by the IUCN.
