Hunting methods

Firstly you need to find some good suitable White-tailed Mongoose habitat. Then you need to dress warm as you will be out for a good few hours driving around in the dark on the back of a pickup. The wind chill factor will be a lot colder than expected even though you are hunting in Africa. With the use of a spotlight, you may spend many hours looking for a suitable trophy. There is no plan other than to just keep driving and looking until successful.
