Где охотиться на Бантенга
The banteng (Bos javanicus) is a species of wild cattle that originally inhabited the jungle of South-Eastern Asia, both on the mainland and on such islands as Borneo and Java. It has several unique adaptations to its environment - for instance, the banteng can drink highly salinated water. Like many other bovines, it was domesticated, and introduced well beyond its original range, including the Philippines and Australia. In its native habitat the banteng is endangered, and hunting is prohibited. However, a feral population established itself in Australia’s Northern Territory, where it was introduced in the mid-19th century. The vast, untamed landscapes of Australia’s tropical savannas and dense woodlands provide ideal habitat for banteng. Located in some of the most remote wilderness of the Australian outback, the population is thriving, and provides one of the most unique and challenging, as well as sustainable and legal, hunting opportunities for those seeking this rare and exotic species.
Распределение цен
Banteng hunts in Australia are considered premium big-game experiences due to the species' rarity and the remote nature of the hunting locations. Trophy fees for banteng typically range from $10,000 to $15,000, with all-inclusive multi-day safari packages costing between $12,000 and $20,000. These packages generally include guiding, permits, accommodations, meals, and transportation within the hunting area. Due to the logistical challenges of accessing banteng habitat, most hunts are conducted as part of an extended safari, often combined with water buffalo, wild boar, and other Australian big-game species.
When to hunt Banteng?
The best time to hunt banteng in Australia is during the dry season, which runs from May to September. During this period, water sources become limited, and banteng are more concentrated around remaining waterholes, making them easier to track. The dry season also brings cooler temperatures, creating more comfortable hunting conditions and better visibility in the bush. Hunting outside of this period is more challenging due to the dense vegetation and increased mobility of the animals.

Banteng are notoriously elusive and wary, requiring a dedicated spot-and-stalk approach. Unlike domesticated cattle, wild banteng are highly alert and will quickly retreat into thick cover if disturbed. The hunt begins with locating fresh tracks and signs near water sources or grazing areas, followed by careful glassing to spot bulls among the brush. Stalking requires patience and stealth, as banteng have excellent senses and are known for disappearing into the bush at the slightest sign of danger. The banteng are often accompanied by birds, who are often the first to detect the hunter and warn the bull. Shot placement is crucial, as banteng are exceptionally tough animals with dense muscle and thick skin. A large-caliber rifle, such as a .375 H&H, .416 Rigby, or .338 Winchester Magnum, is recommended to ensure a clean, ethical kill. Study the anatomy of the banteng prior to the hunt, to make sure you can put the bullets into the vitals. Being covered by a professional hunter is essential, not only because the banteng themselves are likely to charge when wounded, but also because of other dangers of the outback, which range from man-eating crocodiles to poisonous snakes.
Why hunt Banteng?
Hunting banteng in Australia is a rare opportunity to pursue a species that is nearly impossible to hunt elsewhere. Its impressive curved horns, dark coat, and muscular build make it a striking and highly desirable trophy. The challenge of tracking and stalking these elusive animals in the vast Northern Territory wilderness adds to the adventure, making it one of the most rewarding big-game hunts available. Beyond the thrill of the hunt, banteng hunting in Australia supports conservation efforts and sustainable population management. Since these animals have no natural predators in Australia, regulated hunting helps control numbers. And the very opportunity to explore one of the most remote and untouched hunting destinations in the world makes a banteng hunt worthwhile.
