Охота на Серую Антилопу Косулью

Grey Rhebuck (also known as Vaal Rhebuck) are an endemic species found in the high grassy mountainous regions of South Africa, Lesotho and Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland. This species is primarily hunted in the Eastern Cape but is also available in the Western Cape, Free State, Kwazulu-Natal and Mpumalanga Provinces of South Africa. In the past, the odd package hunt has also been made available in the highlands of the Malolotja National Park in Eswatini, mainly as a fundraising exercise for the Park.

Living out on the open grassy mountain slopes these animals are quite easy to spot. They have unbelievably good eyesight and a sixth sense. They are often watching you from a long-distance before you have even seen them. The best is to glass the mountain slopes from a high vantage point or sneak to the crest of a hillside and look over the edge. Nine times out of ten they will be looking back at you and you will then need to plan your stalk very carefully to decrease the shooting distance as much as possible. Wind and snow often play a factor in these hunts making the required long-distance shooting quite difficult.
