About The Animal
The Greater Southern Kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros) is one of the most iconic and impressive antelopes in Africa, known for its spectacular horns and striking appearance. The males have long, spiral horns that can reach over 120 cm in length, making them one of the most recognizable features of this species. They have a grey-brown coat with white stripes running down their sides, which helps camouflage them in their natural habitat.
These majestic antelopes are predominantly browsers and are often found in wooded or bushy areas. They are known for their agility and can jump impressively high fences with ease. Greater Southern Kudus are typically found in small groups, though males are often solitary or form bachelor groups.
2. The Hunting Experience:
Hunting the Greater Southern Kudu in South Africa is a cherished experience for many hunters, offering both a challenge and a reward. These animals are elusive and skilled at blending into their surroundings, making them a challenging hunt that requires patience and skill.
The expertise of Stephanus Jansen van Rensburg and his team is invaluable in these hunts. Their in-depth knowledge of the Kudu’s behavior and habitat, coupled with strategic stalking techniques, greatly enhances the hunting experience. The team ensures that hunts are conducted ethically, respecting the noble nature of this magnificent species.
