Game Hunting in Tanzania
Tanzania is a destination that many hunters dream of hunting in. Renowned for its exceptional array of species (from dangerous game and African plains game, through to specialty species), the destination combines the experience of authentic African hunts and large hunting trophies with a diverse ecosystem alive with abundant game.
While there are more cost-effective destinations in which to enjoy a hunting safari, Tanzania remains a sought-after destination, offering hunters unforgettable hunting adventures.
The area is alive with game species, from dangerous and specialty game to a wide array of African plains game species. It is home to Africa’s Big 5 and Dangerous 7, capturing the opportunity to hunt some magnificent deadly and dangerous game in an untamed and wild environment. African plains game species abound, with beautiful trophies just ready to adorn a trophy room, including the greater and lesser kudu, Puku, Patterson’s eland, Suni, Coke’s and Lichtenstein Hartebeest, and smaller antelope species such as Robert’s Gazelle and Grant’s Gazelle.
The Lunda Nkwambi GCA Hunting Block in Tanzania
- This large hunting block is renowned for its remoteness, natural beauty, array of wildlife as well as its diverse ecosystems.
- The Lunda Nkwambi GCA is approximately 403,8 square miles in size.
- It is situated in the western part of Tanzania and is less populated than other regions as well as being more remote, making it the perfect region for hunters to enjoy an authentic African hunting safari.
- The area features a variety of landscapes, including woodlands, savannas, and river systems. These in turn support a wide range of habitats for a variety of both African plains game and dangerous game species.
- The area is home to many notable species, including members of Africa’s Big 5, as well as many antelope species. In fact, it supports around about 70% of the huntable species in Tanzania.
- The Lunda Nkwambi GCA is seen as being one of the best hunting blocks that Tanzania has to offer, due to the excellent management of the wildlife populations, the sustainable management practices that maintain the wildlife populations, as well as the overall hunting experience that it offers hunters in the region.
- For hunters, it provides a memorable hunting experience, with the combination of its size, rich biodiversity, and relatively low human population all being major drawcards for game hunting enthusiasts.
- The area is also involved in several conservation efforts to ensure the ongoing sustainability of the area. These include structured conservation management through TAWA, community involvement in wildlife management, ongoing monitoring of wildlife populations, and various anti-poaching initiatives.
