THE HUNTING AREAS: SELOUS GAME RESERVE
Named after the Englishman Sir Frederick Selous, a famous big game hunter and early conservationist, the Selous Game Reserve was designated UNESCO World Heritage Site 1982 due to the diversity of its wildlife and undisturbed nature. With over 21.000 square miles of stunning and diverse flora and fauna, the Selous is one of the largest faunal reserves in the world. While there are many habitat types, the deciduous miombo woodlands dominate. Most typical animals of savanna areas are found here in greater numbers than in any other park or reserve in Africa. These include Elephants, Hippo, Cape Buffalo, Leopard and Crocodiles. The Concession we hunt is combining 4 prime hunting blocks that are bordering each other providing hunting ground of 444.500 hectares (1.720 square miles / 4.445 square kilometers).
