This section contains several species that usually are not recognized by the the hunting clubs as a part of some large group of game animals. However, these are coveted trophies, very popular among international hunters. Two of them are included in the African Big Five, namely an elephant and rhinoceros.
From the legend of St. Hubertus, patron saint of hunters: “wildlife must not be just hunted, but equally important is the conservation and understanding of the importance of wildlife in nature and based on this, the restraint of one’s passion.”
The hunting method depends on the species desired. For example, hunting for an elephant and rhinoceros is very dangerous and demands thorough preparation, acute shooting and teamwork with your professional hunter. The harvested trophy is a confirmation of the shooting skills, self-determination and courage of the hunter.
