We use most of the meat, and any excess meat gets sold to the local butchery and is distributed into the local network. We cull mostly deer and zebras as there is a big market for the skins. The meat also gets utilized in the poorer communities.

 

As to Giraffe it was hunted as a trophy, but i have seen areas where giraffe needs culling as well. When the numbers start getting to big for an area they can be devastating to the area .

Hope this helps? :victory:

Regards

No worries about the questions. I enjoy sharing!!!

The hunter booked a cull hunt with us, this would be the female kudu and sub adult male animals he shot! This is purely part of our sustainable hunting management plan. Every year we set out a quota for all the animals we need to be hunted!! Not all the animals are of trophy quality so we do cull hunts that would normally include species more common to the area!!

This paticular client added Black wildebeest, gemsbuck and girrafe as he wanted trophies of these animals!!

 

Oh yes you can definately eat girrafe, tastes better than Zebra!! And i know of a few lodges that shoot younger males for the restaurantes.

 

I'll safe you some?
