This outfitter has two types of African hunts; and you choose to hunt either Forest or Savannah—or both! . Their first Savannah camp, is located between two National Parks: "Bouba Njida" and " La Benoue". Species here include the unique North Cameroon Derby Eland or the amazing Giant Topi. You may see a herd of Elephants, Western Roans, Northwestern Buffalos, Hippos and even Lions. No-one has been more successful on Lord Derby eland! |

Because of all these various savannah camps they operate with nearly double the number of licenses over any other company. If you are interested, we suggest that any Savannah Safari take place during the dry season, meaning, from Christmas to the end of May. Now lets look at their Forest hunts for bongo etc. |

FOREST HUNTS This outfitter in 2000 was able to acquire from the Cameroon Government, the virgin forest area called "The Boumba", noted for its large number of Bongo and for it’s high quality trophies, including the unique Forest Elephant. Importatntly, from our view as their US agent, "The Boumba" forest area accounts for 40%. of the total amount of licenses granted by the Cameroon Government to hunt dwarf buffalo and Forest Sitatunga! Because this area has been such an isolated and remote area, often requiring a pirogue to go through, there is an abundant diversity of animals. Therefore, you can easily find all kinds of Duikers, Bates Pygmy Antelope, Bush Pig, and with a little bit of chance, even the Giant Forest Hog. In 2002 he acquired another forest area called "Lognia", located on the border of Cameroon with the Congo and R.C.A. and protected by the Lobeke National Park. This is a classic bongo hunting area consisting of forest crossed by old travel routes. Then to our delight, they added a third forest area called DJA, near DJA National Park, an area almost unseen and unhunted. After exploring one part of the new area they pronounced it as excellent for sitatunga. Hunting there is really hard, and only for the truly adventurous. Then in 2005 they acquired a fourth forest area called "Ndama", still being explored. They are virtually 100% successful on a 14 day hunt for Bongo!! |

TRIP DETAILS: HUNT #31 CAMEROON
|
Hunt in equatorial Africa, deep in the rain forests of Cameroon, often not far from the border of the Congo. Here you are visitor, a “Tall”, in the land of the Bake pygmies (pronounced Baa-kaa), the forest-dwelling natives that have lived much as they live now for the past 10,000 years!!!!!! Hunt a world totally different from where you may have hunted plains game, among arid plains and acacia trees. This is gorilla country, pygmy country; land of odd species and life forms much older than yourself! You will sweat, work hard and feel incredibly rewarded by your efforts and your trophy. Call us at 1-307-637-5495 to book. |

TO GET TO THE SAVANNAH CAMPS: |

ON A COMBINED SAFARI (FOREST AND SAVANNAH): Combined safari of forest and savannah, you could either:
- A host person will always assist clients on their arrivals/departures to any of the Cameroon airports (Douala, Yaounde, Garoua, Ngaoundere, Bertoua, Moloundou or Kika)
- If needed, domestics and charters flights can be reserved for you through the Safari company, but you should give us thirty days advance notice. The Safari company is not responsible for any flight cancellation or charter fare change.
- Charter flight cost could be shared with other hunters in order to reduce the cost. The Safari Company will try to make your arrival/departure date coincide with other peoples dates, so you could take the charter together and share the cost. But no promises on that. Some people like the overland route as they really get to see the country, plus it is much more economical.
