Safari in the Lost World - Niassa

If you truly are a student of African safari hunting, you will become more knowledgeable discerning with each passing year. The operative word is “student.”  Because change in Africa is both constant and dynamic, understanding the drivers of change and interpreting them correctly is a full-time learning process.

 

And if you’ve been at it long enough, you’ll reference present day Africa to the golden years of safari hunting. That historical reference narrows the lens down to a precious few hunting areas that remain unspoiled environmentally and full of trophy potential and priceless experiences.


 

My personal journey of discovery and learning over 50 years in Africa lands me in the Niassa Reserve of Mozambique. If you like wild, if you like authentic safari hunting, you’ll land there, too. This is the center of gravity for mature and exportable lions and leopards. It’s home for Africa’s best Roosevelt sable, a noble creature. The buffalo symbolize the persona of the Dagga Boy. And a full complement of species rounds out a mega list of options.




Hunting Niassa is like leaving the planet to hunt the Lost World. Its beauty is starkly savage. Prehistoric rivers and mountains tell a mind-blowing story about the Earth’s age. Game is curious because predators are the only thing to be feared. Outfitting exceeds professional benchmark standards. Niassa is the real thing.
