Darted Rhino Safaris

Price $ 6000
Accompanied by an experienced professional hunter, and a wildlife veterinarian the client enjoys a safari tracking a rhino on foot. Doing this a client enjoys all the thrills of a real hunt and more, stalking the rhino much closer than any rifle hunter normally would feel comfortable with, to the point where he can get a clear shot. The dart is shot using a 32-guage rifle, immobilising the animal within minutes.
Once down the rhino undergoes certain procedures such as photographs, measuring and micro-chipping. The wildlife veterinarian monitors the rhino while all these procedures are taking place. After the rhino is given the antidote, and needless to say, the hunting party are well out of the way, when the animal gets to its feet and off it goes.
All things considered, darting safaris have created a win-win situation for all, while the rhino owner and hunter also derive income.
The client is able to complete his "Big Five" at a more affordable rate as SCI recognises this form of hunting for the SCI record book. In addition the rhino owner benefits as his animal is micro-chipped, thereby ensuring effective monitoring and anti-poaching. Darting a rhino is now an affordable hunt by comparison to the traditional hunt costing ($20 000 to $30 000)
This is a once in a lifetime hunt.
