Hunting Bushbuck

Bushbuck prefers thick bush. They are fairly dependent on water and sufficient shelter in their environment.

They usually feed at night, or early morning and late afternoon. Bushbuck lie down in the thick bush during the day. Very often they are solitary animals but sometimes they will be in bachelor herds.

Due to their camouflage, and remaining mostly in the thick bush, they are not always that easy to spot. When hunting them, it can be a challenge to spot them, it often occurs by accident.

When hunting Busbuck at Induna Safaris, we cannot guarantee that we will spot them, but we tend to know the areas where they seem to stay.

Bushbuck have very keen senses, and are a very challenging hunt, due to their remaining in the thicket.

The male is a very brave animal and will attack when wounded.
