The Pearl of Africa - Hunting Uganda with Uganda Wildlife Safaris

Uganda, known as The Pearl of Africa offers a great variety of species to hunt, including Sitatunga, Ugandan Kob, Nile Buffalo, Nile Bushbuck and Jacksons Hartebeest to name a few. Hunting in Uganda is a very pleasant experience with friendly people, many of whom speak english. This is a highlight video reel about hunting in Uganda to showcase what Uganda and hunting with Uganda Wildlife Safaris has to offer.

It was fascinating to see how busy the rural towns were and everywhere we went it seemed like the villages were doing well and conducting some form of business/bartering. Uganda Wildlife Safaris run a great operation and everything was very well planned and all the hunting areas and camps are great. I would say above average compared to your regular wilderness type hunting experience. Traveling between the hunting areas allows you to cover a vast portion of the country. Crossing the great Nile River on a fairy late afternoon followed by a drive through the Murchison Falls National park wasn't so bad either!

Hunting sitatunga as well as hunting nile buffalo would be the primary two species for any big game hunter. The combination of hunting in the swamps and then moving camps to this picturesque open, green savanna type area for a totally different hunting experience all together makes Uganda a very versatile hunting destination. With many other game species to be added to the list whilst after the primary sitatunga, nile buffalo and nile bushbuck, a full bag is veritably a must for any serious hunter and collector. You can even hunt Gunthers Dik-dik! Some more information from Christian and his team from Uganda Wildlife Hunting Safaris:

Our core business is conservation through utilization

At UWS we are unashamedly ethical in our hunting operations as well as all other projects we are engaged in. We manage and operate exclusive wildlife areas outside national parks in cooperation with the district local governments as well as Uganda Wildlife Authority and private landowners to create employment and to stop uncontrolled and indiscriminate destruction of wildlife and their natural environment. Our success can be directly attributed to the partnerships we have formed with local communities in our areas of operation. We believe that through sharing not only our profits but our resources and knowledge with local communities, we are changing perceptions about wildlife and thus ensuring future generations will not only enjoy their natural treasures but will also have a means to generate a sustainable income from them.

Exploring the Pearl of Africa

The Republic of Uganda, referred to by Winston Churchill as the Pearl of Africa, is located in Eastern and Central Africa, and lies almost completely within the Nile basin. It is bordered in the east by Kenya, in the North by South Sudan, by the Democratic Republic of Congo in the West, Rwanda in the Southwest and Tanzania in the South.

The southern part of the country includes a substantial portion of Lake Victoria as well as a number of other lakes including Lake Kyoga, Lake Albert, Lake Edward, and the smaller Lake George.

Most of the important cities are located in the south near Lake Victoria, including the capital, Kampala, and the “airport city” of Entebbe.

Uganda is endowed with an extraordinary variety of specialty game, promises an unforgettable and highly satisfying hunting experience. Specialty game animals are the primary attraction for hunters to Uganda, and include a variety of endemic species, such as Uganda Kob and Jackson’s Hartebeest.

All though not endemic to Uganda, this is the prime location to collect exceptional East African Sitatunga and Nile Buffalo.
