This warthog cull hunt will take place in South Africa’s Northern Cape Province on a 25,000-acre concession that has an excess of warthogs..  This renowned South African outfitter has put together an amazing discounted package hunt for those of you who like to whack and stack some warthogs. They specialize in offering some of these highly sought-after multiple warthog hunts and they have good populations of warthogs on the concessions that they hunt.

The Warthog Cull Hunt Hunting Area

The hunting location for this warthog culling safari will take place in South Africa's Northern Cape 40 minutes west of Kimberly.  The 25,000-acre hunting concession is a 5-hour drive from Johannesburg, so flying to Kimberly is the best way to get there. A 4-star hotel with a good restaurant on the Vaal River bank will be your headquarters for this cull hunt.  This large concession is well known for the quality hunting it produces and has a high population of warthogs.

This hunt will take place west of Kimberly on some bushveld areas near some irrigated agricultural farms where warthogs are considered to be pests due to the destruction of crops in the area. The area consists of bushveld, open plains, and Mountains. The Northern Cape is famous for the amount and diversity of game that is found in the area and this area has a lot of warthogs.  Warthog cull hunts are one of the primary methods that are used to keep the local pig populations in check.

During the months from March - November it is dry and the leaves have fallen, which makes it easier to spot the animals. This hunt will take place on waterholes where the warthogs come multiple times to drink. You will see a lot of warthogs and will have multiple opportunities to shoot each day. 

You can expect temperatures from 40's early mornings and evenings, but it warms up during the day to mid-70's to mid 80's..  It is best to dress in layers.

The Warthog Cull Hunt Lodge

You will be staying at a 4-star hotel that features  comfortable beds and in-suite bathroom facilities.  The lodge is strategically located close to the farms that you will hunt on.  The food, wine, and service at this lodge are a great example of what makes South African hospitality famous.  Meals are served three times daily and include some local specialties.. The food is excellent and they have a varied menu.

This lodge features excellent food and accommodations. This lodge features daily laundry service, an attentive camp staff, first-class sleeping accommodations, and everything that is required to make it easy to recuperate from a hard night in the bush. There is a swimming pool and a large deck for relaxing while viewing the river.

The lodge features permanent electrical power.  Cell phone service and internet are available at the hotel..

Warthog Cull Hunting Methods

This warthog hunt is mostly done by sitting over waterholes, where you will see many warthogs each day. 

Your day will start with an early breakfast in camp at 6:30 am.  You will then drive out to the field you will hunt and get set up for the day's shoot.

It is not only warthogs that come to the waterholes, there are kudu, blesbuck, hartebeest, barbary sheep, waterbuck, mountain reedbuck, and others that you will see coming in to feed also.. Should you see a trophy of one of these species while you are hunting warthogs, you can harvest that animal for the regular price list trophy fee.

It gets dark between 5 pm and 6 pm during the winter months, so you will be back in the hotel at 6:30 pm.  The outfitter may arrange for a fire to be built for your cocktails and relaxation before dinner is served.

This hunt is available from March through November.  There are also some exceptional plains game trophies on this concession. This area of the Northern Cape is known for having lots of kudu, so you might want to do a little kudu hunting as well.  Plains game prices may be viewed via the link below:

GETTING THERE

Most hunters will overnight in Johannesburg at the African Sky Guest House and then catch a flight to Kimberly where the outfitter will be waiting for you to transport you to the hotel that will serve as your base. After you arrive you can settle in and sight in your rifles in preparation for the first day's hunt.

CLOTHING

This hunt will occur primarily in the daytime.  Although it will be cool in the early mornings, most days it will warm up rapidly.  A light jacket is recommended for those cooler early mornings.

EQUIPMENT

A good scope that is clear and has a wide field of vision is important when cull hunting.  Often these animals will freeze for a few seconds. The ability to quickly find them in your scope is an important aspect of this hunt.  A good pair of binoculars will also aid you in judging your trophies.  Quality optics are a big aid for this type ofhunt.

TAXIDERMY

If you decide to have any trophies prepared for export or mounted by a taxidermist, the outfitter uses Splitting Image Taxidermy, which is simply the best taxidermist in South Africa.
