Circle of life.They're polygamous, mating with many partners. Dominant males mate more often than less aggressive males. The female is able to store s***m in her cloaca, fertilizing her eggs for up to four years after copulation. Courtship occurs during spring and summer.Who am I?

Giraffe hunting often stir up emotions,but the necessity to sustainably utilize all species outweights emotion. This is a very old bull and has been breeding in the herd for over 8 years now. He had very few teeth left and would've very soon started to loose condition. He must've weighed close to 2 tons alive with slaughtered weight of 870kg.All the meat is utilized and will feed many families.Thank you for your contribution to our conservation efforts Alan.

Unbelievable animals harvested with some of our outfitter clients and some of our own US clients during Aug/Sept at Mattanu Private Game Reserve.The contribution by hunters, through sustainable utilisation, to the wildlife economy and the conservation efforts in Africa is immense.Without them species,their land and conservation as we know it will be dessamated.

The SA meat hunters and our tourists are making a massive contribution to our conservation efforts at Mattanu Private Game Reserve this year and getting some great animals.Thank you!
Where client satisfaction is our business.
Safaris are meant to take the hunter back to the old days where they tracked animals for miles in search of the illusive trophy often staying in the bush for weeks on end. Without losing that African romance, we have adapted the experience to add some luxury before and after the hunt and to insure the client gets more than he paid for. With Tharo safaris you become part of the solution for Africa, which is sustainable utilization. You become part of our conservation history and through your support we can further our conservation efforts, create jobs and sustain families in previously disadvantaged and impoverished communities. We thank each and every ethical hunter for their contribution to the economy of South Africa which directly supports conservation efforts of all game farmers and reserves in Southern Africa.
