HUNTING

Sénégal offers many organized opportunities with licensed guides. Sportsmen hunters enjoy pursuing Africa's most exotic game including: warthogs, buffalos, lions, antelopes, various small game animals and game birds on designated preserves during the hunting season, from December through April.

Accomodations include hunting campsites, hotels and lodges. Well trained guides will handle all arrangements and formalities. An official hunting permit is necessary. To obtain it, the hunter must provide a copy of a Canadian or American hunting license for the past two years. The outfitter will then provide the hunter with a temporary hunting permit, an authorization to carry arms, and civil liability insurance.
