Hunting In Africa-Plains Game Overview
In this episode, I discuss some of the most commonly hunted species of African plains game, especially for those on their first African safari hunt: warthog, impala, blue wildebeest, zebra, and kudu. I also talk briefly about the cartridges and ammunition that are best suited for hunting those species of plains game.
