Wild&Jag; / Game&Hunt; - April 2024

この号では

We receive great articles every month, but every now and again we get that special one that tugs at the heartstrings. “How to make a dad cry…” tells how Mark van der Linde goes out of his way to make it possible for his son, Connor, who suffers from a debilitating physical condition, to realise his dream of hunting. This brave boy has the heart of a real hunter indeed – an example to all hunters out there. Laurence Jennings travelled all the way to the Stormberg mountains in the Eastern Cape where he harvested a magnificent blue eland bull with a neck the size of an oil drum – a once-in-a-lifetime trophy hunted in a very special place with very special people. Read all about it in “Eland hunting – the sleeping giants of the Stormberg mountains”. If the eland is on your hunting list, make sure to read Prof J du P Bothma’s insightful article on the species. Two other great hunting stories not to be missed are “The real Midlands Meander – a reedbuck odyssey” by Michael Vigne and adventure bowhunter Tom Miranda’s “Old-world deer”.
