Wild&Jag; / Game&Hunt; - January 2026

In dit nummer

Cleve Cheney wrote a series of articles on tracking for us a few years ago. Some time ago, one of our readers asked if we could publish them again, and I thought that was a good idea, especially before the hunting season begins (p 16). Jackal is a “swear” word to many farmers, and so we all consider them pests. The woman in the office compiled a very interesting and informative article on this topic (p 26). The summer months in our country are always a time to braai, and Ankie Stroebel has a few delicious game meat recipes specially for the braai that she shares with us (p 40). It was around a fire that Willem Pretorius decided to write an article about calibres. We had such a good response to this article that he is now on the third article. Thank you to everyone who responded! Keep sending your views and questions to santie@wildlifehunt.co.za. I hope you and your loved ones had a wonderful Christmas and that you managed to get some rest and quiet time. For many, it will be back to work, school, and reality in a week or two. Are you ready for 2026 and all the new adventures it has in store for you?
