WILD BOAR DRIVEN HUNT SAFARI

The Wild boar prefers area with think vegetation. They are found in reed beds as well as scrub and forest areas and are often found living

in the vicinity of larger cities of Pakistan. They are particularily fond of the areas around sugar plantations of the Punjab and are now

consider a pest. Numbers in Sindh have declined, but it is not endangered and is still found in good numbers. They are regularly seen on

the streets of Islamabad, despite government efforts to control their population. Our minimum bag limit is 05 (five) boars per person per

hunt safari, however, since boars are reckoned as pests in Pakistan & their population is plentiful, there is no maximum limit set by our

Government So our guests may hunt as many boars as they want and they are usually rewarded with a quantity which is far beyond their

expected bag limit. As regards their quality, all boars are shot under exciting circumstances and often includes a high percentage of old

tuskers. You’ll be accompanied by our most experienced team of hunting guides, beaters and trained dogs, who are very well familiar with

our chosen hunting grounds and always ensure that our hunters are positioned most appropriately to accomplish their guaranteed hunts.

At times short walks to the individual shooting position have to be undertaken, however, in most cases the hunters are driven by cars or

jeeps quite closer to their assigned shooting positions. This permits even the older hunters to participate easily.
