Dalton & York safaris pride themselves not just being hard working and consistent on safari but focus a lot on the aspect of conservation and community development especially in the omay.

Dalton been in the area from 2006 and York being there from 2015 it is more than just a hunting area to them but a home . The community knows them by name and they know most of the community by name it is a close bond .

In the 3 years we have been involved as operators in the omay we have sunk over 10 boreholes, help erect 4 schools , purchased an ambulance for the local clinic , donated numerous amounts of school stationery and in 3 years delivered over 100 tons of meat to the communities.

We are in a collaboration with African conservancies who we share the anti poaching duties with . Currently employ over 60 game scouts who have been trained by national parks and the police force . We also work in close collaboration with African parks who have been our legal support and assisted man power for the last 3 years .

2024 was not an easy year for the local communities having been in a drought the subsistence crops were desecrated to nothing . Hunger leads to poaching as any of us would do if put in the situation. Unfortunately we cannot let that happen and we managed to restrict it hugely. We are not just trying to regulate animal poaching but also the flora side too, the production of charcoal was getting out of control but have managed to limit this immensely.The men of the ground have truly worked tirelessly and we appreciate them for their work.

In the last 3 years we have had to attend multiple crocodile victims loosing limbs by trying to wade through water with illegal nets . Even though they are not doing the right thing we are always there to assist on Friday we had our first victim of the year loosing his left foot, this is tragic .

I have attached numerous photos of some of our anti poaching team members , poachers caught, illegal charcoal deposits ,boreholes erected with tanks and some of the donations made to various schools.

To end non of this would be possible with out the support of you the hunters and associations that support us and we thank you for all you do together we can make a difference

Fantastic to see all that you do with community, conservation and anti-poaching. Thanks for the update on this vitally important work!

I got to see this first hand in the Omay, D&Y employees hauling meat great distances across the concession and documenting the distributions.

Good operators doing good work day in and day out.
 
Love see all the hard work and giving back to communities by the outfitters in Africa! It is very encouraging. Thank you for the work you are doing
 
I remember on my lion hunt there in 2026 just how many are employed in antipoaching efforts. I never knew how many people were in that camp until I shot my lion and we came back to a lion party! Because the teams are out working all hours of the day and night you don't see them all unless........
The Omay has seen a dramatic increase in game numbers over the years due to the work put in by D&Y and their staff. I have seen 40 Waterbuck bulls in one herd and 11 Kudu bulls in one herd! Not to mention better buffalo year by year and everything else.
Our San Angelo Chapter of SCI has now funded some of these efforts and we are proud to partner with such a fine group of conservationists.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
