Those of you that recently hunted on the Wild goose Lodge are the lucky ones because you have witnessed the largest number of privately owned population of the cape Quagga!
In short it was believed they went extinct in the cape of South Africa some time in the late 1800's but with allot of work from several people and now private land owners in south Africa they are back and we will have the cape quagga available to hunt for the first time in a century!
The Wild Goose hunting area where we are based is owned by Kridyn Safaris, we have been managing the area for 2 years and have just finished our second very successful hunting season here. as I mentioned above Kridyn is the owner of the largest privately owned herd of Quagga, they have been involved with the Quagga project for many years and have provided both land and financial aid to the project to bring back an animal that was thought to be lost forever.
I have stated many times that 'Hunters pay for conservation' and with the help of land owners dedicated to conservation and hunting we will now be able to offer hunts for what was once thought to be an extinct sub species of the Zebra. Watch this space as we will be posting soon for the first available hunts for 2025/26 seasons, the quota will be small but will be available to hunters on AH
Here below are a few links with some more information on the quagga,
