Hi all,
I am just back from a great adventure in the equatorial rain forest in Congo.
Just being there is already an experience. Trees are HUGE, you feel small...
The first feeling is: how can I get into that s..t, it is a green wall in front of you.
In fact it is not difficult, some places are impenetrable, so you go around and under the canopy if you walk slowly it is easy. But you are wet all day long while in the forest or because of the rain or because you are sweating...
The top of the top is to hunt bongo (or sitatunga or buffalo) by tracking with the Baka pygmies and the dogs.
You pick up a fresh track on the logging road.
The Baka pygmies follow the tracks (I was not able to do it !!! and I am use to do it) while the dogs are around.
It, normally does not take very long before you see the dogs running and barking after the bongo (between 15 mn and 1h30). You know the dogs bay the bongo. Then you get such a rush of adrenalin and you try to run trough the forest to get as close as you can to the orange ghost. Usually the animal stands in front of the dogs between 15 and 5 yards...
Something to experience, for sure.
With CONGO FOREST SAFRIS we are making a super deal for this year. Please have a look on ''DEALS & OFFERS'' at http://www.africahunting.com/threads/incredible-bongo-hunting-deal-congo-brazzaville.30245/.
