Professional Hunter

[mauritianhunter]

Hello everyone,

Since my youth, I am a fan of Hunting, Wildlife and Nature. My dream was always to be a Professional Hunter in Africa. I am currently doing a Degree in Cape Town (Bcom Marketing) but I absolutely don't see myself in this field later, as I always wanted to work in the field of hunting. The problem is that I am Mauritian and unfortunately there is not much opportunity in this area in Mauritius. I read that to be a Ph in South Africa, the person must be a South African's citizen. I would like to know if this is really the case or if I can possibly have a chance?
If some of you guys could also give me some advices it would be great.

Thanking you all in advance.

Kind Regards,

Cédric

Cedric, there are several threads on the subject.

The law has changed in RSA and you do have to be a citizen now.

However, there are other countries where that is not the case.

Use that search function and you'll find some options.
