CHITAL STAG IN NORTH QUEENSLAND

Our Guides / Outfitters are offering hunting for the strikingly beautiful Chital Stag on 50 sq miles of open savannah country in far North Queensland. Pigs and dingoes may also be taken at no extra cost to the hunter.
The hunting area is a working cattle ranch which has never been open to hunting until 2005, so it is well stocked with mature Chital Stags and plenty of big tusky Wild Boars.

Hunting.

Hunting is mainly on foot, although a vehicle or quadbike is used to cover the vast distances on this ranch. Spot and stalk is the main method used or sometimes a hide or blind is another successful method.

Accommodation.

You will accommodated in a comfortable cabin with hot and cold water, mosquito proof sleeping quarters, fridge/freezer and 240v generator power. All meals and beverages will be supplied by your guide.
