Hello

I am a 27 year old Male from Victoria in Australia.

A mate and I would like to get jobs with a hunting safari outfitter in Africa. We are not that fussed about what we would be doing. We are both very hard workers and love hunting/shooting/camping/outdoors etc. We have both done a lot of hunting of sambar deer, fallow deer, pigs etc. We are both from farms in Victoria. We basically want to come to Africa, work hard and be involved in the day to day activities on a safari hunting camp – and maybe the odd hunt of course!! Haha. We are not fussed about pay, really, we just want to gain life experiences and get as better understanding of africa and its animals. It has been a dream to work in Africa. We both have driver license, shooting license , Passports etc etc. We are both very competent in the safe use and care of rifles and shotguns, 4wd use, camping etc.

My wife and his girlfriend are both large animal vets and will also be looking for work. My wife has worked in Tanzania before. If anyone could shed some light as to how to go about finding a job along these lines or if you know of anything or who to contact, that would be much appreciated.

Cheers

She might be able to get an agricultural attache job with your Foreign Service and pursue African nations as posting locations. That might be a lot of bridges.

If you were an American that would be a very doable option, but our Foreign Service has something like 35,000 people in it and there are about 250-400 agricultural attaches.

You'd need to contact all the hunting nation embassies and PH schools in those countries and find out what you could do.

Odds are high the Vets would be highly desirable employees by a ton of different private companies, agro industry companies, big ranches, and even private practices in the major cities.

Haaaaaaa. I hope everything worked out. Guy has not logged on since 2009. I did like the line, “My wife and his girlfriend . . .”:-)
 
Hey it’s good this thread came back around. At this point OPs kids may be looking for work in the safari industry.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris

Hello:
I’ll take the .375 Whitworth for $1,150 if the deal falls through.
Thanks .
