Niassa Wildebeest hunting

Niassa Wildebeest Hunts

The Niassa wildebeest, also known as the Nyasa or Johnston's wildebeest, is a large, dark-grey antelope with a distinctive broad head and curved horns. They can weigh up to 275 kg and stand up to 1.4 meters tall at the shoulder. The males are larger and have longer horns than the females. The Niassa wildebeest is a grazing animal and feeds on grasses and herbs.

Behavior and Habitat

The Niassa wildebeest is found in the woodlands and savannahs of southern Tanzania, northern Mozambique, and Malawi. They are social animals and live in herds of up to 50 individuals, with a dominant male leading the group. During the breeding season, males will engage in impressive displays of dominance, often clashing their horns together in battles for mating rights.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you, Stan Masneri

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
