Sharpe's Grysbok Hunts

Sharpe's Grysbok, also known as Raphicerus sharpei, is a small antelope species found in Southern Africa.

Physical Characteristics

Sharpe's Grysbok is a small antelope species that stands at approximately 45-50 cm at the shoulder and weighs between 5-10 kg. They have reddish-brown fur with white underparts and a distinctive black stripe that runs from their nose to the base of their horns. Their horns are short and straight, measuring up to 8 cm in length.

Habitat

Sharpe's Grysbok is primarily found in woodland areas and savannas of Southern Africa, including South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, and Mozambique. They prefer areas with dense vegetation and are particularly adapted to living in rocky outcrops and boulder-strewn hillsides.

Diet

The Sharpe's Grysbok is primarily herbivorous, feeding on leaves, shoots, and fruits. They have a specialized digestive system that allows them to extract as much nutrition as possible from the plants they consume.

Behavior

Sharpe's Grysbok is a solitary species, and they are active primarily at dawn and dusk. They are known for their excellent sense of hearing and sense of smell, which helps them avoid predators. They are also incredibly agile and can jump over obstacles up to 1.5 meters high.

Conservation Status

They are listed as a species of least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). However, their population is declining in some areas due to habitat loss and fragmentation, poaching, and hunting. As such, it is important to monitor their population and conserve their habitat to ensure their survival.

What an amazing experience!

The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
