For 2003 total Cameroon Government quota for Bongo was 65 trophies for all authorized concessions. Our 3 new Baka's Forest Safaris concessions described in this brochure offered 32 Bongos out of 65 i.e. almost half of the total government quota. Same as for 2004. This privlege will continue over the years coming.

TSP PH Mr. Georges Kabalan Moussa, permanent resident in camp, watches the 3 areas all year round, preventing poaching, meanwhile managing the fauna. This is unique in Cameroon Rain Forest.

The first season started in 2002. There are a lot of trophies which were never hunted. Small savannahs are spread all over the area with swamps for Western Sitatunga. We have machans (tree stands) on many of them.

Really, this is the last area to be offered in the Rain Forest. All others have been over-hunted since 10 years or more. We feel lucky to be able to still guarantee super hunts to our hunters - after 12 years of experience in forest environment.
Remember that we were the first organization, 12 years ago to offer those safaris at the SCI convention. This counts!

You can bag recordable trophies - Bongo, Western Sitatunga, Forest Elephant, Dwarf Buffalo, Giant Forest Hog, Bush Pig, Yellow Back Duiker, Blue Duiker, Black Fronted Duiker, Bates Antilope, Civet Cat, Birds.

CAMEROON is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful African countries, owing to the diversity of its climate and its geographical location, ranging from the great southern equatorial forest to the vast northern desert. It is within itself a miniature reproduction of the entire African continent.

CAMEROON stretches from the shore of the Atlantic Ocean, deep into the Gulf of Guinea up to Lake Chad and represents the real junction-point between Western and Eastern Africa. Cross-road of the peoples and civilizations, CAMEROON possesses a large range of tourist attractions.

One does not, visit CAMEROON, one discovers it. The traveler is offered contact with its welcoming population and its nature still sheltered from all pollution.

CAMEROON is one of the most balanced and economically stable countries of Africa. Its wealth comes from a culture of large diversity of more than 200 tribes. It has a surface area of 295,165 square miles and a population of ten million people.

CAMEROON possesses six national parks which are looked upon as being amongst the most beautiful in the world owing to the abundance of the diverse animal species living there.

The Hunting Zone
The hunting zone is located in South Eastern CAMEROON, over thousands of acres extending to the Congo and car borders. Forest roads allow to penetrate deeply our territory and track the famous BONGO, Forest Elephant, Dwarf Buffalo, Western Sitatunga, Yellow Back Duiker, Peters Duikers, Giant Forest Hog and Bush Pig.

The Hunt
You will be guided by a professional white hunter and assisted by professional pygmy trackers.

Among the protected species, you will see a lot of gorillas, chimpanzees and when lucky, beautiful leopards.

You will hunt in a typical hot and humid equatorial forest and cross from time to time into small open savannahs. it is often here that the hunter has the unobstructed view for a perfect shot.

Good physical condition is required when hunting in the rain forest.

Also important, is to be familiar with your rifle as immediate quick shots are necessary to bag running trophy. Let your professional hunter advise you when you spot big game.

The longer treks are made overland by jeep but, the hunt itself takes place exclusively on foot. Tracking begins after discovering fresh tracks.

The hunt is directed by well qualified French professional hunters/guides aided by experienced Cameroon trackers and carriers. The trackers and carriers are capable of determining the sex and size of the game being stalked by the impressions of the track. Their efficiency and stealthiness will allow you to bag the most wonderful trophees.

The guides insure that your hunt is a sporting one. The hunts are always challenging, but your efforts will be rewarded by the most unforgettable memories of your life.

Official research have been made to spot animal habits in each area. This helps to lead the safari in accordance to the Hunter's wishes and save time. - 410,000 ACRES - AREA N: 37 - 130,000 ACRES Located east of Cameroon at Lokomo which is the river name where the hunting camp is built with super accommodations.
