Topography

Conservation Efforts

Game Bird Conservation is essential to the management of the wild game bird population. Only totally wild populations of Game Birds are pursued. No more than 30% of a population is harvested per annum. By adding value in terms, of concession fees paid to landowners, Karoo Wingshooting create tolerance by landowners towards game birds that is sometimes perceived as pests. Additionally, excess shot birds are a protein supplement to the impoverished local communities in the shooting district.
