Hunting African Civet in South Africa - Hunter's Notes

Hunting the nocturnal African Civet cat definitely offers you one of the most exciting hunts while you are night hunting in Africa. The Civet is hunted by spot and stalk tactics along with safari style spotlighting. They are not much seen during the day as they spend most of their days sleeping in dense vegetation then wake up at sunset to start hunting for prey.

It has short, dense fur that is a greyish colour, with black spots arranged in rows along their bodies. Their legs and about 2/3 of their tail is black, with about a third of the base of their tail having striped markings. Their face is solid grey except for a white muzzle and black markings around the eyes that lead down the face.

Dan Christensen – Buffalo City, WI 608-769-2024

It’s not just the doing of a thing, but how one does a thing that at the dusk of memory takes one back to the sharp moment of action and then a whiskey and a fire shared with a trusted PH ... that is the true and the beautiful essence of “Safari,” at least for me.

Bill Flynt – Platte City, MO 816-304-1294

Somerby is a wonderful professional organization to work with, hunt with and just know. Booking your first overseas hunt is a huge decision but you can rest assured that Somerby has all the angles covered before during and after the hunt.
