I have just returned from a wonderful and unique hunting experience in Chad. Chad is 5th largest country in Africa. It houses the mighty Sahara Desert in the north with savannah in the south. It is the only country where one can hunt the elusive western greater kudu, an icon of the spiral horns, and red fronted gazelle. I've included numerous photos to share the unique scenery, friendly people, culture, and the many unique animals on quota in this seldom-hunted land. I hope you enjoy!

Thanks for all the photos. I’ve been following along on FB as well and this looks like it’s been quite an interesting adventure. What else is available to hunt there?

A unique safari indeed. Well done. Looks like a very interesting country, what were the logistics and camp like Christophe?
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling
wow Chris incredible pictures and adventures ... i was on the other side in CAR where the kudus were eating watermelons and it was a long walks to get them.

It takes 1à hours drive from Ndjamena to the camp... not the best road but very interesting to see the country. The camp is confortable with AC all night, good food, good cars. Everything was top notch.
