Klipspringer hunting in Namibia
Klipspringer antelope hunting in Namibia
A mature trophy is considered to be a male klipspringer “past its prime”.
Minimum caliber:
.243 (or equivalent in mm) / 1350 joules
Did you know?
To regulate their body temperature, the hairs from the fur are hollow. They also walk on the toes of their hooves. Hunting is very exciting and challenging, as the small antelopes are extremely alert and often stay undetected.
Indigenous to Namibia
Historical habitat ranget in Hilly, rocky & mountainous areas of southern, central north-western Namibia
Only the males have well-developed horns
Males are territorial and are built with a robust body
Females are usually slightly larger than males
Secondary horn growth (bulge) on the first few inches of the horn is a good indication of a particularly old animal. The fluted part of the horn is thus pushed upwards and is in the visible area.
Worn out at the tips of the horn
