Dry land Hippo hunting can be VERY exhilarating!! I was fortunate enough to get one in Namibia at the Kwondo river last September coming out of thick bush heading towards water. A three thousand pound freight train steaming through the bush to “points beyond” at a full trot? run? can get quite hairy. Not knowing which route the hippo would take, one of the trackers thought it best to be high up in a tree before we flushed him. It took several Woodleigh Hydros to convince the hippo to expire before he made it across the open ground to water.

I have thoroughly convinced myself that dry land hunting of hippo is the way to go. Any good shot can pop them in the head while they are lounging in the water. For my particular taste, I would prefer the dry land method every time!! It adds a good bit of excitement to a hunt if hippo is on license.
