I would say that Mozambique is one of the most stable and friendly countries to visit in southern Africa. Your chances of getting in the way of a "sniper" or any other "badguy" is basically zero. I even felt safer in most of Mozambique than I do in parts of downtown Oslo, Norway!

Mines are found not only in the south as mentioned, but also in the north. However, these are mainly near bridges and other installations that you wouldn't encounter while visiting Mozambique for hunting, so wouldn't be a problem.

I haven't hunted in Mozambique, but have been thru most of the country from the very north and all the way south a couple of years ago. You'll find people in Mozambique to be at least, if not more, friendly and helpful then they are in nabouring countries.

Infrastructure is a bit lacking compaired to nabouring countries, but I don't think this is a problem for a visiting hunter, since everything will be set up for you by the PH/Outfitter.

One thing I would suggest is to spend some extra days on the coast if you like diving, and want to swim with whalesharks and other interesting marine wildlife.

FWIW, Mozambique is actually one of the few african countries I considered settling down in for a while, and I sometime regret not accepting a couple of job offers we got there.

To boil it down, I wouldn't hesitate to hunt there, as long as you do your homework when it comes to who you will be hunting with.

Ps. Malawi hasn't had hunting for years, and is virtually devoid of wild game except in the few small national parks. It's a nice enough country, but I found it a bit too civilized, and thus kind of boring.
