Named after Sir Fredrik Courtney Selous, famous big-game hunter at the beginning of the 20th century and precursor in terms of fauna preservation, the Selous Game reserve is the biggest reserve for African wildlife. Entirely preserved from human presence, the Selous is a true sanctuary for the wild fauna which evolutes and prospers in a virgin nature. Paradise for the naturalists and lovers of the bush, the Selous is also a dream for African big game hunters, eager for great spaces and authentic pursuits.
Being articulated around several big rivers, the areas include a large variety of biotopes: rivers bordered by dense forests, sharp mountains circulating around woody valleys, huge grassy plains and vast marshes. Difficult to access and relatively low-hunted in the past, those hunting areas harbors real treasures, in terms of landscapes as well as diversity of the species and quality of the trophies. The great density of buffalos and plain games generates the presence of numerous predators such as lions and leopards. The rivers and their surroundings concentrate high density of hippos and elephants. Those inestimable treasures offer the prospect of exceptional hunting, geared to this wild paradise.
