HUNTING IN ETHIOPIA WITH ROCKY VALLEY SAFARI (RVS)
Brief
Ethiopia is well known to hunt- lovers because it's very rich in endemic species like (Mountain Nyala, Southem Greater Kudu, Menelik's Bushbuck etc.).
RVS and LHPS , hunting expedition specialists, traditionally organize expeditions and hunts in full respect of Ethiopia's rules and laws. RVS can count on at least 30 species and a number of animals which is pre-established by Government in view of the protection of species threatened with extinction.
PROCEDURE FOR HUNTING IN ETHIOPIA WITH RVS
- RVS and LHPS established the following rules:
- hunting expeditions shall be booked at least six months before the date of beginning of the hunt
- and an advance paid of 40% of the safari price and of the fees on the animals intended for hunting.
- all the requested documents like passport , hunting licence, rifle details, shall be prepared and delivered to the organizer.
RVS will immediately take the necessary steps to obtain the hunting pass and all related documents and will immediately inform the customer.

HUNT BEGINNING

All hunters may remain in the hunting area only for as long as necessary, as pre-agreed, to hunt a given species .
As per an internationally accepted hunting rule, the hunter shall pay for all the hunting days planned, irrespective of the amount of days necessary to get the prey or achieve hunting success . RSV or RHPS will arrange all included transfers, guides, beaters, provisioning , accommodation in camping tents or other available structures.
END OF THE HUNT
At the end of the agreed hunting period, the guest will be transferred to the hotel, irrespective of the success obtained . As guarantor, RVS staff shall accompany the hunter to trusted taxidermists in order for the client to arrange all the details for successful trophy –shipping to its final destination. Any shipping detail must be decided before leaving the country.
ATTENTION: Same countries forbid the import of stuffed trophies in order to counter the unauthorized hunting of protected species.
Before departure, the customer needs to ascertain the authorization to import the species intended for hunting.
