Blesbokke Catch







This morning my father-in-law hired a game park to catch blesbok in order to decrease the large amount of rams. It was something to see three Ford Trucks racing around and herding the blesbokke into a long net chute. I think 35 boks were sold. None were injured and none were killed in the process so I feel like it was a success.


It was a pretty cool thing to witness. Zander didn't want them to take any and he said to me, "They can get there own biltong (jerky)!" Cute. :)





There are a bunch more photos on Facebook if you want to see more! It takes a looooong time to post here.

Hunting Blesbok on the farm












Okay, so it isn't really hunting when you know exactly where they are all the time but my father-in-law, husband and boys went out one evening and shot three blesbok. The meat is lekker (good)!!
