LAST FRONTIER BANTENG
Banteng on the Cobourg Peninsula
Northern Territory, Australia
Banteng, water buffalo & wild pigs were all introduced on Cobourg in the 1800’s. Animal populations have drastically multiplied and spread, causing harm to the native flora & fauna.
These Banteng & Water Buffalo Hunting Safaris are wild, fair chase & free range.
Sustainability, ethics & respect will be shown and adhered to at all times. Our partners love what they do, and make sure this resource and experience will be enjoyed by generations to come.
THE HUNTING
When Banteng hunting in Australia you are looking for those large, old mature bulls. Horns on a bull banteng will vary from 18-25 inches in length per side, and bases 10-15 inches. Cows also have horns but much smaller in length and mass.
The National Park in which these safaris care conducted is over 1.1million acres, so you will utilize 4x4’s to cover ground efficiently. However the plan is to stop, park and carry out the hunt on foot as we approach creeks, springs and feeding grounds.
It is not uncommon to see banteng when driving out of camp which is located right on the cliffs overlooking the turquoise water. Recommended caliber for banteng hunting in Australia is the 375 or above, with shooting distances typically under 100 yards. This is one of the pure and genuine hunts that you will remember for a lifetime.
Banteng hunting in Australia is as much about the hunt as it is about the trophy, and it is a great combination with water buffalo.
COMBINATION HUNTS
You can also combine your banteng hunt with multiple other species, including water buffalo and more.
