Blue Duiker Hunting African Safaris

Blue Duiker (Cephalophus monticla) Search Our Hunting Trips for: Current all time records SCI: Score 9 2/16 Rowland Ward: Score 2 7/8 - Irumu, Zaire - 1972 Description: Females are generally larger than males in this duiker species. The colour of the coat varies with the region from slate grey to grey-brown, with a bluish sheen on the back. The underparts, inner legs, rump, and underside of the tail are whitish. There is a light eye-brow ridge which curves up to the base of the horns, as well as a glandular slit underneath the eye. The horns are strongly ridged and short, growing 2-10 cm / 0.8-4 inches long. The horns are sometimes absent in females, or hidden by the short head crest. Other Common Names: Size: Range: Central Africa with scattered populations in eastern and southeastern Africa, but primarily hunted in the Central African Republic, Cameroon, and South Africa; year round. Natural History: The Blue Duiker is mostly active at night and at dawn and dusk. Bonded pairs patrol their territory, which are 2.5-4 hectares in size, regularly marking them with scent clues from their pedal glands (situated between the hooves), facial glands, and from defecating. Both sexes chase off any intruders, but will remain tolerant of their own young until they reach 18 months of age. The mother and young contact through soft groaning calls, both freezing at the slightest alarm. Males may emit a whistle or a sneezing sound to raise the alarm. Population densities of up to78 per square kilometer have been recorded in Gabon. Hunting Characteristics:
