Dama Gazelle Hunting

Dama Gazelle (Gazella dama) Search Our Hunting Trips for: Current SCI all time record: Score 43 5/8 - Texas, Hondo - 11/89 Description: The coloration of the coat is quite variable, and is used to distinguish subspecies. The coat is bright white, with reddish brown or chestnut on the neck. However, as one travels from east to west through this species' range, the extent of coloration increases dramatically, with the western-most subspecies being almost completely red except for the undersides and rump. All races have a small white patch on the throat. The face has relatively few markings, being completely white in eastern subspecies, but with red cheek patches and thin black stripes running from the eyes to the corners of the mouth in the western subspecies - the Mhorr gazelle. The body is supported by thin legs, and the neck is long and slender. The horns are found in both sexes, though are generally larger and thicker in males. They are "S" shaped, slanting backwards, then curling upwards, growing 20-43 cm / 8-17 inches long. Other Common Names: Size: Range: (Indigenous to the western and southern edges of the Sahara Desert, but virtually eradicated by wars and poaching): Texas; lightly hunted year around until numbers increase. Natural History: A diurnal species, this gazelle requires more water than others adapted to its dry habitat, although it can survive long periods of draught. Like most desert species, the dama gazelle is highly nomadic, ranging widely in order to obtain sufficient nutrition. In addition, these gazelles undertake large seasonal migrations, moving north into the Sahara desert during the rainy season, and retreating south into the Sahel during the dry season. To maximize the amount of food available, these gazelles may stand on their hind legs in a manner reminiscent of the gerenuk in order to reach leaves above the normal browsing height. Adult males are believed to be territorial during the breeding season. Hunting Characteristics:
