North American Introduced Nilgai Hunting

Nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus) Search Our Hunting Trips for: Current SCI all time record: Score 39 1/8 Description: The short coat is yellow-brown in females, and gradually turns blue-grey in males as they mature. There is an erectile mane on the nape and back and a "hair pennant" in the middle of the underside of the neck. There are white markings in the form of cheek spots, edges of the lips, and a throat bib. Along the underside is a thin white stripe, which "balloons" at the rear. The slender legs support a stocky body, which slopes downwards towards the rear. The head is long and slender. Males have 20-25 cm / 8-10 inch long horns which are straight and tilted slightly forwards. Other Common Names: Size: Range: (Indigenous to India and Pakistan): Primarily south Texas; year around but the winter months are easier hunting and the coat is darker. Natural History: The Nilgai is mainly diurnal, with peaks in activity in the early morning and late afternoon. The sense of sight is well developed among this wary species. When chased, Nilgai can run up to 48 kmph / 29 mph. Males have been observed to establish territories during the breeding season, attempting to gather and keep small herds of females (up to 10) within their area. Males compete with each other with threatening posture displays and neck wrestling, rarely leading to both rivals kneeling and lunging at each other with their horns. Normally silent, Nilgai have been recorded making a roaring vocalization. The population density in central India is about 0.07 animals per square kilometer. Hunting Characteristics:
