One Night. Two Elusive Predators. What Are the Odds?
Some nights in Africa just remind you how wild and unpredictable this continent truly is.
We headed out expecting the unexpected… and the bush delivered in a big way.
In a single night we were fortunate enough to harvest both a honey badger and a civet cat — two of the most elusive and seldom-seen nocturnal predators out there. To encounter either one is special. To take both in the same evening? That’s something we won’t forget anytime soon.
The honey badger — fearless, tough, and one of Africa’s most respected little warriors.
The civet — silent, ghost-like, moving through the darkness with pure elegance.
Opportunities like this don’t come often. It takes patience, sharp eyes, good planning , and a bit of African luck.
Grateful for the experience. Grateful for the bush. And grateful for clients who trust the process and embrace the adventure.
If night hunting and rare trophies are on your bucket list, African Bovine Safaris is ready.
