| General Information |
Prohunt Zambia Ltd was founded by Richard and Barry
Bell-Cross who secured the hunting rights to the extensive
Kasempa Lunga Luswishi Game Management Area (GMA).
Between them they have put together an experienced and
respected management team to ensure a superior safari
experience for their clients. Prohunt offers not only
excellent hunting opportunities but more importantly
provides old fashioned hospitality together with an
outstanding support service customized to realize your
wildest dreams.
 Kasempa Lunga Luswishi is one of Zambia’s largest hunting
concessions and covers a staggering 6,000 sq miles
of pristine wilderness. Two great river systems – the
Kafue and Lunga adjoin the area and provide
ideal habitats for a wide variety of animal species. The
GMA consists mainly of open grassy areas called dambos
which are interspersed with woodland and thickets and is
widely considered in hunting circles to be an excellent
general bag area.
The area is famous for huge dark maned Lions and
the was taken there in 2004.
 Sought after species such as Roan, outstanding
Sable and world class Defassa Waterbuck roam
the woodland areas. In addition, Litchenstein’s
Hartebeest, Eland, Zebra, Puku,
Reedbuck, Oribi, Impala and
Warthog are abundant throughout the vast grassy plains
and dambo systems. It is not uncommon to be able to view
hundreds of animals each day.
 The rivers harbor scattered
populations of Hippo and some monster Crocodiles
and the riverside thickets provide a safe refuge for
Chobe Bushbuck, Bushpig and Kudu.
Buffalo, although not common can be found in the more
isolated expanses of the concession. Buffalo hunting here
is certainly only for the more adventurous who are willing
to hunt hard and overnight in remote spike camps.
Sitatunga hunting has just been opened in Kasempa
Lunga Luswishi and we boast a 100% success rate on this
highly elusive and sought after species. The trophy
quality too is exceptional and often over twenty Sitatunga
can be seen in an evening. Coupled with the fact that
Sitatunga is fast becoming increasingly hard to come by it
makes this GMA a prime destination for this species.
 Kafue Flats and Bangweulu Swamps are areas of striking
beauty and provide unrivalled hunting opportunities for
the Kafue and Black Lechwe respectively.
Herds of Lechwe well in excess of 1,000 frequent the
grassy plains and the total population of both species is
believed to number over 40,000. Is there a world record
out there? |

| Camps |
Hunting is conducted from two fully staffed ensuite tented camps that are aesthetically constructed alongside the two rivers to blend into the environment. There is hot and cold running water and tents all have solar lighting. The solar system can also be used to charge up video camera batteries, etc provided you bring the necessary 12 volt cigarette lighter adapter.
We have two first class chefs at camp and have never had a complaint about the food. We try to vary the diet to include freshly caught fish, game birds and of course the majority of the animals you hunt. The game meat is all well cured and lean and often hard to tell from a good piece of beef. You will be served a starter and desert with your evening meal.
Depending on the species you are hunting, it may be necessary to overnight in a remote spike camp.
This is an experience in itself. You will sleep under the stars or in a tent and although often referred to as roughing it we do take enough supplies for it to be comfortable. Toilet, shower, mattresses, good food and of course the experience. |

Travel
|
|
There are many ways to fly to Zambia and getting help from a good travel agent is advisable. Upon arrival in
Lusaka you will be met by one of Prohunt’s representatives in the arrivals hall of the airport where you will then be helped through customs with all the necessary gun permits, etc. The drive into camp is only about
4 hours on good roads. If need be we can arrange for overnight accommodation in one of several good hotels in Lusaka.
