CAMEL HUNTING AND SHOOTING IN AUSTRALIA
Australia offers some of the most diverse and exciting hunting opportunities in the world. From the lush forests of Queensland to the vast outback, hunting enthusiasts can find a variety of game to pursue. Hunting Australia is not just a sport; it's a way of life, deeply embedded in the culture. For the Australian hunter, every expedition is a chance to connect with the land and its wildlife.
One of the more unique aspects of Australian hunting is the pursuit of camels. Camel hunting has become increasingly popular, especially in the outback regions. These majestic animals, often considered pests due to their large numbers, can be found roaming the wild landscapes of Western Australia and Queensland.
Shooting camels requires skill and precision. Whether it's shooting camels in the open plains or up the side of a mountain, the hunt demands respect and careful planning. The meat from these hunts, known as camel meat, is prized for its unique flavor and nutritional benefits. For many, harvesting camels is not just about population control but also about sustainable use of this resource. The camel harvest is a vital part of maintaining ecological balance, and the meat provides a valuable food source.
In regions like Western Australia, camel shooting is often conducted to manage the feral populations that can cause significant environmental damage. The sound of a camel's distinctive noise, coupled with the thrill of the hunt, makes for an unforgettable experience. Whether you're shooting camel in WA or participating in camel shooting in Queensland, each hunt is a testament to the hunter's skill and dedication.
The outback offers unparalleled opportunities for camel shooting. Feral camel shooting in these remote areas helps protect native vegetation and water sources from overgrazing. Outback camel shooting is not only a practical necessity but also an exhilarating adventure. From camel hunting outback adventures to capturing the perfect camel trophy, the hunt is an integral part of the Australian hunting tradition.

Good onya mates
How do you eat camel meat while eating meat?
What an adventure that was!!
Thanks for having me out with you, mate. Great trip, great company, and great memories!
Any time brother. The invitation is always there for you. Next episode is going to be pretty special too mate, hehe.
Very beautiful in what country this is. In Saudi Arabia, we eat camel meat every day, and the cooking method is very different.
This is in Australia. We have one of the largest wild populations of camel in the world :) how do you cook it???
This is in Australia
Australian eating culture especially the diversity of protein and cooking methods is extremely hard to change.. or the lacking of marketing skills.. I don't know..
yet hmmmm.. capitalistic economic system likes to feed us what they want us to eat I think..
I guess diversity of protein and nutrition never crossed their mind but just profits 📈 🤷.
They usually braise. Boil. Grill camel meat in Saudi Arabia @@Thehuntsmanshow
@@Thehuntsmanshow camal exports other countries low price .
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has watched this video and offered their encouragement and feedback. It's been great to see the response form the community and to see new people watching the show for the first time. If you have any questions, comments, feedback or just want to say hi feel free to leave a comment below. I try my best to respond to everyone who comments. - Chris
You can hunt camel?..i had no idea.exspecaly in austraila.!..how's the meat taste?..also,what are the laws like when it comes to guns there..in the states we are told everyone turned there guns in to the goverment..how much truth is there with that?.
Scott, Brad and Lynda made filming this episode and doing some of the editing there an absolute pleasure. Their Hospitality and Company is so good, especially the food... I always went for seconds. Had many many good laughs with everyone and KC too.
You're right Jecerey, they are beautiful people and fantastic hopes. I feel like a son returning home when ever I visit them.
Absolutely. Feels like a second home at this point!
Great hunting with you, Jecerey - We'll see you next time
And you KC!
It's hunting if you have to look for it ❤
Haha, true
Stunning work. I have eaten camels before in burger form and really liked it .
Camel burgers are BRILLENT! I'm making a bunch of them from the camel meat I've got left over.
Great hunt on the Camels mate but considering the amount of feed around they looked pretty skinny.
Your not wrong mate. One of them looked down right sickly. In fact I think Brad was going to find that camel again and put it down. The rest of the herd looked good which is encouraging.
Awesome stuff guys, what a great opportunity to try new types of healthy meat
Thank you for the positive feedback. You're spot on regarding the meat. I'd never had camel before and really enjoyed both harvesting and eating it. Amazing meat.
great video, looks like a lot of happy hunters at the club meetup.
There were Michael! Everyone had a great time. Thank you for your kind words about the video too.
Director and camera man deserve an Oscar ❤
Thank you!
Man that meat looks good!
Man, it's been unreal to eat. Plenty of burgers and sausages!
Very nice initial tribute to Sergio Leone!
😂 it was a bit of fun
Nice boys!!!
Thanks mate!
Great video and great hunt, good touch on horrocks and his camel harry, he didn’t actually make it back to Adelaide, but yo his hut at penwortham in the Clare valley. His house still stands to this day. My in-laws live 100 meters from his house and close the the church he built, I often used to shoot rabbits and hares in his back yard and the old church grounds near his grave.
Your spot on. I saw this in the research and had it in my notes but got confused in my delivery. Horrocks and Harry didn't go back to Adelaide, they went to Horrock's house in Clare valley. I love it that you have a personal connection to the story, that's unreal. Shooting rabbits over his grave, haha. That's great. Thank you for sharing, I love it.
Good clip m8
Thank you Stu. Means a lot coming from you mate :)
Absolutely stunning hunt, as a hunter myself you shot placement is key.
Couldn't agree more ;)
You really had a big heart
Ha! Well, the camel did.
I am sure you had a great time, love ya fellas mate
Thanks David. We had a blast. It was an epic trip.
@@Thehuntsmanshow Cheers Cobbers!
Nice
Thanks mate 😊
👌
Thank you :)
Just subscribed...luvin your content your like the Aussie version of Steve Rinella ...
Thank you Richard, that's very kind of you Steve done some amazing work. To be compared to him is very kind. Are you an American hunter yourself?
Awesome video man, never expected to see camels in bush like that. Interestingly, camels are actually quite good for the outback if kept at lower numbers because they target weed species. The big issue is they damage farm infrastructure for cattle and can bully other animals which is why they're considered a pest. What calibre did you use for this hunt mate?
You're spot on Patrick on all of those points. A healthy number of camels in the right locations is a really good thing for Australia. Thank you for sharing this insight :)
To answer your other question I was using a Tikka T3X cambered in 30.06.
@@Thehuntsmanshow Oh nice, when I was working in Africa I used to use a 375 H&H for taking larger game like this to bring it down faster but then you have to consider how much meat is wasted too
Yup, a BIG gun makes a BIG whole haha
😊
😁
Unfortunately am far in Uganda, otherwise i would have joined.
Are there any good clubs in Uganda?
The Australian defence force used to export camels to the Middle East
Really??? That's cool. I'm guessing as transportation, and not feeding the troops? Haha
@@Thehuntsmanshow they used to trade them to locals for a whole variety of reasons. For example a crashed drone that would be found by a local would be traded for a few camels…
Haha, thats cool
Islam is animal ko respectful treka sa katta blk hr animal ko go halal ha alhmdollla phr b eide kurban pa atraz karta han dosre mazab halanka hm piar ar allah ka nam sa kstta han
In my culture we are working hard to help people understand the value of eating wild meat. To both respect, enjoy and eat wild animals. To live in balance with them. You could even go as far as saying there is something sacred about this relationship when it's balanced. Much like Islam.
What a great video and definitely something different. A question about camels - can you shoot/hunt camels on public land (in the wild) or only on private land? How does this vary with the regulations between different states. I'm in VIC, but I know most other states are usually more restricted with what and where/when you can hunt. Thanks.
First up, thank you for the encouragement about the episode. I appreciate it. Secondly, great question. Unfortunately the bulk of the camels in Australia are in Western Australia, the Northern Territory, northern parts of South Australia, and outback Queensland. All area's that don't have public land hunting. If they did we wouldn't have a camel problem, I guarantee you that. So the only way to shoot one is to help out a property owner with some population management or pay for a guided hunt. Great question.
@Thehuntsmanshow I also recommend getting in touch with land councils to see if you can shoot on indigenous land if trying in NT or SA. Might have to give the locals some tucker but I imagine you could find some good hunting in those areas
Patrick makes a great point. Getting in touch with the councils is a great idea :)
what rifle/cartridge/bullet did ya use sir?
30.06 :)
Awesome, my friends and I are going on a Holstein cow hunt, farmers turned out the cripples and busted mastitis bags…he also said his wife had too many cats…it’s cool cause we got 14 Holstein tags and there’s no limit on cats, yes sir Barney Fife said we are all paid up and legal…….ha haaaaa haaaaaaaa haaaaaaa
I have no idea what you are talking about Adam haha.
What an adventure
I also want to hunt but I don't have opportunity 😢
That's no good. What's stopping you?
So strange to see camels with no big humps
100%! It was weird for me too. I hadn't seen one with no humps.
It turns out that the single and double humped camels are the two different types. The Dromedary Camel, also known as the Arabian camel, has a single hump and is commonly found in the Middle East and North Africa. Its the one we have here in Australia.It is adapted to hot desert climates and is more slender and taller compared to the Bactrian camel. The Bactrian Camel has two humps and is native to Central Asia, particularly in the Gobi Desert. It is adapted to cold desert climates and is stockier and robust than the dromedary camel.
Weird!!
What caliber rifle? How far of a shot? What grain round?
30.06, 50m, 180gr
@@Thehuntsmanshow might try 300mag next time. That camel took all three rounds and hardly flinched lol. Job well done look forward to more videos
Can you please tell me about the gun you used ?
Sure can. It's the Tikka T3X in 30.06. A brilliant rifle
I love this way. I don't know way. Bad sleep,
Bugs all around, no shower. Smells like shit. Difficult food. Dangerous life.
Is it possible to make money from this style? Thanks buddy.
It is a great lifestyle, and you can make a living doing it. But it's not easy. But like anything in life if you work hard and put your mind to it you can accomplish amazing things.
I Will make delicious rendang from that meat a lot.
Camel rendang would be amazing! Its one of my wife and I's favourite dishes.
Hyper pod 3 looks like a knock-off of the Primos TriggerStick
There are a few key differences. The Primos doesn't mount to your rifle. This is the whole point of the Hyperpod series from @eagleyehuntinggear8002 , so that you don't have to carry it. It's the feature that makes it completely unique in the market. It's also not a tripod like the Primos TriggerStick. It's a monopod with the option to add a bipod on the bottom.
@@Thehuntsmanshow I didn't even realize it attached to the gun, I was referring to the trigger mechanism!LOL! Sorry!
Lol all good Jerry. I think you are right about the trigger. I believe it's a separate component and product retrofitted to the unit. :)
Soo sad not good
Why so?
You are not starving not hungry, you lack nothing. No need to celebrate after taking another life. The ancestors gave thanks.
My family and I are not starving or hungry BECAUSE i do what is right and harvest my meat ethically from the wild places. This is why i celebrate. This is how i honor my ancestors.
Jesus loves you and is with you
God bless you too :)
Ugh

The eating wild game meat is the essence and heart of our community too.
It must halal
It must be respected.
The Choice of music while the animal is dying is poor. I’m a big hunter but the moment of death is a sober moment
Hi David. Thanks for commenting and sharing your thoughts. I agree with you, it is a sobering moment, but it's also a moment of joy. The death of an animal you've hunted is a complex event not easily explained. To pretend the animals death has no value shows a lack of respect for the life you've just taken. To not celebrate robs you of the joy and satisfaction for all of the hard work you've done ethically hunting that animal in the first place. It's both a moment of sober reflection and joy for me.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, I appreciate them. Chris

Well tether than waisting all the hunted animals like wild pigs, camels, monkeys etc. yes you should sell for food not only in Australia but other countries too as it’s a market making and money making business waiting to be made!!! Specially in countries where meat is eaten!!!
It's a good idea. The only reason it doesn't happen is because of the apparent cost of the exercise. Which is crazy. We will pay thousands of dollars for helicopter fuel, pilots, professional shooters, thermal tech and ammo... But apparently it's too expensive to pay a ground recovery team to harvest meat from the thousands of animals culled...
