📣 Africa's First Social Network for Hunters · The Bush Telegraph
Banned Elsewhere. Celebrated Here.
Mainstream social media hides hunting behind "sensitive content" screens, blocked hashtags and quiet takedowns. The Bush Telegraph is the opposite — a live community feed built into the marketplace where you book the hunt. Post the story. Tag the species. Follow the PHs and farms who get it. Your hunt was never something to hide.
📷
Post the Hunt
Stories, trophy photos and film — full hunt journals or quick posts. Under your name or your alias.
👥
Follow the Bush
Follow PHs, outfitters, farms and hunters across six nations. Your feed, your hunting circle.
💬
Join the Conversation
Comments, @mentions, #hashtags and reposts — hunting talk without the apology.
🏆
Fuel Your Record
Every post builds your profile. Every trophy feeds ATRS. The story and the scoreboard, one home.

Hi Pieter, I'm looking at your 7-day Kudu package for September. Is there availability for 2 hunters?

Hello John! Yes, we have the 8th–15th September open for two hunters. Kudu are exceptional this season — several 55"+ bulls on camera already.
09:22
Perfect. What's included in the package? And can you also quote me a Zebra and Blue Wildebeest add-on?
09:25
I'll send you a full quote PDF through the platform now. You can book direct with a 50% deposit and pay the balance before arrival. Everything is managed through Safari Hunts — fully secure.
