South African, Canadian, and U.S. hunting guides will be on site. Dog lovers can check out kennels, trainers, products, and rescue organizations. A number of hunting and fishing seminars will take place throughout the event. A petting zoo will offer fun for youngsters, and concessions will fuel the exploration. Advance tickets are available at Mega!
