Sambar Deer

Sambar are the largest wild deer species in Australia and one of the most difficult to hunt. The high country regions of south east Australia feature the largest wild Sambar herd in the world, far greater than those found in their original home of India.

Harvesters use state-of-the-art infrared cameras and drones to identify the location of deer populations without alerting their attention. Healthy animals are selected at a distance and harvested with a single head-shot from a suppressed rifle. Harvested animals are inspected in the field to ensure that they are free from disease. The meat is then transported to the processing facility under full inspection.
