Mongolian gazelle range across the vast eastern steppe of Dornod and Sukhbaatar, in herds that move fast and unpredictably across open grassland. There is little cover on this terrain, so a hunt is built around patient glassing, reading how a herd is moving, and shooting at genuine distance rather than a close stalk.
It is a different discipline from mountain hunting, and suits hunters who are comfortable with long-range shots and open, exposed country.
| Species | Mongolian Gazelle (Procapra gutturosa) |
|---|---|
| Region | Dornod, Sukhbaatar |
| Terrain | Vast open steppe grassland |
| Shooting | Long-range, open-country |
| Season | Set annually by the Mongolian hunting authorities; confirmed at enquiry |
Herds are located from a vehicle or vantage point, then the approach continues on foot across open ground with almost no cover. Because gazelle move fast and change direction without warning, a hunt can involve several repositioning before a shot presents itself.
Patience and reading herd behaviour matter more here than in almost any other hunt we arrange in Mongolia.
