Founded in 1853, King Ranch comprises 825,000 acres in South Texas. Throughout its history, King Ranch has established itself as a leader in both ranching and wildlife management. King Ranch’s primary focus is on the stewardship of the ecosystem and land.

As a result of these efforts, King Ranch is the premier hunting destination for many game species in the United States. King Ranch conducts all of its hunts in a low-fence, fair-chase environment that offers great opportunities for both experienced and novice hunters. In addition to ensuring that you have an unforgettable hunt, our professional guides are deeply knowledgeable about the history of the Ranch and its legacy. King Ranch’s magnificent wildlife and incredible beauty can only be experienced in person.

Two hunters will experience South Texas trophy nilgai hunting. This hunt will include a two-night stay at one of King Ranch’s commercial lodges. One bull or cow each will be included in the package. King Ranch first acquired nilgai brood stock principally from the San Diego Zoological Garden in the late 1920s. Today, there are over 12,000 nilgai on King Ranch’s Norias division. Nilgai are challenging to hunt, given their impressive eyesight, hearing, and sense of smell. All of these elements make our nilgai hunts an incredible hunting experience. Depending on what the conditions dictate, nilgai hunts can be customized for still hunting, stalking, or safari style hunts.
