The Minister of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment, Ms Barbara Creecy, has confirmed the quotas for the trophy hunting of black rhino, leopard and elephant in South Africa for 2022. The 2022 quotas for the hunting and export of trophies of these three species is a deferral of the 2021 quota allocation, which was determined after the end of the hunting season in 2021. The deferral grants stakeholders the opportunity to make use of the 2021 quota in 2022. Consultation for the 2023 quota will take place during the course of this year.
