Description

Bring the thrill of African plains to your archery range with the Warthog Large (Replaceable Core) – Group 2 (17.2kg) 3D Target. Inspired by the rugged and resilient warthog (Phacochoerus africanus), this target is built for serious archers who demand both realism and durability.

History & Background

Warthogs are native to sub-Saharan Africa and are well known for their tough nature and survival instincts. Their name comes from the distinctive facial ‘warts’—actually thick protective pads—that help them during fights. Despite their intimidating tusks and rugged appearance, warthogs are primarily grazers and use abandoned aardvark burrows for shelter.

Physical Description

• Dimensions: (H) 740 mm x (L) 1100 mm x (W) 230 mm

  This 3D target faithfully replicates the muscular build, bristled coat, and distinctive tusks of the warthog, offering an authentic shooting experience. The replaceable core ensures long-lasting performance during heavy use.

Location, Area & Habits

Warthogs inhabit savannas, open grasslands, and lightly wooded areas. They are most active during the cooler mornings and evenings, often seen kneeling on their front legs while grazing. When threatened, they burst into a fast trot and retreat into burrows tail-up—a familiar sight on safari.
