Bolivia is the world’s new Mecca for high-volume dove hunting. Fifteen to twenty million eared doves (Zenaida Auriculata) migrate from Brazil each April to feed on central Bolivia’s millions of acres of sorghum, sunflowers, and soybeans. Hunters in Bolivia routinely expend 60-100 boxes a day on shoots in a great variety of settings.
The Shooting
Bolivia’s eared dove — like doves worldwide — offer fast and challenging shooting. The difference here is their monumental numbers. The intense action lasts 2-3 hours, then hunters take the short return drive to the lodge for cocktails, a lavish lunch and a long nap, returning to the field mid-afternoon to witness the awesome spectacle of the doves returning to roost until late in the afternoon.
