Mixed hunting in Uruguay from 1st May to 15th September: partridges, snipe, turtle doves, wood pigeons, hares and ducks. Abundance of prey, high degree of professionalism of the guides and hospitality are the visiting card of this country, which it presents to hunters wishing to make a hunting trip in South America.

Every hunter who practices hunting tourism internationally knows Uruguay and the opportunities it offers. This country's habitat, and its government protection, has led to the proliferation of native game, particularly partridges, snipe, turtle doves, wood pigeons, hares, and ducks. Environmental policies have yielded positive results, so much so that for several years now, many hunters have considered Uruguay a must-visit destination for those seeking a rewarding hunting trip. Beyond its huntable wildlife, this country also stands out for its warm local hospitality and the availability of accommodations for visitors, often offering expert guides to accompany hunters to hunting reserves. Many online testimonials claim that traveling to Uruguay is highly rewarding, thanks to the abundance of game.

 

The huntable species in Uruguay, as already mentioned a few lines ago, are partridges, snipe, turtle doves, wood pigeons, hares and ducks, for which a distinction must be made for the periods in which their collection is possible.

Turtledoves in Uruguay make a profuse passage throughout the year, both in the north of the country and in the south. For these birds, the legislation of theUruguay it does not foresee capture limits, consequently there is a considerable safety margin in terms of the number of prey that can be killed. The areas with a high concentration of partridges are located in the north of Uruguay, near the large plantations of soybean sunflowers and pampas, which extend along the coast and rivers. According to some official data, each bar of hunting to turtledoves in Uruguay requires the use of more than a thousand cartridges, a number that can give you the idea of ​​how much fun it can be to settle these birds. The huntable species for which many organizational structures in Uruguay have specialized is certainly the partridge which can be hunted from May 1st to July 31st. The guides have in fact acquired a considerable specialization and a high degree of professionalism towards partridge hunting, with excellent guarantees of success in terms of game bag at the end of the day.

Also from May 1st and until September 15th, the ducks are the protagonists of hunting trips. The latter take place mainly in the lagoons and in the marshy areas, in different ways: in stalking near the shore; in places built using natural vegetation and using artificial ducks and Labrador retriever dogs. Finally, the presence of guides accompanying the hunter, having a deep knowledge of the hunting areas, significantly increases the number of specimens killed at the end of the day. In Uruguay, ducks are present in the subspecies Picazo, Malcero Siriri and Facia Blanca.
Those wishing to make a hunting trip in this country also have the opportunity to settle snipe, wood pigeon and hare, always with excellent results for the number of individuals killed. South America is a continent that attracts many hunters from all over the world, and in particular Uruguay is experiencing a significant increase in bookings for hunting trips. The abundance of prey to hunt, the hospitality and professionalism of the guides who accompany the hunters in the reserves, mean that Uruguay is becoming the favorite destination for many hunters who travel to South America.

Uruguay, officially known as República Oriental de Uruguay, is a South American state.

The total area is 176.220 km², with a population of 3.431.932 inhabitants, with Montevideo as its capital. It borders to the north-east and north with Brazil, to the west with Argentina, to the south with the Río de la Plata, to the east with the Atlantic Ocean.
Uruguay is a presidential republic, whose current head of state is José Mujica Cordano. The official language is Spanish.
Some historical sources assert that the territory of present-day Uruguay was inhabited since the seventh millennium BC by small groups of nomadic populations, while the first settled population of which we have certain information is that of the Charrúas.
The official history of Uruguay begins in 1516, but there are two versions of the discovery of this country: the Spanish source attributes to Juan Díaz de Solís reaching the mouth of the Río de la Plata by discovering the country, while the Portuguese version wants the mouth was discovered two years earlier by Portuguese explorers.
It is certainly known that the first permanent settlement was founded in 1624 in Soriano on the banks of the Río Negro. The following era was characterized by constant clashes with the Portuguese who claimed sovereignty over the territory.
Despite the disagreements between the Spanish and the Portuguese, the current capital Montevideo was founded in 1726. Uruguay is the second smallest state in South America after Suriname.
The territory of Uruguay is located in a transition belt from the Argentine pampas to the hilly parts of southern Brazil. Much of the country is located on a vast lowland with rare hill formations, which hardly reach 500 meters above sea level: the best known are the Cuchilla de Haedo in the north and the Cuchilla Grande in the eastern part of the country. To the west, along the course of Uruguay, there are large swamps often flooded by the floods of the river. In the south-eastern part of the coast there is a narrow coastal plain, sandy and characterized by lagoons, while the coast overlooking the Rio de la Plata is steeper.
The highest peak in the country is Cerro Catedral (514m asl) followed by Cerro Ventana (420m) and Cerro Colorado (299m). in general the country is rather flat, since only about 10% of the territory exceeds 200 m asl
The land is quite fertile and exploitable for agricultural purposes, while the wooded areas are rather limited, representing only about 5% of the territory.
Uruguay is a country rich in water, to the point that its borders to the east, south and west are bordered by major rivers or stretches of sea. The country's river systems are essentially three: the rivers that flow westward feed the Río Uruguay which borders the border with Argentina, the banks of the Uruguay river are characterized by plains periodically affected by disastrous floods. The most important of its tributaries is the Río Negro which crosses the entire country from north-east to west before flowing into the Río Uruguay. The main tributary of the Río Negro is the Río Yí. Rivers that flow eastward flow into the Atlantic or into lagoons, generally have a shallow depth and variable flow. Many flow into the lagoons of the coastal plain, the largest of which, Laguna Merín, marks the border with Brazil. Finally, southbound rivers flow into the Río de la Plata.
From a climatic point of view, Uruguay has a difference between north and south: in the northern part of the country the climate is subtropical, while in the south it is temperate offering weather conditions similar to those of Italy and Spain. The average annual temperature is 17,5 ° C, with January being the hottest month, with an average temperature of 32 ° C, while the coldest is June (average of 6 ° C).
Precipitation is distributed throughout the year and ranges from an average of 1000 mm / year up to 1400 mm / year in the northern part of the country. The winter semester is usually drier than the summer one, the wettest month is March. In winter there are frequent intense cold winds from the southwest, called Pamperos, which hit the coastal area.
The transport system consists of approximately 2900 km of railway lines, all 1435mm gauge, diesel powered, and only 11 km of double track. It certainly cannot be said that it is a state-of-the-art railway network, since half of the latter is abandoned, while only freight trains pass in the Montevideo-Rivera-Livramento, Piedra Sola-Tres Arboles, Sayago-Minas, Verdum- Planta ANCAP, Carnelli-La Teja, Chamberlain-Paysandu-Salto-Concordia and Algorta Fray Bentos. Work is currently underway on the reopening of the 25th August-San José-Ombucitos section, while the reopening of the section to San Josè for passenger traffic is underway in December 2006.
Uruguay is trying to implement environmental preservation plans, having established the Ministry for the Environment (Ministerio de Vivienda, Ordenamiento Territorial y Medio Ambiente) in 1991. This institution fights the major environmental risks related to the pollution of rivers, land erosion and the lack of a waste recycling policy. The planned construction of two paper mills along the Uruguay River has led to numerous demonstrations and diplomatic negotiations with Argentina. 1% of the territory is protected, 0,1% is partially protected.
