He was also the person in charge of the harvesting / culling team of the Free State Province Nature conservation department. Pierre Erasmus

Pierre resigned from conservation and relocated to the Lowveld where he became a full-time professional hunter and manager of private reserves where the BIG 5 roams free. Apart from hunting the BIG 5 with clients regularly, problem animals such as Lion, Buffalo and Leopard was in many cases part of Pierre`s daily routine.

Pierre`s vast experience in the hunting industry was acknowledged when he was approved by the South African Professional Hunters Association / Committee to become the director of a professional hunting school where apprentice professional hunters are trained in the fine art of hunting.
