Towards the end of my July hunt in KwaZulu Natal, I had a bout of diarrhea accompanied with vomiting. Throwing up is exceedingly rare for me so it took me by surprise. I had a couple more episodes of vomiting a couple of days later including one in the airport which was quite embarrassing.

Hi everyone,

I did some searching on this page and found some older threads regarding this but wanted to check in on current advice or experience. I will be Moose hunting in AB, Canada this November.

If you have hunted one or both, can you share your feedback? Thanks in advance.
