Gerry McDonald
Cell: 079 660 2475

Welcome to Big Game Heli Services,
With more than 30 years in the industry and many flying hours, experience has served me well in the career I have a huge passion for.

My area of expertise is Game Capturing & Counting using the best technology and also the knowledge of doing a job as fast as possible with extreme accuracy. My experience in setting up a Boma at the best location always allows for fewer flying hours as well as saving costs to the landowner.
Anti-Poaching – I am currently involved with various Reserves in the Greater KPNR and also private landowners, assisting in the conservation of their animals.

Please feel free to contact me for any quotations.
Yours in Wildlife Conservation through Aviation,
Gerry McDonald
