A millionaire American trophy hunter has been stabbed to death by a buffalo that was on a hunting trip to South Africa.

Asher Watkins, 52, was killed almost immediately when the big boar - one of the "five big animals" most wanted to be killed on safari - was released towards him on Sunday. It is not clear whether the animal managed to escape.

Hans Vermaak said on behalf of the tour organizer CV Safaris that Watkins was killed almost immediately in a "sudden and unprovoked attack" by the animal, which can run at speeds of up to 56 kmh and weigh more than 900 kg.

The millionaire trader was on the second day of a hunting safari, which reportedly cost $10,000, with a professional hunter and a tracker in Limpopo province.

Vermaak said: "It is with deep sadness and a broken heart that we confirm the tragic death of our client and friend Asher Watkins from the USA. We are doing everything we can to support the family members who are here with us and those who are back in the United States as they cope with this tragic loss."

Cape buffaloes, also known as the "black death" and known by their curved horns, are widely considered the most dangerous of the "big five" to hunt.

Despite their size - they can reach up to 1.72 meters - their dark, dense brown hair makes them camouflage well in safari bushes, according to experts.

According to the CV Safari website, "no species on the planet has a more formidable reputation than a Cape buffalo" and they are "responsible for several deaths and many injuries to hunters each year."
