Apparently a goodly part of Australia's violent crime problems are caused by what would have to be described as financially comfortable older Americans on expensive hunting trips in remote areas.
We did have a German tourist go hunting humans in remote northwestern Australia in 1987. He got five before the cops got him. I don't know what the figures are for American tourists though
.
This has resulted in a the entirely understandable requirement that said hunters provide reams of paperwork to the Australian government in order to be allowed to bring a couple of bolt action sporting rifles and a few boxes of ammo.
AFAIK for the Northern Territory it is a 2 page form, which your guide can complete for you, together with some sort of document from your home jurisdiction showing that you are allowed to possess the firearms there. You also need a Customs form to bring the firearms and ammo in. Hardly "reams" of paperwork - not even a quire
. AFAIK at least the same volume of paperwork would be required for me to come to the US with rifle and ammo to hunt.
And what's to hunt out there? 'Roos? Pigs? Wombats?
Depending on where you go and what floats your boat Water Buffalo, Banteng, scrub bulls, camels, horses, donkeys, pigs, several varieties of deer (Sambar, Rusa, Red, Fallow, Hog, Chital), goats, hares, rabbits, foxes, feral cats, Magpie Geese, several varieties of ducks, and probably a few more I've missed
. There's an ongoing campaign to get crocodiles onto the list too.
You won't get all of those in the same place though: "out there" is a big place
