There's an Elephant in my Backyard!

I hope they didn't do to much damage, how awesome is that though. SA may have a very Big elephant sized problem if Botswana doesn't get their shit together though.
 
that's amazing and so interesting...have they moved on?
 
Have you heard on what they plan to do with them? I would guess they are breaking alot of stuff and how many times do they think you should need to fix your fences.
Would there be a good chance more could come along following the two.

Last I heard they were talking to the Elephant Foundation to have them captured and relocated.

But there are some issues involved... Funding being one...

So far only the 2 bulls have been seen and it appears that they're heading back the way they came from... Probably realized that the grace period our Government have to illegal immigrants to apply for visas expired on Dec 31st, 2015 and their chances of getting a visa now are slim lol.

Or they realized the grass is not that much greener on the other side - who knows?

As cool as what it was to have them here I hope they're really on their way home. Fences aren't cheap... And I won't be here to fix them for the next 3 weeks as I'm en route to the N/America...
 
Wow Chris, how are Sabina's Horses and Dogs reacting to the Visitors

Rob, you know Sabina... Dogs in the house and horses in the stables until this "threat" is gone... LOL

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts

Hi PaulB,
I have a Ballard Arms Model 1885 chambered for .333 Jeffery Flanged. Do you have any idea where I can get ammo for this?

I am new to this forum so I am sorry if I am doing something wrong!
Thank You!
