    Any Interest In A Eland Cape

    I have a fully tanned Eland Cape I will no longer be needing. I will post in taxidermy forum if no interest is generated here. Please message me for details. I don't want to bother with an extensive thread if there is no interest. Thank you.

    Eland Mounts

    I am getting an Eland mounted soon. I am undecided about pedestal or wall shoulder mounts. I have an 8 ft ceiling and not sure I want to hang a shoulder mount halfway up the wall. I'm leaning towards a pedestal mount. Recommendations please

    I always buy insurance. I have air travel and deposit for a Safari in September. I'm wondering if coverage is extended to air travel and bookings with outfitters if travel is prevented because of a Pandemic. My hunch is it's not covered. It's usually for things like death of a close family...

    Airfares

    I did some searches on airfares to see what I can expect to pay next year. It looks like flights to the Johannesburg airport is cheaper than Port Elizabeth. I guess this would play into the overall cost of what the outfitter is charging. Also, if I booked a flight for next month or so compared...
