Hippo hunt

[Amon458]

How much does a hippo hunt cost and does it cost more to do it on land?

We do hippo hunts on the Zambezi, but at present hippo can't be exported from Mozambique. 7 day hunt @750$ a day, trophy fee 3500$.

 

[Amon458]

Is Mozambique the only country that doesn't allow you to export.

 

[siml]

Yes, at present, hopefully the govt will get their paperwork in order.

i would say in SA the going rate is between $6k- $7500, but be carefull there are outfitters that sell PAC animals as CITES ones. Get some references and do your homework on the operator
All the best

Hey I have seen the package animals mentioned a few times now. What is the deal with this? By the way people mention it I assume it is not a popular choice.

A PAC animal is a Problem Animal Control hunt and are not normally exportable.

Thanks Jeff, that is what I thought. So the main problem is misrepresentation of the ability to export?

I find it intriguing that a PAC or DCA animal can be marketed in advance, and overseas....

Is this just me?

Nope, I was thinking the exact same thing.

OK Jaco, now I see the problem. Thanks for the response guys didn't mean to hijack the thread. I only asked because very early in my planning phase I found multiple SA outfits offering me a hippo hunt with archery gear (a peronal dream). Many said the word pac, I was told it was illegal so I moved on to different outfitters.

 

[Amon458]

No problem kai and I don't want to do a night hunt crop raid hunt just meet a large bill on land early in the morning or evening that's reasonably priced.
