Muskox.
You don't hear a lot of people who have hunted them.
From what I understand, shot placement is extremely difficult.
Hard to judge the body with all that hair covering it.

Rumours has it it’s also extremely difficult to get the musk out for a mount. A friend of my fathers had a lodge in the Yukon until he passed dad said he had a full body mount that still stunk five or six years after it was done.

I think that your question basically refers to countries where hunting is allowed by law, but generally there is no outfitters or local organizations that advertise the hunts (by internet or international agencies).
So, this will be a tough search.
Gizmo,
A lot of hunters have completed their "xyz" "animals of the world" on ranches such as yours. I am aware of a ranch at Hondo that hosted an extensive African hunt for a person which even included Giraffe. From the pix, you could not tell it was not Africa. I saw a pic of the Giraffe standing in the trailer used to move it to the ranch! The operators had fun planning the route - had to assure head clearance.
I also had a deer lease next to a central Texas ranch that had a small herd of Bongo. He kept them in a pasture near his horse corrals at the center of the ranch. It was in a wooded area south of Comanche and was all high fenced. You may remember back when the Ostrich craze passed and the darn things were released and often seen running the bar ditches.
Wow that giraffe hunt must have been quite a thrill. I wonder if they released it or just shot it in the trailer so they could quickly get it to the meat processor?

If you have the travelling spirit and an adventurous soul there are some incredible places and amazing animals to hunt.
Some that appeal to me include, but are not limited to;
Maral stag in Kazakstan.
Moose in Chukotka.
Bezoar Ibex in Turkey.
Red stag in Europe.
Mountain Caribou in Alaska.
Tahr in Nepal.
Markhor in Afganistan.
Giant Forest hog in CAR.
I think this is a great choice for a hunt. Have you considered trying for Greater Currasow and Crested Guan? There used to be hunts offered for these 3 birds. I haven't looked into this for some time.
Yep, they are on my list too. When I save up some money my list for mexico will be the occelated turkey, currasow, guan, and caoti. Hopefully I can make that happen within the next couple years.
Yep I have considered texas as my cousin owns an exotic game ranch down there. I would love to travel to some exotic places and hunt animals in their natural habitat. That being said I have considered hunting animals like addax and arabian oryx and other animals like that where you either cant hunt in their native range or its really hard to.
Not a hunt but an amazing rush for anyone lucky enough to try is harpooning swordfish. Standing in the pulpit trying to time your throw while the spray beats in your face. You’ve got to time both the movements of the fish and the movements of the boat amazing feeling when everything works out right.

Is this rifle sold? If not what is the weight of it and do you know if there is enough difference in diameter between the 35W and the 9.3 to allow for a rebore to a 9.3x62 which is what I am after?
Thanks,
Gary (Just down the road in Springfield)
Forgive me if this is the incorrect area, I signed up to this forum just now because I wanted to be on the list to purchase a copy of your autobiography. Please feel free to pass my information along to whomever is selling. Thank you so much. I look forward to it!
I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
