ok, so saw one in the taxidermy forum, now i wanna know how common or whatnot it is to find one in RSA, insee they got theirs in eastern cape are they else where or whats the details on them...
Mike, that hunt is on my bucket list.kafue lechwe
Maybe because pheasants aren't behind a fence?If they are on a big enough property and are 100% self sustaining i have zero issue hunting them in RSA. Dont want a put and take animal by any means!!! Thats my opinion and its kool if ya dont agree. Pheasants in the states are imported but know one really seems fo have the same opinion on them...

Look, generally, I agree with you. I have taken a number of game animals from behind fences on game ranches. However, there are several African (and other animals worldwide) that are iconic hunts based upon their environment and the hunt. For instance the Hartman Zebra hunted in his native mountains is a super challenging hunt. Pot him on a game farm and he's just another zebra. Eland on a small farm is rather like shooting an angus - walking him down in Namibia makes him a totally different creature. Bongo from behind a fence (they're available in Texas now) is rather sad - digging him out of an equatorial jungle is one of the great hunts on the planet. I could go on. The Kafue Lechwe is one of those incredible hunts where you must wade deep into a low grass marsh and shoot far and true to take one home. If I see one in a trophy room, I really want to hear about the hunt and the shot. If the story begins "while I was in the Limpopo …." I'd just as soon take my drink elsewhere. That's my opinion and also "kool" if you don't agree.
