Yeah. I've read about the AMO stories... Makes one apprehensive on Asia. There seems to be much more reliable info on African outfitters, and most seem to be on the up & up.

Thanks for the leads. Has anyone dealt with a trustworthy Kyrgyzstan outfitter directly? Nothing against booking agencies, but I've heard they are adding a large fee on top ($3-4K) for ibex hunts. Or maybe it's worth some level of protection?

Any outfitter recommendations for a quality outfitter or booking service? I'd love to do this hunt before I get too old, but read a lot of stories/reviews of hunters having issues with licenses, disorganization, areas over hunted, getting trophies back, etc. Also, any outfits to stay away from...

Starting to look at a Croc/Hippo hunt. Who are the companies that run their own camps/hunts at Cahora Bassa? It appears like there are outfits that "facilitate" hunts there, but may not be the actual operator. I'd prefer to book directly, and also not pay for a 2nd PH (facilitator).

Í'm a fan of our native sheep. But, sometimes they seem like a very fragile species and it's a constant struggle to even maintain their populations. I'm in no way saying this is right, but I have selfishly wondered if we'd just be better off importing asian sheep and ibex....

Any resolution to this? Been a while...
