After seeing the whale and dolphin thread I decided it was time for me to post a topic I've been meaning to post for a while. I want to hear your guys opinions on the possibility of opening a sustainable hunt for the great white shark. First of all, I am fully understanding of why people want...

I am fine with the harvesting of recovered whale species like minkes and humpbacks, though I'm not so sure about dolphins (though I think the shooting of crows is more unethical). I'd like to try whale meat myself. It's interesting, the debate about where we should draw the line. If primitive...

Here's a fun one. A ground sloth claw found in the late 1790s in North America was first thought by Thomas Jefferson and others to be from a giant lion (which he called Megalonyx, now known as Megalonyx jeffersoni). His paper on the fossils posited that not only were they from a giant lion, but...

I would not hunt baby animals, female elephants that are pregnant or parenting, or gorillas.

Another good prehistoric location to hunt would be North Africa during the Mid Cretaceous. A combination of conifer forest, swamps, deltas and deserts inhabited by dinosaurs, crocodylomorphs and giant fish. Two of the largest carnivores, Spinosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus, were present, as well...

Earth today has a lot of unique and wonderful wildlife. Elephants and lions make impressive trophies, many invertebrates are fascinating, and many fish to catch. However, 99.9% of species that have ever lived are extinct. Among them were many species that would make great, challenging hunts and...

I would love to hunt in Africa someday, which is why I joined this forum. However, such a trip is a long while off due to expenses. Although it is too long away to make detailed plans, I would like to put some rudimentary plans into action (basic guidelines, outfitter recommendations, animals to...

Mosasaurs, plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs. Mosasaurs were giant marine lizards, plesiosaurs were long-necked reptiles unrelated to anything alive today, and ichthyosaurs were fish-like reptiles. There were also marine crocodiles and lizard-like animals called thalattosaurs, as well as many others...

Dinosaur bones are rare in New Zealand, only a few found in the North Island and the Chatham Islands so far. All of my dinosaur fossils are bought. We do have a lot of marine reptiles though.

Hello AfricaHunting.com. I am a New Zealand collector of all things natural, odd and wild, mostly fossils at the moment (I love dinosaurs) but also taxidermy items, bones, and random oddities I find in beaches such as pieces of dead animals (not protected species, but ones you wouldn't see...
