Can the tsessebe, roan, red leche, and sitatunga, be taken on one trip to the Caprivi Strip?
 
Dear postoak,
It all depends what area your looking at for those species in the caprivi strip (now called the Zambezi Region)... Red Lechwe will not be a problem for most of the Zambezi region, Sitatunga are only in certain areas in the Zambezi Region. Roan would be more widely spread just below the Zambezi Region, as well as Tsessebe...

My best

Thanks! You guys see what I'm getting at here? Those four species plus the Sable make up what I call "the expensive five". It's pretty easy to find Sable that have been transported to outside their native area -- Kowas, for example has some - but the others not so much. I'm looking for a place where I can get all 4 at one place.
 
The anchor will be the Sitatunga.
The other three, as you noted, can be found "outside their native areas".

One way or the other, there will be some travel involved.
Two dry country species and two water lovers.
 
I was just going by Wikipedia. It shows all 5 occurring natively in the Zambezi Region of Namibia. I'm trying to avoid going to Zambia, Zimbabwe, or Mozambique.
 
Great questions. There are famous "areas" of Africa that I would either love to see & or hunt (i.e. Caprivi, Okovango, Kruger, etc.)
 
More expensive, poltical situation, tsetse flies, if I have to go through RSA, then double gun red tape.
 
They all occure here in good numbers. We have quota on red letchwe, roan and sable in most river areas, some other areas do have sitatunga (although one area that had it last year, does not have any on quota this year.) I see LOTS of tsessebe in my area, but as far as I know, not one Caprivi area actually have them on hunting quota.
 
Karl at Ndumo would be my go to for this hunt or anything in the Caprivi.
