Thank you for sharing! Not sure I ever got where they were taking the elephants!

I'm sure if you pinged Phillip at Ivory Trails Safaris, he'd tell you. IDK, either, but it's nice to see the ele populations up.
 
Really impressive undertaking!
 
Did you guys happen to catch that list bit...totally paid for by hunters! Yay us!

I did! So I went on line to check out their website. I only found reference to photo safaris. I thought that a strange omission as the Bubye overtly supports hunting.
 
Sorry for the glitch, I remember attending a relocation in the northwest frontier of Kenya in 2000. Helicopter was used to dart but lots of locals sang and dragged by rope the family unit into closed trucks for the trip further north. It was quite interesting
 
These elephant were relocated to the Zambezi Valley and released in RIFA safari area. Used to be a hunting concession but is now run by Hemmersbach Rhino Force as a non hunting area. Funded by a German guy I believe. I have done a few Rhino/lion capture exercises and it is amazing to get so close to those animals.

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
