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.

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.

Just saw this.

I was there. 5 days after I got my lion. Got to put a collar on one of them. What a treat!

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.
