HUNTING Elephant

...they hope to break the neck, but mostly it only wound and then days of following the weakened animal....

Gentlemen I am visiting my daughter in Brooklyn New York next week. Is there a museum in the area where I can see a full mount of an African elephant or even the skeleton? Going to hunt in Namibia next year. Thanks for any advice. Only Asian elephants in Australia.

The American Museum of Natural History across from Central Park has a great diorama of elephants. It is especially amazing because Carl Akeley did the taxidermy over 100 years ago. There are also some other amazing animals like Giant Sable. Well worth the visit IMHO.

Than you very much. I look forward to visiting. I trust my 5 year old granddaughter will not be asking difficult questions [emoji3]
 
Thank you Wheels. A magnificent display. They even have a separate exhibition on the hidden life of elephants with a projection of the elephants heart, lung, and digestive system.

Thank you wheels. Fantastic display. I think visiting here is a must before hunting for these magnificent beasts.

Not sure your price range. Have a 375 H&H with a muzzle brake. Nice rifle only fired a few times. Also a Mossberg 375 Ruger its been used and shows a few hunts on it.
