Hi
Sorry to bring up this topic again. But does anybody know now for sure that it is "official"? Honestly this just doesnt make any sense.
There have been many changes in Botswana.
Over the last five years there have been many news releases on the subject.
The way this was forwarded from a mass email got everyone worried.
BUt, the change is coming form everything I can find from any source.
Big game hunting will apparently continue in the following concessions:
Butler &Holbrow Safaris / Chobe Enclave CH1/2 -
end of 2013
Calitz Hunting Safaris / Mababe NG 41 -
end of 2017
Hunting on private game farms is not effected.
Elephant hunting will continue in some fashion. Ongoing "take off" for management.
Since there is NO Professional Hunters Association in BW, so I can not send you to them to ask.
Nothing really new in what I have said here, just a reiteration really.
