Out of curiosity can you explain lion categories

More hair higher the category from what I seen on offers in the past....your choice........

 

[buffybr]

Are these lions importable to the US?

 

[Aaron N]

How can you say zero daily rates and then charge more for a four day hunt as compared to a two day hunt?

Edit- ones for lioness only. My apologies

 

[PARA45]

Zero daily rates on the packages offered. If you want to hunt additional days, you pay a daily fee. My lioness hunt (not with this outfitter) was 5 days, and it was all included.

I don't believe these lions are importable into the US. This is a CBL hunt, and don't be fooled, it is an exciting hunt you are on the ground face to face with these predators.

 

[Siennacoyote]

So if not importable what exactly do you get besides shooting one

An importable lion would cost you 10 times (if not more) than what you are paying here. No one can take away the experience of hunting one of these predators, and you can have pictures of the animal you took. That is what some of us who have done this type of hunt have done.

BTW, I have no affiliation with the outfitter. I'm answering based on my experience with another outfitter, and if you look in the forum, there are others who have done similar hunt like the one being offered here.

I personally hunt for the experience not the trophy. I harvested best deer of my life recently and didn’t do a shoulder mount. Just not what I’m interested in.

 

[Daisy]

I wasn’t worried about ethics . It’s trophy hunting for sure . I’m looking at financials and justification if I wanted to ever hunt a lion .

I didn’t mean that disrespectful. I agree that most of my travel hunting is 100% for me and I have no ethical dilemma with it.

For a CBL an exact replica skull can be molded from your trophy, or a taxidermy replica can be made. Pictures, painting, and professional videos also make great options.

Where did you get your skull from?

 

[Justbryan]

I've just done some research and know some on AH have done skull replicas. Someone else will need to answer your question.

Splitting Image does them, they will also do a full skeleton. Their are also companies that will do a full replica body mount if you would like. It's not cheap (25-30k) they offer shoulder mounts too(12-15k) it has been a few years since I talked to them.

Not necessarily. I don't want to derail the thread but that is just not completely accurate...

I don't think it would derail the thread. Many people don't know, including the OP. Any insight on pricing would be of benefit IMHO. I would also like to know if you are speaking on exportable or wild that is not. The lines are very gray in this area, atleast from what I have been able to gather.

I have to fully agree with this!

If you are after the mount to be in your house, that SA hunt and a replica is not as expensive as that's sound. Because if you do the replica in the US, you don't have all the costs of importing. Dip and pack, import broker, export permits, transport in Africa, air freight, clearing costs, possible storage fees, ground transport in the US. The taxidermy cost. It adds up!

Another option might be to buy a mount from someone who wants to sell theirs or their grandfather's.

do what i did…fabulous hunt, see my posted video on here where the lion charged me dropping at 7 yards, take great pictures with a good camera, then have your best picture oil painted on canvass and hang in your office

$3500 for a lioness $5,000 for first grade of make, $6500 for mid and $8,000 for highest end
