Getting fresh updates from the bush in Ethiopia from my friend sure has me missing that great country.


Ethiopia is such a special hunting destination offering some species only found there such as the Mountain Nyala and Meneliks Bushbuck. The country differs in terrain and habitat having elevations over 10,000 feet across the mountain zones and one of the lowest elevations in the world found in the Denakil depression -410 feet below sea level and is one of the hottest places on earth. The country is extremely populated due to its incredible fetal lands for agriculture but within the protected hunting areas the game is flourishing.

It truly is a wildlife life mecca where the game and the habitat has a value.

Having done two Safaris to this great country and still needing to visit more of it i'm dream of making it back over to that great country for a few more safaris.
 
Dream hunt of mine!
 
Very nice animals. Congrats

That is not how I picture Ethiopia... interesting, thanks for posting.
 
Would love to see the mtn nyala mounted. His short hair and clean markings would be beautiful !
 
Amazing hunt and great animals. Truly a dream hunt for many of us.

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
