The mountain gazelle or the palestine mountain gazelle.

The United Arab Emirates and Turkey both have a conservation success story done trough the sustainable use conservation system, although the amount of individual animal that can be harvested is very limited.

What is it?
Arabian Oryx. Like the N./Saharan/Scimitar Oryx, thanks to zoos and wealthy ranchers, their stock did NOT go extinct. While I do not enjoy seeing animals caged up, those places do serve a purpose when it comes to re-establishing species where necessary...
 
+1 but I would swap out eland with the bushbuck. Eland is #1 on my ‘want’ list though, the type of hunt really appeals to me.
Once you have eaten Eland that bushbuck will fast become a memory...lol (And they don't taste too bad, either!) I want to be an Eland rancher!!!
 
Eland and then on top Lord Derby.
The grace with which these giants tripple in the field always blows my mind.
There are at least 3 species (in order of ascending filet size): S./Common, Livingstone's, Lord Derby.
 
Other: In retrospect, I love them ALL! One of the reasons to hunt.

Clearly he has adapted! (we found his mask, snorkel, and flippers on a nearby island!)
 
All are great in their own way. But, bushbuck first then roan. Impossible to pick one- really.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
