Is anyone familiar with this company in Ontario, Canada? I am looking at them to handle my trophies this next safari.

+Hi there just saw your post I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND these guys their work is incridble and they have their own safari operations as they own their safari concessions all over , they also specialize on African species and their turn around time is amazing 6 months , i have done four safais with them , i also saw over 10 safari crates at their studio from different clients allover Africa. Pay them a visit you wont be disapointed

I did some research on this guy, then ran like hell!

The owner is Cyril (CJ) D'Souza, whom also seems to be the owner of the above post raving about how wonderful his company is. When I talked to him he tried hard to sell me a safari in Tanzania, even though he knew I'd just come back from there. He almost wouldn't even talk about what I'd called him for. It was bizarre.....

I'd called him as I'd heard he had a legal way to get elephant ivory into the States through Canada as finished museum quality pieces and I thought it was at least worth looking into.

His demeanor set off my "Spidey Sense" and I did some research. I found this thread, as well as the other links posted below.
