Following on from the extinct animals thread. If you could travel anywhere and any time, what would your big 5 be? They don't have to have existed in the same period. Just existed at some point.
Cats. I would love to hunt tiger, Indian, Russian, Indonesian; black mane lion in Kenya, a Barbary lion; and rounded out with a 120 + elephant. I would really enjoy those hunts.
Well if you can go to anytime and want a 100-120lb tusk elephant, how about a 200-300lb tusk mammoth? Cave lion twice the size of current lions, 2000+lb cave bear, megaceros with a 12 FOOT antler spread, ancient croc 30+ ft

Mastadon, Irish Elk, sabre tooth tiger, auroch. Only big 4 but acn't think of a 5th at the moment. All done with a classic english (probably H&H) double in 450 NE.
I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
