$ 78K for a 10 day Trophy / Ele hunt in Letaba!

I just got an email from Fauna Safari Club offering a 10 day hunt on 12,000 HAs in the Letaba Safari area bordering Kruger Park in the RSA. The cost which includes the trophy fees for both the trophy elephant and the buffalo is $ 78K. I know this area has always been pricey, but it seems the closure of Zim and Tanzania for importing ivory to the USA is definitely having an impact.


STAY IN THE FIGHT!

Weight restrictions in all open concession with Kruger are limited to 70lb, any one marketing it as a bigger bull will be working outside the given mandate by Kruger,

It's a good area only problem is the 12000 hectares it's a small space to work if the Elephants are not in the area,

As for the Price, it's cheaper than what we sell our Trophy Elephant and Buffalo combo in the Timbavati

I believe certain operators in Botswana got more than that for a similar elephant.
