Good point, unfortunately, and for many reasons. Great trophy!

470EDDYAbsolutely SPECTACULAR!! Congratulations and WELL DONE to all!!
I think this magnificent trophy only solidifies the importance of US Hunters keeping the pressure on Congress to reverse the Ban and develop Scientifically Based rules and decisions!
Again, it is my opinion that if NOT changed by US, these legally hunted elephants will end up in the illegal trade....illegally stolen from African inventory.....go figure!!
Cheers,

boarkillerThat is exactly what I ve been saying
This ban more than likely increases chance the ivory that stays behind will end up in China or some other BFE...
" Until the day breaks and the nights shadows flee away " Big ivory for my pillow and 2.5% of Neanderthal DNA flowing thru my veins.
When I'm ready to go, pack a bag of gunpowder up my ass and strike a fire to my pecker, until I squeal like a boar.

And even if it did, so what. For probably close to the price of this hunt, a guy can get a little apartment in many parts of Europe (even by a beach) or, if wanting something closer to home, a little place in rural Canada. I am personally amazed that more guys don't do this sort of thing.
On this train of thought, many people in Zimbabwe or Tanzania can build house with what each of us spends on any hunt.
Sad fact of life, and no one can do anything about it.

boarkillerAbsolutely right Saeed
Probably whole farm or ranch, especially for elephant hunts.
But I doubt you could buy even apartment in Europe for that.
Maybe somewhere in Eastern parts where it is as corrupted as in Africa.
