tom murrayexport trophies from Zimbabwe
I have 2 pedestal trophies almost ready to export from Zimbabwe to the USA. I was wondering who would be a good shipping agent or should I attempt to do it myself. I have used Fauna and Flora once before with good success but would like to expolore other options also.
I do not live close to a port of entry which might complicate things a bit. Any advise would be appreciated.

I would deal with Andy Hunter in Zim and let him sort out the agents to work with on the US side(ie make recomendations) Andy is very professional and will certainly do a good Job

505 gibbs2nd vote for Andy Hunter, as far as US side, depends where you are and where trophies are going.
I have used and been very happy with Maria Euripa-Felix at Hunter International Brokerage Services. They may be found here:

L. David KeithTom, importing mounted trophies require a lot less pain, with the cost of shipping being the largest issue. Depends on where your at in the US. If you wish to email me, I'll sort out your shortest route and who I would recommend. Apparently, your going to need the trophies shipped to your door.
Regards,
David

Here's a third vote for Andy. My taxidermist (Lyons and O' Haver) in San Diego who has been in business for 50 years says he is one of the best. By the way, I just completed a month long safari with Andy. Chewore North and Botswana for lioness, buffalo, tuskless, and bull elephant. You won't be disappointed with Andy Hunter.
