Hey kids, Working on an article and needs some help. I'm putting together a piece on Roosevelt's classic safari and trying to compare costs from then and now and am having a hell'uva time with hartebeests Here's how they are listed in TR's book Neuman's hartebeest Coke's hartebeest Big hartebeest Jackson's Uganda Nilotic Which of these are still legal? And I'm guessing some have changed names or are known as something else today. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks | ||

I know Jackson's and Coke's are still available. Don't know about Neuman's. Never heard of "Big", Nilotic or Ugandan. On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||

Have you made inquiry to the contemporary jurisdictions TR hunted, as well as other jurisdictions in which these species are known to exist? 114-R10David | |||

Well, I want a Big, Red hartebeest. (Hope he doesn't have to be Stupid, too!) _______________________ | |||

Thanks for the help guys. As most of where TR hunted is closed to hunting, I'm mainly looking at if the species is available at all. I'll post my results when finished | |||

Jackson, cokes and neuman are huntable, never heard of the other ones, most likely they used to be called like that and now are known by another name | |||
