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

"My brain hurts."

I know Jackson's and Coke's are still available. Don't know about Neuman's. Never heard of "Big", Nilotic or Ugandan.

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

Yes you do mate. If your anything like me its call "the wife"

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

Here are the names most used today:

BUBAL HARTEBEEST -- Alcelaphus buselaphus buselaphus of north Africa, also known as northern hartebeest. Declared extinct in 1996.

RED HARTEBEEST -- A. b. caama of Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe. Also known as Cape hartebeest. (Some believe it is a separate species.)

COKE’S HARTEBEEST -- A. b. cokii of Kenya and Tanzania, also known as kongoni.

LEWEL HARTEBEEST -- A. b. lelwel of Central African Republic, southern Chad, north-east Democratic Republic of the Congo, south-west Ethiopia, Kenya, southern Sudan, north-western Tanzania, and northern and western Uganda.

LICHTENSTEIN’S HARTEBEEST -- A. b. lichtensteinii of Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

WESTERN HARTEBEEST -- A. b. major of Senegal and northern Cameroon.

SWAYNE’S HARTEBEEST
-- A. b. swaynei of Ethiopia.

TORA HARTEBEEST -- A. b. tora of northwest Ethiopia and Eritrea
