Heading to Zimbabwe soon for a mixed bag hunt. Besides elephant, what’s not allowed to import back into the USA?

Depends on the whims of the USFWS at any given moment.

Depends on where you hunt...

If it’s a US blacklisted owner, nothing...

As to otherwise, elephant is not technically banned, rather it’s reviewed case by case...and they haven’t reviewed anything yet.

The one I know no one has done for a while is cheetah.

I don’t think they allow anyone to hunt rhino, either. (That’s Zimbabwe ‘s rule, not USFWS)

Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but I believe Brown Hyena is not importable

You are correct, just had this discussion in Zim last week. Saw 3 while we were there.
