1. Green Rino 2. Buffalo 3. Leopard - 4 tries before sucess, but it was worth it big Tom, with dogs. 4. Hippo 5. Elephant day after Hippo 6 Lioness Probably will not hunt any of them again except maybe Bull Elephant - first one was Mgmt bull. Just too interested in the Pygmy Antelope and the Spiral Horned. They are just more fun! | |||

Yes to Ghana, but after Ethopia. I do want a Royal but the Mt Nyala, Menlik, Lesser Kudu and some other bushbuck are so tempting. My PH just informed me he is exploring Uganda which brings the Sitatunga into the picture. More money and more time, desire is not a problem, eh. | |||

Buffalo Lion Leopard (Hippo) Elephant (Crocodile) Rhino Oops, I didn't realize people were putting in dupicates -- my OldTimer's disease makes that problematic. When you get bored with life, start hunting dangerous game with a handgun. | |||

Elephant (1st hour of first day of first safari) Buffalo Buffalo Leopard Buffalo Buffalo Croc leopard Buffalo Hippo Hippo Lion Buffalo Hippo Leopard Elephant Buffalo I'm hoping for one more lion but if I could take a bongo and a Mountain nyala I'd feel pretty complete as an African hunter.
