Cabelas has a picture of a golden gemsbok in it's spring catalog. Where can the golden variety be found/hunted?

wapiti7Yo! I saw the same picture, but to my knowledge this is not a true sub-specie. But rather a color phase like a blonde black bear.......wapiti7

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......
"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."
You could try a search for York Safaris (Steenbokpan, Limpopo). Prepare for a big shock when the prices arrive!

I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good.

Just leave your gemsbok mount in the sunlight and shortly it will look like this to.

At first glance it apears to be a disfunctional recessive gene where the adult gemsbok remains the color of a calf.
