Is this fixed in writing or is this talk to be happening ?
It however looks better before the first talk of the price increase. Still not great though.

I'm assuming the Concession fee changes will have the biggest effect as that is what affects the day fees?

I'm not familiar wth the previous trophy fees, so perhaps I'm wrong but does someone have the old costs, or perhaps a percentage increase on the trophy costs?

So what does a full bag 21day jaunt come to now then?

That information as posted is incomplete and contains at least one typo error ....... but more to the point, it is NOT Government confirmed until the relevant Government Notice is issued, and when it is, all the info will be on it. Until that happens, it's not much than chinese whispers.

Although the info is incomplete, it is mostly correct as far as it goes, but let's wait until the notice is published in it's entirety.....

Also bear in mind that even then, the prices will be Government prices and don't allow for other factors such as profit margins and running costs etc etc.

As to whether number of hunters will drop, time will tell, but I know of at least 4 or 5 large companies that are either fully booked already for 2008 or almost so.

Chill out guys...... Things are never as bad as they first might seem Wink

Gentlemen,
The Government HAS NOT issued a written notice showing the NEW fees. Until then, the above cannot be taken as fact.

Let us stay calm while we wait for the final Gov statement. It should be out tomorrow as promised.

One of the few upsides is maybe outfitters will now allow more game on a 10 day safari. Meaning purchase a longer license for a shorter booked hunt. It's one thing I was never happy about when comparing TZ to the south. The south was more "pay as you go" with the hunt negotiable between the client and safari co.

I've heard directly from PHs mouths that the TZ way is the way it SHOULD be, if you want the nicer antelope for example you have take out a license for (nominal $$) AND book a 21 day ($$) hunt at DG day rate. I was also unhappy about the mystery surrounding the old 16 day license. No one, and I talked to quite a few, was allowing the option of say a 10 day safari on a 16 day license in order to get say a hippo.

I don't recall exactly if this license was 14 or 16 day and it didn't have that many more species on it but there were a few, specifically like one I wanted like the hippo. It didn't include kudu though, as I recall, so it wasn't perfect (for me) but it was better than 7-10 with buff, zebra and a couple lesser antelope.

What I am most curious/concerned about is after all this shakes out - with concession fee increases and operator mark-up on the gov't trophy fees - what will the all-in cost be for the good-old 10-day 2-buffalo 1x1 hunt in someplace like the Selous.

I suspect the guys that are able to pay $50K to $100K are going to continue paying $70K-$120K to hunt Tanzania, at least in the top areas (the lesser concessions are probably in trouble). Maybe not the SAME guys, but enough.

Showbart,

Regarding your point of hunting fewer days on a longer licence. I'm suprised to hear you had problems finding anyone to offer this. We do and so do most of the other companies I know. I hunted with 3 or 4 clients who chose this option this year and we already have a number of similar bookings for 2008 & 2009.

Bill C,

I don't know all the exact details yet, but do know most of them and assuming the Government Notice says what it's expected to say, I'd bet that bookings won't drop much.... except perhaps at the very bottom end, which may not be an entirely bad thing for all parties concerned. - Although that said, the falling dollar might possibly mean fewer Americans and more Brits, Euros, Aussies and Kiwis etc.

Can someone provide a link or let me know what additional species would be available on a 10 day license instead of the old 7 day? Original post indicates Reedbuck and baboon I think. Any others?

A Moz. OR Zim. buff hunt is looking better and better all the time, especially when you consider that croc, hippo, and sable can be added on for the costs of trophy fees and perhaps 3 more hunting days tacked on.

TJ,
There are 2 ways to look at this;
1- Every Big Game license has a 5 of each species of birds listed on it. You shoot any of those and you pay the "trophy fee" stated above Eeker
2- You buy a "Bird License" for $200 plus $100 p.d. additional Conservation fee, for each day you want to shoot and you can shoot 50 birds per day with no Trophy fees. So if you take this license out for 3 days, it costs you $500 in Gov fees, you can shoot 150 doves and they come to $4 per bird Big Grin

Who determines "package"? Isn't it the outfitters? As far as the gov't is concerned, this release, doesn't package mean license? there is no more 7 or 14 day license? Don't the outfitter and client negotiate and determine the duration (# days) of the "package"?

The Game Department decide what licences will be offered and each duration licence (now 10, 16 & 21 day licences) will have a different list and number of species that can be hunted on each licence.

For example, the old and now defunct 7 day licence allowed the hunter to take 2 Buff, 2 Wildebeest, 1 Impala, 1 Zebra, 1 Warthog & 1 Hartebeest.

This sometimes varied slightly dependant on area & quota etc...........

The prices seem reasonable but what animals will be available on each license. And how do these prices equate to the hunter since there are always a premium added by the safari company on each animals cost.

The additional premium, if any, is frequently dependant on whether or not the safari company has to operate year-round anti-poaching patrols. Premiums are usually less of a factor in areas like the Selous where anti-poaching efforts aren't as necessary. You usually see about a $2,000 difference on lion fees there, for example, as compared to other areas.

God only knows, Lee, and as usual, he ain't talkin'. Big Grin

These fee increases are not welcome by any of us, but let's face it, can we name anything besides the dollar that is getting less expensive these days?

Price increases are inevitable. TAHOA did a great job in knocking these back to somewhere near reasonable, IMHO.

Let's not forget that the crazy bastards in Tanzania banned hunting altogether back in the '70s. Without prior notice, in mid-season, while hunters were in country and on the ground!

More evidence if any were needed that the time to go is NOW!

Perhaps the opeators will reduce the daily rate on the 10 day to at least make it slightly comparable to the 7 day overall cost and make the money on the TF's. All in all, I would suspect that the Gov TF of $1900 will be retailed out at $2500, same as Zim. This of course is pure speculation. Just means if you wish to hunt TZ you save a little longer or plan on taking a few less animals and just enjoy the experience as you should anyways.

I agree!

Looking back over the last ~7 years, all of the hunts that I have been on have increased significantly in price, in some cases doubling (lion in Zambia). Not just Africa, Dall sheep in the NWT is up $3500 from two years ago ($21,000 w/flight to camp!). This year I am going after two of what may be the last of my "must-have" trophies to mount. Bongo and bighorn were on that list but they are out of reach now.

IMHO, The same applies to those who want to hunt DG w/their favorite double...do it now while flying w/guns is still relatively simple as who knows what it will be like in a few years.

Mike and Bill,

I agree with you. I'm booked for 21 days in Masailand with Luke Samaras through Wendell Reich in 2009. This will be a once in a lifetime hunt for me, so I definately plan on going unless the prices take a huge jump again; in which case I wouldn't be able to afford it.

On the good side there's only 18 more months to go until I hit Masailand!!! dancing

Anyone else notice that they also lowered the min elephant requirments (Length and weight).


If you have that much to fight for, then you should be fighting. The sentiment that modern day ordinary Canadians do not need firearms for protection is pleasant but unrealistic. To discourage responsible deserving Canadians from possessing firearms for lawful self-defence and other legitimate purposes is to risk sacrificing them at the altar of political correctness."

Reducing the minimum tusk size/weight has got nothing to do with increasing revenue. If it were, they would remove minimums for all the key species & permit hunting of females etc. The reason they've done it, is part of a long term, ongoing plan to increase the numbers of big tuskers in Tanzania. - When hunting was banned in Tanzania, poachers moved in and shot a lot of the Elephants, particularly the big tuskers. Later, when hunting was reintroduced, firstly run by Government and later re-privatised, they wanted to increase the numbers of big Elephants and over the last few years (especially) they have been steadily lowering the minimum size because, as part ofthat plan, they now want to reduce the number of 'middle aged' Elephant bulls, of which there are now a large number...... Hope that helps.

I should be so lucky! (although I'd prefer whisky!) ...... I didn't say I particularly agree with the idea. Frankly, I only see a few areas every year and that isn't a broad enough overview for me to comment on whether the overall/long term plan is working or not - but that's what the GD tell me is the theory behind it and they tell me it is working. - 2006 saw a 100 pounder taken (albeit by a game ranger) and in 2007 they re-opened Elephant hunting on normal licence in Masailand. - Although I have to say, it had a bloody silly bury or burn request to go with it!

They dropped 2 kgs or .2 metre for 2008, in 2006 they dropped 2 kgs or .2 metre, and if I remember correctly, it dropped by 2 kgs or .2 metre in about 2004. Certainly, (at least from what I see) they're right in that over the last few years, I seem to see an ever increasing number of elephants that are 'almost, but not quite shooters'. During that same period, (04-07) I have personally been seeing a small increase in numbers of bigger Elephants. As an example, at the end of the 2006 season, we had two stunners ( one about 70 odd pounds and the other about 80 odd pounds)running around the block. Unfortunately all the hunters we had coming through were on 7 day licences! Whether that is just chance or not, I don't know. As I said, I don't have a broad enough overview to comment.

On the one hand, the reduction in size/weight does make it easier for the PH because if the client shoots an undersize Elephant, there's a big fine etc involved. So smaller minimum means less risk of a stuff up...... BUT it might be counterbalanced if the client expects the PH to call the weight on a mid range tusk that is just under the price rise limit.

Tanzania has some of the strictest game laws and most well known advisory Zoologists in Africa and sometimes the game laws are a pain in the ass for the PH to comply with - BUT their policies work for their areas....... and they seem to ensure trophy standards are maintained and often improved. So I don't resent them at all. If they say it'll work, I'll believe 'em.

Tanzania Trophy Fees

The schedule of 2008 trophy fees for Tanzania is now available. You'll recall that the hunting industry there recently struck a compromise with the Tanzanian government over the huge trophy and concession fee increases announced earlier this year. For sure, not everyone will be happy with the new fee schedule, but the finalized agreement is certainly good news for safari operators and would-be clients in a quandary these past months over the 2008 season.

Below are both the new fees and the previous schedule of fees for comparison:

Seems the price for birds is a bit outrageous.

Remember that these Increased game fees are the government fees NOT the fees that a client will be charged. Last year the fees my safari company charged were 150+% of the government fees for the game I shot. I may be out of the game forever.

Dogcat,

There's also another way to shoot birds where you buy a bird licence and pay an additional cons fee. BwanaMich posted the details higher up this thread.
