Not where I normally think of a 100# coming from.

Can you give us any more details?

Out of interest more 100 lbs ele have been shot in Zimbabwe in the last few years then ever before. This should be a point of celebration for successful conservation and NOT a witch hunt or a point for the antis to get on their high horse!

Which simply means that conservation works
Just looking at North American model as more record trophies/older animal hunted then ever before

Is the one in Plumtree the one shot by the guy from NZ? If not, a friend from NZ killed one he told me was 99lbs in July somewhere in the area up around Vic Falls somewhere. I have a pic of it but not to be shared.


Good Hunting,

Plumtree is on the south end of Hwange...Vic Falls is on the north end. If near Vic Falls...likely not the same.
