It might not matter all that much but I just read that the MAJOR Ethiopian Trophy Fee increases which were announced earlier have been postponed and will not take affect until July '09. According to the Hunting Report, hunters with scheduled safaris before and up to this time should not be subject to the new fees. Supposedly this delay will allow Government officials and Outfitters to try and reach a more rational arrangement.

What I found remarkable was that Ethiopia had not increased costs since 1995. This strikes me as highly unusual, especially in Africa. However, such a dramatic jump seems unreasonable and would appear to be detrimental to the hunting industry in Ethiopia.

Jealousy = greed = outrageous fees. Or maybe just as simple as Monkey see, Monkey do.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

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."
