Most people think of Plains Game in association with Namibia. However, there is very interesting hunting for Elephant (with excellent ivory) and also Lion in Namibia. Right now, we have been offered a trophy Ele hunt (expect 50lb or better per side) at $32K all in, 14 days; and we can also offer exportable Lion at $7.5 to 15K sliding scale, daily rate is normal PG rate. These are wild marauding lions, not SA-style captive-bred beasts. The only catch is this is an opportunistic hunt, you have to be there when it happens. But the good news is we have access to several farms where lion make these incursions so your odds are not bad. Worst comes to worst, you have a decent PG hunt and you aren't paying outrageous daily rates. Drop me a PM if you are interested.

Russ,
How does a sliding scale on a wild lion work?

I think he explained in another thread that there were different prices for lionesses, young males, and older males.

Here it is:

We can arrange a marauding lion hunt in Namibia, up against Etosha park. You could get into an immature male, a female, or a maned male. Trophy fee ranges accordingly, from $7500 to $15000. This is not a sure thing, but on a two week hunt you have an even chance of an encounter.

Thanks Charles.
