T manBig Elephant
I won't be able to do something like this for some time but if you don't mind satisfying my curiosity, where are the best elephant in africa right now and some outfitters in that area?

I didn't go up there to die, I went up there to live.

Unfortunately at this time USA hunters can not import the Ivory from Moz.
A lovely 100 pounder from this season.

You take them to Mexico or Canada where you have your second house and then drive over the border

..Just kidding you just send them to Sweden to be stored until you can get them imported

L. David KeithBig ivory is where you find it, and that depends greatly on luck. Namibia's Caprivi, Botswana, Zambia (20 permits this year), Zimbabwe can on occasion produce good ivory, Tanzania, Mozambique (no import for USA) and at times RSA. Are you looking for thick tusks or long tusks?

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......

That's true for NG42, but in Johan's other areas it's the $5K per 10# over 59.5 lbs. The daily rate is a little higher in the other areas though.

I'd love to say that I can take care of it for the lucky hunter but sadly Australia does not allow the import of any Ivory.
