Does that price include removal of the ear-tag or is that extra?

Admit that was funny but I'm sure that price is part of what has helped white rhino to increase in overall population.

I don't understand why people take personal shots at Outfitters offering LEGAL HUNTS in this area of the forum!

This is the hunt section, not post your opinion section. Why harass a man who's trying to make a living?

Otjandaue Hunting Safaris MORE POWER TO YOU! if I had the bills, we would have a dead rhino on our hands.

The cost of advertising on AR is real cheap, you just have to have some pretty thick skin.

Many on the site feel no hunt is ethical if there is a fence in the same provence. They also know that rhino are too valuable to range free and unrestricted.And if there is any doubt about it's status the fact that a picture of your trophy can be provided certainly speaks volumes.

A rhino hunt of yesteryear is not possible. To some, the substitute that is available today is worth what the experience will cost.

I wish all involved nothing but the best and hope that someday rhino may be hunted wild and free again.I will not however hold my breath until that day.For now, hunts such as this one will have to pay the way to ensure the continuued survival of the species.

Well said Eyedoc. I ran camera on a green Rhino hunt that went bad. Rhino fell wrong and the silly little gorl that was from Nature Conservancy gave it the antidote right off. It woke up with 11 people within 10 meters. The PH had to shoot it to keep it from killing the NC bird. I aked him if he missed. He said "I wanted too."

Rhino have been saved by hunters and hunters alone. It is a good thing that there are enough to hunt again....I can't hunt them though ...looks too much like my mother-in law.

I hope someone has the hunt of a lifetime on the hunt and posts lots of pics for us little people.

For Christ's sake lighten up fellas! My comment was made totally in jest...didn't you see my little smiley face there?

With that said, I would have no problem ethically shooting that Rhino if I had the $78,000 to spend. As far as I know, there are no free-range Rhino hunts available anywhere, so if you want to kill one rather than darting one, this is the only way to do it.

There were 3 Black Rhinos allowed to hunt in Namibia.
Trophy fee was stated to be $250,000.
I understand one was taken so far...

Best Regards,

Tom

A way to save a buck on your Big Five Award if you just happened to have a .500 Nitro in the gun rack of your pick up. And only a few minutes down I-95 from my house!

I thought I read a Russian Client shot two Black Rhinos.

this exceeds my financial reach, but I am glad to see the program herd will support shooting one nice bull.

Someone will have a unique trophy in his den.
