    Questions about the Golden Wildebeest

    In my opinion it is a blue wildebeest. Also in real life it is a blue . I see no issue entering it. That’s like having a separate category for a white bison . It’s still a bison

    Who else subscribes to Field & Stream magazine?

    It’s not that we need them but that the desire to hunt them causes spreads . I read the article yesterday and reached out to a high fence guy I know to see what he’s thinking . At the end of the day you cannot wipe out the animal and have people hunting them. Too much money in that

    Pig/hog damage to crops

    Financially ready for a Safari?

    No respondent financed their safari or played an equivalent shell game This part I enjoyed the most . It’s also probably why these people can enjoy nicer things and the “splurge” of safaris . I see so many people put wants on credit then complain they can’t get ahead .

    Age of first African hunting trip
