the elephant is an elephant that we have to hunt for the community as part of the quota. they get some animals that they can harvest for meat. 15 years ago, people poached animals because they want meat and there was no value to the animal for them. now they know they must protect the wildlife. it s not only the meat, there is actually money going back to their pockets.
i was in the cattle industry for like 10, 12 years. and because we had a lot of game in the area, i had some other outfitters those years which always contact me and say, please, can i bring a client over who would like to come and hunt? and i say fine, meet the clients. and then i start meeting overseas clients. and it looked to me like it can become a good business. so what we offer our clients is there is a lodge. there is a jacuzzi and a hunting area. you can drive around, try and spot the animals. you get off and you try to get the client up to a point where he can have a clear, good shot at the animal. [ gunshot ] good shot. good shot, buddy. normally in the middle of the day, when it s really hot, we bring the clients in to the blind area where they can sit down for the rest of the afternoon. so it s making really comfortable.
