Elephant most definitely! I’ve looked at a lot of the old stuff and with the advent of game farming and the shrinking of quotas for most plains game I would say the quality of the trophies today have a slight edge. That being said many of the old photos may have been meat hunts. There would normally be a lot of so-so heads with one or two giants mixed in. Just my non scientific observation.

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
