Its amazing what is out there. Mickey, I forgot who mentioned it to me.

South Australia (and Western Australia) would be magnificent eland and gemsbok country. Fat chance the government would ever let them in in any numbers.

Lions? We had a lion park locally a couple of decades only and when it folded the lions were sold live to taxidermists who shot them and mounted them for sale.

The early settlers made a big mistake bringing in deer and not impala, blackbuck, gemsbok, zebra, kudu etc. A few elephants on Tasmania would not have gone astray either.

Seriously our government is so anti-guns and anti-hunting that they would probably jail someone trying to import large amounts of "endangered" animals from Africa for "thrill-killing" by "gun-happy" sportsmen and women.
