My cape buffalo, only one so far. I have a half passable photo of it, "in the flesh" somewhere on a transparency. I actually had run out of film and had purchased some Kodak film in Zimbabwe in 2002, and it turned out to be quite faulty. And the cape buffalo photos are what had suffered. So did not have a lot to choose from.

Anyway here are some photos of the shoulder mount and some other goodies.

An old bull, not long in the horns at all, but I was happy to take him as the first buff, as I had two on the quota. Hunted hard for the second but never connected.

I was happy to even get a cape buffalo at all, as this was the hunt where on day 3 in the Gwayi Valley when the "warvets" turned up and turfed us all, outfitter/owner and all off the property. A week later we managed to get a spot in the HHK concession in the Matetsi Safari area and take this old bull.
