Quote:

Back in 1972, when I spent three weeks hunting in Tanzania, my bag included:
2 Elephant
5 Buffalo
1 Lion
1 Leopard
1 Sable
1 Kudu
2 Impala
2 Hartebeest
3 Wildebeest
4 Zebra
2 Warthogs and
2 Permits (including one for my photographer friend, who confined his shooting to his Nikon)

The total came to 19,220.-- Tanzanian shillings or, at the rate of 6.999 shillings to the dollar, $2746. The sable was 900,-- Tanzanian shillings or $128.59.

Those were the "good old days"!
