I have been looking for a buffalo hunt next year. I have all the money saved, the 401k is full, taxes paid up. I have been looking for a non RSA/Zim hunt.( This is not a jab at RSA or Zim just wish to go someplace new)

I don't have the bucks to do a 21 day hunt...just looking for 10 day hunt with 4 days for travel.

Botswana may cost more than I wish to spend. Moz looks good... have talked to a few people who say it is pretty rough.

Tanz looks good (if you get a honest outfitter).

What has really shocked me is they have a few farms in Zambia that they raise them like cattle.

I was dissappointed to see a pet cape buffalo around the camp fire. Then they show pics of this thing following them like a pet dog.

I think I will pass on a semi-tame pet buffalo from Zambia. This strikes me as sickening as the canned Lion hunts from the RSA.

What do you think..... is a farm raised cape buffalo as bad as a canned lion?
