It would be like the everything you knew about Canada came from a hunting area for Moose in British Columbia.
Spot on, Mickey, only let me add; "...and then paraded around like you were an expert in Canadian political economy..."
Sadly, and pathethically, I found in my travels some of the most ignorant {of national and local affairs} people I met were foreign tourist hunters. That was years ago. I hope things have changed.
As for myself, I have little hunting experience in Africa, really.
1980: Kenya & Congo {then Zaïre}; 42 days, hunting about 4.
1988: All throughout RSA {5,500 km car rental}; 30 days with one highpoint being a day touring the Musgrave Mauser plant in Bloemfontein, OVS!
1989: RSA {mostly Transvaal and Kwazulu-Natal}; 8 months, week hunting with the highpoint being the birth of my son in Grey's Hospital in Maritzburg!
