Cow ele. They charge unprovoked on a regular basis!




I voted cow ele as my one and only cape buff hunt was just a bit of sniping at about 50 yards. Was exciting to have several dugaboy a few yards away on the other side of a bush at one time though.

Regarding cow elephants, several times the PH said, including the first elephant I shot, "as soon as she sees you, she will charge". But no time was given her. At least another time, we saw a cow hiding behind a bush seeming to wait to ambush us. Again he said - "walk around the bush and she will come for you". The range would have been only a few yards. But again even before I cleared the bush she turned and fled.

The PH was perplexed as to why the cow eles weren't charging at all and running away instead. Would have got the two eles quicker if they had too.
