Cow elephants with young calves
03/07/06 03:21 AM

Just for discussion.

Reading Will Stewart's book on hunting tuskless cow elephants and other discussions on line, I note it is the practice to not shoot tuskless cow elephants with young calves at foot.

Now many countries allow cows or females with young to be shot, as long as the calf is shot as well, eg moose in Sweden.

With elephant numbers being so high in Zimbabwe would not it be acceptable to shoot a tuskless cow elephant as long as the calf was also despatched?

What do you think?

PS I know it is probably not within the law or regulations, this is not a discussion on the legal merits but the game management merits.
