    The young elephant bull that ran after the big bull was shot, is called an Askari. He was being tutored about life and behavior by this great old bull! Other than their genetics they hold an extremely valuable role in elephant society.

      I must say that this was a "set-up" video, no doubt about it. I came across Jeff Rann in the early 80's when he appeared on several Peter Hathaway Capstick's VHS videos from Ken Wilson's, "Sportsmen on Film" series. A great Professional Hunter, but to actually do the hunting, while the host is implying that he is hunting and never takes a shot is disconcerting. I did hunt an elephant back in 1989 and while both the conditions and Professional Hunter were less than what you see here, it still was a memorable hunt. Not the best, simply memorable.

    I wonder how old Jeff Rann is now, May/June 2024. I was born in 1956 (S. Texas) and if I had the money I would book a hunt with him. He has the knowledge and is able to communicate with people and educate people with perfect tone of voice. I look at Jeff's belt and hunting regalia, looks full leather and cotton clothing and the trackers who work for him are perfectly respected and know what he wants them to do on the dangerous hunt with just a touch on the shoulder, I love this. I believe he wears tennis, just in case the double rifle misfires. Husain Bolt would be left behind. I would recommend to Jeff to have a beautiful print/canvas of this hunt with the MASSIVE BULL ELEPHANT made and sold to customers/hunters to put on their walls. Two creatures of God, face to face in the bush.

    Hunting elephants can be ethically justified when it is conducted as part of a comprehensive wildlife management strategy aimed at population control, environmental protection, and safeguarding local populations. In some regions of Africa, elephant populations have grown to unsustainable levels due to successful conservation efforts and the absence of natural predators. As a result, these large populations can exceed the carrying capacity of their habitats, leading to overgrazing, habitat destruction, and competition with other wildlife species. By implementing controlled hunting programs, authorities can regulate elephant numbers to prevent ecological imbalances and ensure the health of the entire ecosystem.
    Elephants are keystone species that play a crucial role in shaping their habitats. However, in areas where their populations are too dense, they can cause extensive damage to vegetation, water sources, and other natural resources. Overgrazing by elephants can lead to habitat degradation, soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity, impacting not only wildlife but also local communities who rely on these resources for their livelihoods. Controlled hunting can help mitigate these impacts by reducing elephant densities to levels that the environment can sustain, allowing vegetation to regenerate and ecosystems to recover.
    In regions where elephants and humans coexist, conflicts often arise due to crop raiding, property damage, and threats to human safety. These conflicts can have significant social and economic consequences for local communities, exacerbating poverty and undermining conservation efforts. By managing elephant populations through hunting, authorities can reduce human-elephant conflicts, thereby improving the safety and well-being of local populations. Additionally, revenue generated from hunting permits can be reinvested in community development projects, providing alternative livelihoods and incentivizing local support for conservation initiatives.

Nothing positive in killing the biggest and the best genetic specimens that are getting rarer and rarer and should be given maximum protection for the ultimate good of the species. How many hunting clients are interested in killing real problem elephants like crop raiders but have very small tusks? Those I would applaud, if there are any, but that’s not what attracts the big bucks. Culling and trophy hunting are poles apart. You’ve been listening to way too much propaganda.

      @@mikegunn3070 - it doesn't generate anywhere near the revenue that hunting does, by a couple order of magnitude.
      One example that comes to mind is the Timbavati preserve on the edge of Kruger. The quota they're issued by the SA government is enough to satisfy about 50 hunters per year. In any given year, Timbavati gets about 20-25K people on photo safari. The hunters generate about 65-70% of the revenue, the folks on photo safari generate about 20% of the revenue.
      Without hunters, even iconic parks like Kruger and Pilanesburg would cease operations quickly.
      Parks have their place, but being a big source of revenue isn't one of them. They don't even pay for themselves.

      Hunting elephants can be ethically justified when it is conducted as part of a comprehensive wildlife management strategy aimed at population control, environmental protection, and safeguarding local populations. In some regions of Africa, elephant populations have grown to unsustainable levels due to successful conservation efforts and the absence of natural predators. As a result, these large populations can exceed the carrying capacity of their habitats, leading to overgrazing, habitat destruction, and competition with other wildlife species. By implementing controlled hunting programs, authorities can regulate elephant numbers to prevent ecological imbalances and ensure the health of the entire ecosystem.
      Elephants are keystone species that play a crucial role in shaping their habitats. However, in areas where their populations are too dense, they can cause extensive damage to vegetation, water sources, and other natural resources. Overgrazing by elephants can lead to habitat degradation, soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity, impacting not only wildlife but also local communities who rely on these resources for their livelihoods. Controlled hunting can help mitigate these impacts by reducing elephant densities to levels that the environment can sustain, allowing vegetation to regenerate and ecosystems to recover.
      In regions where elephants and humans coexist, conflicts often arise due to crop raiding, property damage, and threats to human safety. These conflicts can have significant social and economic consequences for local communities, exacerbating poverty and undermining conservation efforts. By managing elephant populations through hunting, authorities can reduce human-elephant conflicts, thereby improving the safety and well-being of local populations. Additionally, revenue generated from hunting permits can be reinvested in community development projects, providing alternative livelihoods and incentivizing local support for conservation initiatives.
